Transitioning to state without notifying stops transition to happen

[alejandroiglesias]

Hi, in order to make a special transition that should not be intercepted by listening to $stateChangeStart event, i'm calling $state.go with {notify: false} options object.

$state.go('proposal.level', null, {notify: false});

The problem is that the state is never transitioned to, only URL is updated. My version of uiRouter is 0.2.7. Can't update, sorry, since something stops working in the app around 0.2.10 (will try to check that in the near future, but not in the current timeframe available).
I would appreciate any suggestions in how to achieve my desired result.
Thanks in advance!

Please post a plunkr that demonstrates the issue, thanks.

I had the same issue with UI Router 0.2.15.

I created a Gist with a MWE, as it is easier to play around with URL-based states.

The example checks whether a user is logged in (statically false in the MWE) and the redirects to a login page. When setting notify to false, only the URL is updated, but the template content is not set - the ui-view element is not filled at all.

@nateabele as there is an example now, would you please consider removing the label you've assigned?

notify false prevents the stateChange events from firing, which effectively prevents the state change from happening. I'm not really sure if thats the expected behavior. @nateabele ?
