[EP-tech] staff search

[drn at ecs.soton.ac.uk (David R Newman)]

Hi Yuri,

I think you have found a bug.? The issue is that the search checks that 
the metadata_visibility for any items that might otherwise be found is 
set to 'show'.? An item that is an old version of another item will have 
its metadata_visibility set to 'hide'.? For staff search 
metadata_visibility should probably be ignored.? I have created a GitHub 
issue for this:

https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Feprints%2Feprints3.4%2Fissues%2F299&data=05%7C01%7Ceprints-tech%40ecs.soton.ac.uk%7C9e9c546b340d4dc6409608db14b6fd6d%7C4a5378f929f44d3ebe89669d03ada9d8%7C0%7C0%7C638126548378918147%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=a7gL2H%2Biizx33Au3GCbsbZdEW%2BIjgGy9UqcQv%2B9NNsk%3D&reserved=0

What are other people's opinions?? In an ideal world, I guess the staff 
search should have a checkbox to say whether to show hidden items?
