[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Changing Main PUI Search from OR to AND

[Alexander Duryee]

Bailey,

Starting in ArchivesSpace 2.8.0, you can pass Solr parameters to the PUI
via config/config.rb.  The default behavior in a fresh installation is
mm='100%', which I believe is (mostly) equivalent to using AND as the
default operator.  I tested this on test.archivesspace.org (3.0.0-RC2), and
it appears to be using AND as its default - for example, searching
"benjamin stockton" (without quotes) returns "Benjamin and Julia Stockton
Rush papers" but not "Benjamin Harrison papers".

If you're using 2.8.0 or newer, I would check the config/config.rb to see
if the following line is present and not commented out:
AppConfig[:solr_params] = { 'mm' => '100%' }

For older versions, you'll need to write a plug-in to override the default
Solr parameters generated by the PUI.

Thanks,
--Alex
