    • Product Version: All

    Question

    Why is a Main Menu Link opening to a New Search instead of the URL specified in the view configuration?

    Answer

    • This problem commonly occurs when the Main Menu Link is a Primo URL containing a colon(:) in the view code
    • The colon should be encoded as %3A
    • For example, if the URL contains "&vid=<institution code>:<view code>", it should be changed to "&vid=<institition code>%3A<view code>"
