This is the same issue as Bug 2933 (which included patch for 3.0.x) and Bug 3018 (which did not).
Created attachment 2496 [details] [review] Proposed fix for 3.0.x I'll attach this patch here as well since Bug 3018 is already marked as fixed. This patch should do the same for 3.0.x.
Hi Owen, The patch applied and fixed the issue, the only issue of note being that the patch threw a slight error on application for 3.0.6: error: patch failed: cataloguing/value_builder/marc21_field_008_authorities.pl:70 error: cataloguing/value_builder/marc21_field_008_authorities.pl: patch does not apply Looking over the patch code by hand looked fine to me. Maybe one of those things. In the end I had to run git-apply with --reject to get the patch to work and edit the last file by hand. Thanks!
Just an additional comment on this issue. Our users have been testing the newer releases, 3.0.6 and now 3.2.1 and note that this issue seems to be partially resolved by either the diff patch, or by upgrading wholesale to 3.2.1 via current release download. The [same] issue still seems to persist with the editor with some fields as we are unable to enter data in tag 1xx and 6xx in the cataloguing module. Would be really good if this could be fully patched in the next bugfix release, or with a patch in the meantime. Cheers!

Unable to enter data because the popup won't appear when you try to trigger it, or unable to enter data because you can't type in the input field? If it's the latter, you probably have authorities linked to those tags. You have to click the "..." link to trigger the authority search window.
Marking this as fixed unless someone can provide an updated report detailing continued problem.
