Re: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] How to display location information under Top Container field?

Hi Kyle, That functionality was added in v2.8.1: https://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/releases/tag/v2.8.1. See the call out for PR #1891: https://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/pull/1891 Best, Lora *Lora Woodford (she/her)* *Software Engineer II * On Tue, Feb 22, 2022

Re: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] Date concatenation

, that would likely be a fairly major undertaking (that might not ultimately be successful) as the change to the display string was made at the model level. I wonder whether anyone else has considered doing that? Best, Lora Woodford From: archivesspace_users_group-boun...@lyralists.lyrasis.org

Hi Ashley, Wanted to follow up and see if you are still curious about this. Yes, what you’re describing seems normal. The database migration related to the new language/script of description fields in resource records was written to be very conservative in terms of deleting existing data

Re: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] Dates display problem.

Just as an additional heads-up, the upgrade to 2.8.0 does *require* a full reindex for everything to work properly as noted in the “Configurations and Migrations” section of the v2.8.0 Release Notes. Lora From: on behalf of

Re: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] Changes to PDF export in 2.8?

Hi Chris, I took a quick look at this, and I do think Mark’s instinct is correct. It seems an existing (custom to you folks) function in your xsl isn’t working with the recent updates/transition to saxon-rb. My XSL is pretty rusty these days, but the following lines (ln 364-371) in your

Hiya Mark! So, if the issue were a db schema mismatch, you’d likely get an error message explaining that. Something like “Schema Info Mismatch. Expected #{expected schema version}, received #{your schema version} for ASPACE version #{version you’re trying to run}.” What version of mysql (if

Hi Andy, When you're sending a search query along as your request using the search endpoints you're actually hitting the SOLR index and need to pass along the SOLR document fields. This can be somewhat confusing, because what is returned to you is the JSON representation of the object(s) you

Heya Kevin, Thanks for bringing this up. I took a quick look at the code, and I see what’s going on here. I’m going to put in a pull request later today to hopefully patch this in the upcoming release. That “found in” column was one of the first feature enhancements I tackled, so I’m afraid

Re: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] Importing Accessions CSVs - linking agents and resources

Hi Carly, The current accessions CSV import is limited to the columns that exist in the csv template, and, as such, does not support the type of workflow you describe. Rightly or wrongly, it definitely assumes that you are using the CSV importer to import wholly new records and new
