Description Fridolin Somers 2021-02-08 15:20:10 UTC
Item search always displays an item type filter.
It uses items.itype even when item type is on biblio level.
This is disturbing.
Comment 1 Fridolin Somers 2021-02-08 15:20:55 UTC
Should we hide this filter when item type is on biblio level ?
Comment 2 Katrin Fischer 2021-02-08 15:23:45 UTC
I think enabling search on record level might be nicer - I could imagin libraries still wanting to look that up, as it affects the circulation and maybe location of the items.
