Scope: How large - Just the controlled access terms - One change to the hook and new config form. PR's most likely to various components.

OAI-PMH Sets: Member view based. Controlled by contextual filter. Josh - Collection Sets. Member of as a contextual filter. Suggestion to add a field to indicate if is a set? (True/False). Adding a field is how it's been done in the past and is simple to do.

Minutes

Questions from Slack:

  1. Has anyone developed wildcard search support for Mirador? Solr searches with wildcards show results for paged content, but Mirador itself can’t process those searches natively. A: This is an outstanding issue due to Solr mode search descrepencies. Not sure where the issue stems from - related to not using the same solr search operator(s) in different views.

  2. Some weird behaviour with Advanced Search: if “Search All Fields” is turned on, we’re finding that items without the keywords anywhere in their metadata are showing up in the results. For example, the search term “peach” - in a standards search, returns over 29,000 results: https://bcrdh.ca/solr-search/content/grid?search_api_fulltext=peach&not_type=&is_type=&member_of_op=%3D&member_of%5Bvalue%5D=&search_api_fulltext_1=&field_ancestors=&sort_by=title&sort_order=ASC&display=grid&items_per_page=30 But in the advanced search, the same keyword in “all fields” returns over 143,000 results: https://bcrdh.ca/solr-search/content/grid?a%5B0%5D%5Bf%5D=all&a%5B0%5D%5Bv%5D=peach A: Solr Configuration Issue is suggested.

  3. Cary notes that there are 16 security notices released today - Drupal web form is included. (https://www.drupal.org/sa-contrib-2026-175)
