Re: [Koha] No link to Authors on Refine your search
Could it be that the comma in the author name is considered to be a list separator at 'refine search' time?

Maybe I didn’t explain well. The problem is: When I make a normal search (Ex: prisoner of azkaban), than, on the left side, it will be automatically added filters on the "*Refine your search*" section. (Ex: Authors: Rowling, J. K.) The filters are: Availability, Libraries, Authors, Topics, Series. All the links work well except the Authors. When I click in *Authors* it will perform this search: search.pl?idx=kw&q=prisoner of azkaban&limit=au:Rowling, J. K. (DON’T FIND NOTHING) If I change it to: search.pl?idx=kw&q=prisoner of azkaban&limit=au:J. K. Rowling (SEARCH IS OK) I use Unimarc. The Authors are in: 200$f, 200$g, 700$a$b, 701$a$b, 702$a$b, 710, 711, 712 Thanks again for your help, JS ----- Koha version: 3.08.04 - - José Anjos -- View this message in context: http://koha.1045719.n5.nabble.com/No-link-to-Authors-on-Refine-your-search-t...

Hi Petridis. Now I've deleted the comma from Authority Author, rebuild zebra but no success. It's strange because the results looks OK (Ex: Rowling, J. K.(*3*) ) Than, when I click it, nothing if found :( ----- Koha version: 3.08.04 - - José Anjos -- View this message in context: http://koha.1045719.n5.nabble.com/No-link-to-Authors-on-Refine-your-search-t...

Unless something has changed recently there are certain characters that have special meaning for searching and these include colon(:), equal(=) and brackets(()). So the cataloguer's solution would be to ensure you do not have these characters in author statements. This may not be most helpful but probably explains the problem. Good luck.
