Re: External collection items not counted in the parent collection in websearch

[Nikos Kasioumis]

Dear Theodoros, Although I remember there was a discussion about 4 years ago on whether to count the number of records in hosted collections into the number of the records in their parent collection and why, I could not find the exact reasons. I'll work in < http://invenio-software.org/ticket/1651> . Cheers, Nikos On 11/27/2013 12:58 PM, Nikos Kasioumis wrote: Dear Theodoros, If I remember well, this was a requirement at the time. Let me dig deeper into this, see if I find the reason and I'll get back to you.

I'm not interested in nested external collections (I think that this is impossible anyway), I just want to have a proper sum of records even if the (first) child collection is external. See the attached image for an example. The 'external' server is also an invenio instance and everything else works properly. Is it possible to make this work? Should I create a ticket?
