A local display field becomes its own search index.


You can add it as a field for use in advanced search, if you you to the advanced search tab when editing a view.


It should also be possible to instead add a local field like the 690 to an existing  display field and search index (like Subject).


We can go over this on the Tuesday call next week.

Is displaying local fields the same thing as being able to do a search by subject in advanced search? I am trying this with our 690's as "Subject" and keep getting no results. They display in the record, and if do a simple search on that subject, the records show up. However, an advanced search where I've selected "Subjects" as a field to search and then the heading, and nothing shows up. What's missing here? Is it something I have to set up in Resources Configuration or something else in the Primo VE display where I have to map the specific MARC field to the subject search? If so, I can't find it.


Thanks!

Amy,



I created a local display field in your Primo VE, so that the 690a would show up as a subject in Primo VE.



Assuming “snowmaggedon” is over next week, early next week, we can go over setting these up in the Tuesday call :)

Same here. An example at OC is “A wretched and precarious situation.”  The 690 is “Thomas Graham Library Collection Endowment”

Subject: [External] [Wactclc-primo] Primo VE display of local subject headings



So, we've discovered that Primo VE is apparently not displaying our 690 local subject headings. This used to work in Primo. It's just not showing up in VE.



I've gone into the Discovery Configuration Display Fields and mucked around with trying to add a Local Field. I added a local field 690, and I also went in and messed with the Normalization Rule for display of Subject headings to add a stanza about the 690's. However, my regex abilities are rudimentary at best, and I was winging it, just copying and pasting stuff from above and replacing other field numbers with 690.  It let me save it, so I figured it was correct. However, they are still not showing up, so I think I didn't do something right - or maybe I completely missed where I'm supposed to set up display of local fields.



Has anyone else configured this yet to display your local fields? If so, can you please help with figuring out how to do this?



Thanks in advance!
