[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Bug in PUI search filtering?

[Anna Robinson-Sweet]

Hello,

We just noticed what appears to be a bug in applying filters to search
results in the PUI. When we run a search on a phrase that is more than one
word, and then apply a filter to those results, we get more results in the
"filtered" search than in the initial one. When we remove the filter, there
are even more results than either the initial or filtered search.This only
happens when the initial search phrase is more than one word and is not in
quotes, suggesting that the filter turns the initial search from an "and"
query to an "or" query, or something along these lines.

Here is an example of the problem:
First search for the phrase fashion designers (without quotes) returns 113
results:

When I add a date filer 1950-1960 I get 393 results:
https://findingaids.archives.newschool.edu/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&op%5B%5D=&q%5B%5D=fashion+designers&limit=&field%5B%5D=&from_year%5B%5D=&to_year%5B%5D=&action=search&sort=&filter_q%5B%5D=&filter_from_year=1950&filter_to_year=1960&commit=Search

And when I remove the filter I get 5,998 results:
https://findingaids.archives.newschool.edu/search?q[]=fashion+designers&op[]=&field[]=keyword&from_year[]=&to_year[]=&filter_q[]=&sort=

Has anyone else encountered this or have any ideas what may be causing the
problem?

Thanks,
Anna
