Sherry Lake (Aug 20 2024 at 16:43): Sherry Lake (Aug 20 2024 at 16:43):I’ve tried to do advance search on Harvard UI for Dataset authoraffiliation. The search string is not correct and search results of course are not right. Shows the following, even when putting the string in quotes “University of Virginia”
(authorAffiliation:University authorAffiliation:of authorAffiliation:Virginia)
Philip Durbin 🚀 (Aug 20 2024 at 17:52):Huh. You're definitely right, @Sherry Lake
Do you mind creating an issue?
Philip Durbin 🚀 (Aug 20 2024 at 17:55):It happens as far back as 4.20. I just tried on https://data.fz-juelich.de
Sherry Lake (Aug 20 2024 at 18:37):Well, I just tried it again, with quotes around and it is working on Harvard now - on my Mac. So after further investigating...
I was trying on my iPad before and just tried on my iPhone - those have "curly" smart quotes. The string in my initial question (above) has curly quotes. IF you use straight quotes, it works fine.
Do we need an issue for converting UTF-8 before searching or using in a string?
Philip Durbin 🚀 (Aug 20 2024 at 20:28):Good. So with non-curly quotes, you're getting authorAffiliation:"University of Virginia" like we want. Phew! :sweat_smile:
Philip Durbin 🚀 (Aug 20 2024 at 20:30):Hmm, I'd say we could probably wait until the new React SPA front end has a search feature to create an issue (fix it there, I mean), but if you want to go ahead and create one, please go ahead.
