Description Christopher Brannon 2016-10-08 17:23:07 UTC
When a child bib record is linked to a parent bib record, a link to the parent record shows below the child title, such as:

Test Fiction Title for Kindle [Coeur d'Alene] [eBook]
In: High demand fiction [Coeur d'Alene] Amazon.com, Inc

The link below the title to the parent record, such as above in the "In" line is incorrect.  When you click on the link, it does a title phrase search, but it is including the 101a field (author), which makes the search fail.

Either the 101a field needs to be omitted in a title phrase search, or the search needs to be changed to either a keyword search or a combo search.  Seems like this link should go right to the bib record number rather than doing a search of any kind, since it is already linked.

Current workaround is to edit the child record and delete the author in the field.

It works if you enable the syspref UseControlNumber, the link becomes

/cgi-bin/koha/catalogue/search.pl?q=Control-number:17446121

Would it fit your need?
