I noticed that behavior with Iowa as well. I'm curious how they made that work. If I add a "scope" argument to our test and dev server URLs (or to the demo site), DSpace is not treating that as a search; the display remains as if I was browsing and no facets appear.
I think for us though, the biggest loss would be the inability to have facets customized per collection. We have a custom set for our ETD collection that makes use of the additional metadata fields available in ETD-ms (department, program, degree level etc). I assume that since facets now only display on search results, they must all fall within the default set. - Darryl On Thursday, April 28, 2022 at 10:42:16 AM UTC-6 al...@vt.edu wrote: > We also want the facets to appear in collection pages.
