Description Chris Cormack 2010-05-21 01:09:18 UTC


---- Reported by palani@orizin.net 2009-06-18 06:30:32 ----

1. search for a item which is not in database ( say 'lalalililulu' ), so that the search generates zero results.

2. Lets say, the user want to subsribe to the rss link ( user want to get updates on his rss reader , about book 'lalalililulu' )

3. but the RSS link on search page (with zero results) is wrong, it don't have any http GET parameter 'q=lalalililulu'

Comment 1 Katrin Fischer 2011-07-07 21:04:13 UTC
Bug still exists in master. 
Created URL is: http://localhost/cgi-bin/koha/opac-search.pl?&format=rss2

For a keyword search with results it looks like:
http://localhost/cgi-bin/koha/opac-search.pl?idx=kw&q=see&count=50&sort_by=acqdate_dsc&format=rss2
Comment 2 Katrin Fischer 2012-04-07 17:02:16 UTC
This is still a problem in master. If search has no results, RSS link is wrong and missing search parameters.

[SIGNED-OFF] Bug 3337 - RSS link is not correct for searches without results

RSS links for searches without results didn't have the search terms.

To test:
- Search for something with results and check RSS link
- Search for something with no results and check RSS link

In both cases your search should show up in the link.

Signed-off-by: Nicole C. Engard <nengard@bywatersolutions.com>

RSS Link works in both cases listed in test plan.

QA Comment: Looks good to me. Did not test it. Only adds two template parameters. No translation issues.
Passed QA.
Comment 6 Jared Camins-Esakov 2012-05-24 01:02:03 UTC
This will be included into 3.6.5.
