Advanced Search in Primo PI
There is no Advanced Search possibility in the Primo PI when using a smartphone in portrait mode. The Advanced Search feature is however accessible when using the smartphone in landscape mode or a tablet, i.e. when screens are a bit larger.
Please note that Advanced Search is accessible by default when using Primo UI in responsive mode on a smartphone. Compared to the responsive mode on a browser, the Primo PI in campusM is a regression.

I see in the CampusM roadmap that there is an H2 2024 development for Primo VE - Compatibility with New PrimoVE UI . I wonder if this would address this idea.

When we reported to the Library Mobile project implementation team that there was no Advanced Search option (with Primo PI) in portrait mode, we were replied the following:
"This is the expected behaviour. It is Primo VE's styling kicking in for the device display size/width. If you resize the web app, you will also see that the advanced search link does not display."
We still do think that Primo PI should NOT provide less options and possibilities that using Primo in a browser in responsive mode.
