Description Katrin Fischer 2016-12-05 22:42:46 UTC
To replicate:
- Open an existing record in your catalog
- Create another field or subfield of a field/subfield already used using the icon to repeat it
- Verify that the content is copied over
- Verify this happens for input (one line) and textare (multiple lines)

I can't make this happen for when creating a new record, but more consistently on editing existing records.

This is rather annoying when cataloguing in Koha, as the cataloguer has to empty the field first and that adds an extra step for each repeated field.

Confirm than the content is not copied when you clone a field or a subfield.

I have been unable to fully replicate the issue, but have found one occurance of an "input" field including content when copied.
I have successfully replicated the issue with texarea fields (multiple lines).

When testing I find the patch has fixed my single "input" field issue.

But the "textarea" field still includes content when cloned. Specifically this was 520 $a. Content is still copying across
Comment 3 Josef Moravec 2017-01-13 06:57:09 UTC
Yes there still remains last occurence of this bug - textareas when clonning whole field - typically 5xx in MARC21
Comment 4 Katrin Fischer 2017-01-13 07:11:20 UTC
Something that might be good to test: When an input field contains a lot of text, next time you open the record it will be shown as a textarea. The 5xx seem to always display as a textarea.
