Unable to search by “Edition statement” in the advanced search for titles. #198

Closed mnl101 closed 3 years ago

mnl101 commented 3 years ago

Describe the bug: There is no “Edition statement” field in the advanced search for titles.

To reproduce: Go to Explore; select “search titles” from the drop-down menu Click “advanced search” We have “Edition number” but no “Edition statement” as an option for advanced searching

Expected results: An “Edition statement” field that we can search when using the advanced search for title records.

Additional context: This edition statement is a new field added in a recent update and we need to be able to search for it.

Hi Michael, reopening this one too.

What if users want to search both? What if I want to look for the fifth edition or "5" for the edition number, and "new edition" in the edition statement? It may not be clear to users that these are separate categories....When we tried to use 'and' it brought up every edition statement that had 'and' in it! If Michael has instructions for how to make that work, ie. to search both fields, we should maybe include it on the advanced search page below the field?
