Thanks Lorna, Pat et all. Just to say- we've investigated and the search filter issue isn't actually a bug- it does work, it's just taking a looooong time sometimes, and it shouldn't be, the search and filtering should show results immediately. Ben and the team are investigating and it should all be smooth as butter (like it was last week) soon as. Will let you all know when that's fixed.

Hi there,
Just a quick note to say, great to see the new search interface! Well done guys :)
I haven't had a chance to explore it in detail but I did notice the same issue that Pat mentioned regarding clearing search filters.
Cheers
Lorna

Pat,
Reindexing is done on a scheduled basis (daily initially).
It essentially gets the data from the Apacahe SOLR cores for search and statistics and indexes them into Elastic Search.
UI Things - 2 issues created 1. Licence icon incorrect 2. Add rel attribute to anchor (with value "licence" or "license"?, I don't want to start a spelling war)
Observations noted:
1. Not obvious how to change the number of items per page
2. Not obvious how to refresh the search/trigger an update
(Is it ok to contact you directly for more clarification on this second observation)
Regards,
Ben

Hello,
Firstly - oooooh the API is fast - how often is the elastic search reindexed?
UI things - The licence picture is always CC-BY even when that isn't the licence? Also, the RDFa around the licence doesn't use the RDFa that the Open Attribute plugin uses (we mostly look for rel="licence" ?) - not sure if that could be changed?
Wasn't obvious how to change the number of items displayed per page, but worked it out ok.
I added a filter, but once added, wasn't obvious how to refresh the search / trigger an update
Seems a lot quicker and friendlier though
Pat

Jorum Beta available now, with improved search, preview, usage data/stats and API
Dear colleagues,
We've just released the new Jorum Beta, offering improved search, preview, reporting and API, to the community. You will also see the gorgeous new graphic design provided by Mimas designer Ben Perry!
We have a blog post here which we'd be grateful if you could read and/or push out through any relevant channels:http://www.jorum.ac.uk/blog/post/56/jorum-just-got-a-whole-lot-beta
And the Beta itself is here: http://beta.jorum.ac.uk/ - but please send folk to the blog post first- the Beta is linked in the first few lines.
All feedback welcome via any of the usual channels. If you're Tweeting, please use the #jorumbeta hashtag (and as a tag for blog posts etc.). NB We are currently running formal UI/UX testing (with the help of Ian Piper at Tellura), so we are aware there are tweaks and improvements to be made.
A huge thank you and congratulations to the whole Jorum team, Jorum Steering Group, and our lovely user community for getting us this far!
Best to all,
Sarah
