From one of our partners: When a patron chooses to place a hold from the from the OPAC details screen for an item, the system does not display the bib record of the item but takes you to your account login, then your account. Then patron must search for the title again, and ask to place a hold again before it is confirmed. I have confirmed this behavior. I think the requested behavior is for the OPAC to retain the search after the patron logs in so that the search doesn't have to be repeated again to get to the item they want to place the hold on.
I think this is Bug 15816, and should already be resolved in all the latest releases.
Thank you!
