Search Bug

Search for "http://arxiv.org"
matches "https://arxiv.org"

(Quick search and advanced search - prefix URL matching)

    I'm not sure what you're saying there? Oh, "http" vs. "https". OK, we'll look.
  • I am trying to filter all arXiv records where URL protocol is HTTP.
    But the search returns both HTTP and HTTPS
  • Seems to work fine for me.

    What quick search mode are you using?

    What advanced search condition?
  • Quick mode - All fields
    Advanced search - prefix on URL
  • Make sure you're not confusing gray context rows and actual search matches.

    If you don't think you are, can you provide a screenshot that shows the item row and item pane for a match in All Fields & Tags, as well as a Debug ID for the search?
  • Ok, I figured. I have fixed the URL field to "https", but the attachment pdf still has "http", which is why I was still getting that record
  • Right, but to be clear, you weren't actually getting the parent item — you were getting the child item. The parent item is gray, which mean it's not actually a match.
  • Yes, I understand. I just missed gray text color
