Description Andrew Fuerste-Henry 2019-12-05 14:10:20 UTC
To test:
- create an authority record with two 150$z fields
- create a new bib in the advanced editor
- link your bib to your authority
- note your two $z subfields have been concatenated

Tested this on master with specifically a topical term authority linking to a 650, though I don't suspect those details will make a difference.

I've tested with a 630 and two $x fields and have the same experience.
This seems to be a problem with the advanced editor and the linker. It is independent of a search engine (happens on both ES and Zebra).

We have a library reporting the same issue in the advanced cataloguing editor with the 610 tag and multiple $v subfields

Any updates on a fix for this? So far, we've had this most heavily affect 655 and 830. Related, doing a CTRL+B search on a heading adds all of the subfields like $2 to the search which then prevents the success of the search to link. Sometimes, linking has also removed subfields like $v and $2.

That sounds like you are talking about bug 25122.
