Release Notes for 10/01/2020

Pika Release Notes 2020.06.2 

September Patch Release 

New Functionality

  • Immediate regrouping for forced groupings caused by grouped work merging, record ungrouping or marking a record for regrouping
    • Though the regrouping takes place immediately, there will be a delay as a round of indexing is needed to process the new grouping and for it to display correctly in search results and record views.

Bug Fixes

  • Optimized the fetching and processing of OverDrive availability changes so that Marmot’s catalog is able to keep up with the availability changes of the Marmot OverDrive collections.
    • Additional logging was added to the Pika OverDrive extract process so that the issue can be better diagnosed in the future.
  • Ungrouped records entries were not saving the source properly for non-ILS records
  • Shortened time-out period waiting for responses from Content Cafe for descriptions and reviews
    • (patched earlier for libraries using Content Cafe for catalog enrichment)
  • Fixed “is part of search scope” calculations so that sideloaded eContent would appear in a library’s search results
    • (patched earlier for all libraries)
  • Corrected an error that could cause Islandora video player to fail.

Sideloads

  • Creative Bug for Bud Werner (in progress)
