Summon Bookmarklet>Title Search not working

[Jen Holman]

I've tested with several other summon bookmarklets, and the title search is failing for all.  The URL string that we are currently using is:

http://hope.summon.serialssolutions.com/search?%JOIN{&}{Y|s.q=%Y}{a|s.st.AuthorCombined=%a}{t|s.st.title=%t}{jt|s.st.publicationtitle=%jt}{v|s.st.volume=%v}{isu|s.st.issue=%isu}


Does anyone have a Summon title search that is working?

I tried changing the string to:

http://hope.summon.serialssolutions.com/search?%JOIN{&}{Y|s.q=%Y}{a|s.st.AuthorCombined=%a}{t|s.st.TitleCombined=%t}{jt|s.st.publicationtitle=%jt}{v|s.st.volume=%v}{isu|s.st.issue=%isu}

Because this is what a title search URL looks like in Summon (and this one works):

http://hope.summon.serialssolutions.com/search?s.st.TitleCombined=women#!/search?ho=t&l=en&q=(TitleCombined:(women))

But my change did not fix the problem, and the search query is still being dropped.

Thanks to anyone who checks!

%v and %isu are not supported, remove the entire clauses.

Otherwise, http://hope.summon.serialssolutions.com/search?s.st.title=China seems to work, which is what would be formed for a title search.

Hi Godmar -

Thanks! I removed the two clauses. Although http://hope.summon.serialssolutions.com/search?s.st.title=China seems to work (in that the link resolves to Summon), the search is returning every single record in Summon. It's like the search terms are dropped from the search.  From LibX, a title search for China returns 589,091,462 results - our entire database. On the flip side, a keyword search from LibX does work and only returns 22,259,223 results. A title search for "china" should return just 3,588,641 results.

Then use something else beside 's.st.title'?  Consult the Summon documentation for the correct syntax.

Hi Godmar -

Thanks for the friendly "push" - I didn't find anything in the Summon documentation, but after trial and error - this syntax is working:

http://hope.summon.serialssolutions.com/search?%JOIN{&}{Y|s.q=%Y}{t|s.q(&q=TitleCombined:(%t))}{jt|s.q(&q=publicationtitle:(%jt))}{a|s.q(&q=AuthorCombined:(%a))}
