Hello DSpace community, We would like to clarify the behaviour of the item counts on Community and Collection pages, particularly for restricted/embargoed items. More specifically, it has been brought to our attention that the item counts that appear in the Communities & Collections page will show the total items, including those that are fully restricted/embargoed (e.g., items that should be visible to admin only). When clicking through to the Collection results, the expected number of results appears, but the number is higher on the Communities & Collections page. The Collections page search results are correct (good as this means the restricted items are not appearing to an unintended audience) but the number on the Collections landing page is somewhat misleading.
Example: when not logged in, Communities & Collections page shows 3 items (including 1 that is fully restricted) but the Collections page shows 2 item results. [image: Screenshot 2026-09-16 at 2.47.17 PM.png] We are curious if this discrepancy is a bug or simply how the Community/Collection count badge works in DSpace - that is, it shows a count of all published (archived) items in the badge, regardless of present authorizations? Note: We also ran the index-discovery command manually for this Collection but did not notice a change in the numbers after doing so. Thanks (and apologies if we missed this reported on either the DSpace or DSpace-angular GitHubs!)
