Cannot edit an authority record twice without reloading authorities,

[Steve Callender]

This was tested in 2.4.0.

When you go to Manage Authorities, do a search, and edit an authority, everything appears to work fine. When you do a second search from still within the same manage authorities screen, it will no longer allow you to edit any more authorities. You have to completely reload "manage authorities" to continue editing.

You should be able to search and edit for as many authorities as you need from within this screen and not have to reload after every edit.

Tested on 2.4.1 as well.

Can confirm behavior on 2.4.1 here as well.

Here are the steps to recreate this bug. I am looking into fixing this issue, but I probably need help from more experienced developers.

1) in "Manage Authorities" perform a search,

2) open the authority record by using "actions" drop-down menu, select "edit"

3) edit, save and close auth record

4) then perform another authority search

5) go to the "actions" drop-down menu to "edit" any authority in the new search result

6) the drop-down activates, "edit" can be selected, but the authority record pop-up record never materializes.

7) If you then try to activate the drop-down menu again, the button does not respond at all. Essentially the Manage Authorities page is deemed inoperable.

8) The only way to proceed is to hit the reload button and begin an authorities search all over again.

How timely, Yamil. I was just trying to edit authorities this morning and saw the same behavior. I was running version 2.6.3.

This bug should be fixed by the code posted in bug #1379824.

I tested the commit that Dan created for his related bug ( https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1379824 ) in EG 2.7.0 and 2.6.2 using the concerto dataset.

Thanks for looking into it Dan (and Remington).

Though, others might have another approach to fix this issue.
