[Bug 16503] New: Label creator: grouping fields with quotes does not work in layout creator
https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=16503 Bug ID: 16503 Summary: Label creator: grouping fields with quotes does not work in layout creator Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: 3.22 Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P5 - low Component: Label/patron card printing Assignee: cnighswonger@foundations.edu Reporter: barton@bywatersolutions.com QA Contact: testopia@bugs.koha-community.org The description for "Data field" under label-edit-layout.pl shows "Enter a comma separated list of fields to print. You may include any Koha field or MARC subfield. See online help for advanced options ex: barcode, itemcallnumber, title, "050a 050b", 300a Fields homebranch_description, holdingbranch_description, ccode_description, location_description and permanent_location_description show description instead of code." This seems to indicate that grouping fields using quotes, non-comma separated, *should* work: Given an item with the following data: title: Juggling for the complete klutz / author: Cassidy, John. itemcallnumber: JNF 793.8 Cas Using the data fields "title author", itemcallnumber Should yield a CSV export this: "Juggling for the complete klutz / Cassidy, John.","JNF 793.8 Cas" Instead I get this: ,"JNF 793.8 Cas" To replicate: 1/ Create a record using the title, author and itemcallnumber above. 2/ Go to tools > label creator 3/ Add a batch containing the created item 4/ Add a new layout. Click the list fields radio button, and add the fields title, author, itemcallnumber 5/ Export the batch as CSV using the new layout. The resulting file will look like this: "Juggling for the complete klutz /","Cassidy, John.","JNF 793.8 Cas" 6/ Edit the layout, change the field list to "title author", itemcallnumber 7/ Export the batch again, the new CSV file will read ,"JNF 793.8 Cas" The bug was replicated under version 3.23. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

The description for "Data field" under label-edit-layout.pl shows
"Enter a comma separated list of fields to print. You may include any Koha field or MARC subfield.

ex: barcode, itemcallnumber, title, "050a 050b", 300a
Fields homebranch_description, holdingbranch_description, ccode_description, location_description and permanent_location_description show description instead of code."
This seems to indicate that grouping fields using quotes, non-comma separated, *should* work:
This is a "vestigial example." The feature itself never quite made it in. A quick look over the code shows that there does not appear to be any code to handle this feature. It is described in the formal documentation as "concatenating and keeping on a single line." If one were to write code to handle this, it would probably best go here: http://tinyurl.com/j9o4au3 -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=16503 --- Comment #2 from George Williams (NEKLS) <george@nekls.org> --- I'm going to suggest that, if no one is going to write code to add the feature that the the description on the screen in label-edit-layout.pl refers to, maybe we could just remove the parts of the description that are causing the confusion. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
