Collections: Explore Collections and Collection banners issues #764

Open eporter23 opened 4 months ago

eporter23 commented 4 months ago

This ticket relates to the Blacklight upgrade testing from Feb 2024.

When attempting to view Collections in digital-test I have encountered a few issues:

  1. The Explore Collections link which sends a search query is not returning Collections, but instead it returns a list of Works.
  2. When viewing a Collection landing page, the banner image is not loading.

NOTE: if you access a collection from the homepage > Featured Collections boxes, some of them may be hard-coded to the production URL, so make sure you stay in the test or arch environment.

Explore Collections link Go to the homepage, click on Explore Collections See the search results list generated (Works are shown, but this should only retrieve Collections) Compare to production behavior: Explore Collections search results list

Collection Landing Page Navigate to a Collection which has a banner image assigned, e.g. Health Sciences Artifacts See missing/broken banner image Compare to production instance: https://digital.library.emory.edu/catalog/5053ffbg7n-cor

Fix for the Explore Collections issue is upcoming.

@eporter23 Before I push that up, I see that some of the collection banners loading (https://curate-test.library.emory.edu//branding/706g1jwsv6-cor/banner/hero-yellowbacks.jpg), and the one you reference doesn't actually pull an image from the server (https://curate-test.library.emory.edu//branding/5053ffbg7n-cor/banner/HS-S023_B067_P004.jpg). Do you want me to check the server and see where the image is actually located at?

@bwatson78 I'll take a look, I had only been looking at Lux so I'll check in Curate first to see if banners are wonky there. That has been an issue in the past IIRC.

@bwatson78 I checked curate-test against digital-test, and I can confirm that only 1 collection (Yellowbacks) has a functional banner in curate and in lux. I think these got wiped out at some point while we were doing Hyrax upgrades, and we managed to prevent that from happening in prod. So, I think the issue is probably just the test environment. The Explore Collections link is working as expected now!
