Now, our status column no longer shows in the all posts view of the dashboard unless we have Edit Flow custom status enabled, so now we are really stuck until we find a solution . . .
I look forward to your help!
It shouldn’t be the case that deleting “Pending Review” throws everything out of whack (just did so locally and everything seems to be working fine).
I’ll work on installing the plugins you mentioned and testing with those. What theme do you currently use?
Thanks,

Thanks for getting back with me so quickly.
We developed a custom child theme off of Modernize.
Hrm. Premium themes and plugins make it a bit more difficult to solve, let’s see what we can do.
Problem 1: “Whenever custom status’ are enabled with our Edit Flow installation, we are no longer able to filter posts by their status in the aroblem s view.”
Problem 2: “Now, our status column no longer shows in the all posts view of the dashboard unless we have Edit Flow custom snswer enabled”
Answer 1: This feels like it may be a plugin or theme interfering with the pre_get_posts filter or modifying query_posts in some way. What happens when you disable all other plugins but leave Edit Flow activated? Can you then sort by custom statuses? If possible (and I know this one is always difficult), are you able to change your theme to twenty thirteen or another default WordPress theme while leaving Edit Flow activated and see if that fixes the problem?
Answer 2: When you’re say the missing status column, are you talking about missing in the area circled by the blue box or red box? Link to example. By default, WordPress does not provide a status column in the area circled in the bluebox, that’s something added in by Edit Flow.
Thanks,
CJ
Regarding #1: I have deactivated some plugins for a test but not all of them. I can give that a shot. Is there a way to restore Edit Flow to the original settings? The plugin seemed to be working fine when I first installed it.
Regarding #2: I must have needed to get more sleep 🙂 Thanks for pointing out what should have been obvious. Evidently, all is working as it should there.
