I have a PrimeFaces data table that displays a set of users with a commandLink to delete on each row. When the link is clicked, a confirmDialog appears with a "Yes" button that should call the "delete" method in the backing bean. Unfortunately, this method is not called and the dialog is just hidden. The parameter from the link is set because I saw it with the debugger.

Here is my page:
