Description Zachary Spalding 2010-11-23 18:30:05 UTC
After deleting a bib record in the cataloging module your our redirect back to a search screen.  It would be more helpful if the cataloger was redirect back to the search results list if they had any and not have to conduct another search again.
Comment 1 Paul A 2013-06-24 12:50:57 UTC
Confirmed as a most useful timesaver by our cataloguers (3.8.5). -- Paul
Comment 2 Marc Véron 2015-06-02 12:42:02 UTC
There is a nice workaround:

- From Search results or detail display, add items to your cart
- Open cart and make use of "Batch delete"

Comment 4 Katrin Fischer 2019-05-04 19:14:40 UTC
Bug 3005 asked for a success message on deleting a record. Could we imagine to factor this wish in here somehow? Maybe we could display a modal and let the user decide where they want to go after successful deletion? Or display a success message on the page we redirect to.

Bug 5428: Jump back to the search result after deleting a record

This patch adds the ability to jump back to the search result after a
record has been deleted.
Also it keeps the "browser" when all items are deleted from a
bibliographic record

Test plan:
- Start a new search
- Select a record with items
- Delete all the items
=> You still see the browser
- Delete the record
=> You are back to the adv search form but we new link "Go back to the
results" is present at the top of the page

Limitation: As we delete the record we do not longer know the offset,
we are back to the first page of the result list

I'm not seeing the 'Go back to the results' link anywhere on the advanced search page after applying this patch and following the above step.

Comment 9 Martin Renvoize (ashimema) 2020-08-06 08:11:21 UTC
This now works as described so I'm signing off..  

However, I wonder if it might be nicer reverse the logic and redirect back to the search results by default instead of redirected to advanced search and displaying a button to get to the prior results...

I agree, it sent me down a path of adding this in other places, but I think we should file a new bug. 

If my follow-up looks good I am of the mindset to call this one a good enhancement after 10 years of waiting, and to do further enhancements on the next one.
Comment 13 Jonathan Druart 2020-08-07 07:08:15 UTC
Nick, your patch does not work for me, can you double check?

searchid is not passed the batchMod.pl

it works for me

the links don't have searchid, however, there is js that adds it when you use the links in the Edit dropdown
Comment 15 Jonathan Druart 2020-08-12 09:22:22 UTC
Nick, please provide a test plan for this last patch. What I am doing:

Do a search
select a record
select items in the holdings table, click "Modify selected items"
I am on /tools/batchMod.pl?op=show&itemnumber=37&itemnumber=36&biblionumber=14&src=CATALOGUING (not that searchid is missing)
click save
=> https://snipboard.io/lKhRQa.jpg
None of the 2 "Return to the record link" has the searchid
None of the 2 links redirect me to the detail view with the browser.

Comment 20 Mark Hofstetter 2023-08-09 07:35:53 UTC
the link 'Go back to the results' has disappeared at least up to 22.11.06.005 (maybe some changes in the js or the dom)
