From 8198c0cea76b7eae98bca48b6eba36039a425ab6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Galen Charlton Date: Thu, 31 Aug 2017 22:37:01 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] LP#1638299: add release notes Also, here is a basic testing plan: - Upon applying the patch, verify that browse in the public catalog uses See, broader or narrower term, and see also as labels. - Verify that scope notes now only display under the main heading in the browse list. - Verify that turning off the Display related headings (see-also) in browse global flag disables display of see-also (related headings) in the public headings browse. Note that it may be necessary to clear memcached caching of cgf. - Verify that see references are consistently shown. - Verify that Server Administration | Authority Headings Fields works - Verify that Server Administration | Thesauri now includes fields for short code and URI.

Since the MODS and MADS stylesheets + extract headings in similar ways, duplicate browse entries are now + much less likely to occur. + * A new configuration table, `authority.heading_field`, is now used + to specify how headings should be extracted from authority records. + * Related headings can now be identified as narrower or broader when + browsing in the public catalog. + * See references are now more reliably included in the browse list. + * Scope (public) notes now display only under the main heading. + * There is now a global flag, Display related headings (see-also) in browse, + that can be used to control whether related headings (see-alsos) are + displayed in the public catalog list. + * A complete set of thesauruses are now included in the seed data. Thesauruses + can now be identified using short and long codes. + * The labels for see and see-also references in the public catalog are now + a bit more patron-friendly, and can now be tweaked via TPAC template + customization. + -- 2.11.0
