Description Nicole C. Engard 2012-06-18 16:47:27 UTC
I'm thinking that now that you can add in a limit on shelving location we should remove it from the pull down options at the top of the advanced search page.

Also, the one a the top doesn't seem to work still ... a bug i can't find though.

Heh in advanced search searching by the shelving location works if you use wildcards :) no idea why

shelving location => cart*
works for us.

My guess is it works because CART is the authorised value code in this case. 
I am for removing it from the pull down, as the users don't know the codes.

Could you please provide a screenshot with what you mean? We're struggling to understand this bug
Comment 5 Katrin Fischer 2017-01-17 22:54:45 UTC
Hi Grace,

try this:
- Go to the advanced search in the OPAC
- Click on 'more options' (this changes the pull downs)
- Check the pull downs with search options, there is now "shelving location"

The argument in this bug is, that since you can only enter an internal code there and there is a nicer option to make the locations searchable by their description (system preference AdvancedSearchTypes) it would be better to remove it from the pull down.

This won't get ported back to 16.11.x as it is an enhancement.
