Ghost filter for the page

I have a report with 3 pages. On two of the pages, there is field under "Filter on this paeg" which should not be there. When I check the Power BI Desktop (where I created the report), it is not there. When I click on "Edit" on the web site to go into the Edit mode, I also do not see it.

 

I did add it early on when playing with the report, but I deleted it later. But somehow it stays on the report, even though I have published a few more times. Click on it would make the report to be blank, as it is a field not on the page.

 

How do I get rid of such ghost filter?

 

Thanks.

    Thanks for those who replied.

     

    As it turns out, I had this field added under "Drill Through" under Visualizatons column, which caused it to appear under the filter section on the dashboard. Once I removed it, it went away.

     

    Thanks again for the help!

    Sounds like cache issue. Try refreshing the browser or clear the cache of your browser.

      I have copied the link to two different browsers on two different machines, same result, the ghost filter shows up. So I don't think it is a cache issue.
