[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Bug in PUI search filtering?

[Blake Carver]

> Blake, any insight?

Nope, it does look like a bug to me, but I'm not sure on that. I'll look into it, and get a JIRA in if that's the case.

That is indeed what seems to be happening. For us it's not only with the date filter, but also the free text filter.

Search for fashion designers (113 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=&commit=Search

When I type critics into the filter search bar, 136 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=critics&filter_from_year=&filter_to_year=&commit=Search

Ha, and actually now I've tested it in my own system and this seems to be the case that when adding the date filter it switches to OR. Doesn't seem to be happening with any other filters though. Blake, any insight?

Hi Anna,

I'm wondering if something is happening to the default AND boolean - if you search fashion OR designers in the first place you're getting 5998 results, so it seems when you remove the date filter it switches from an AND to an OR search.

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: 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=&commit=Search

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
