Hi All,
Could somebody please tell me how to overwrite an existing Perl module in
EPrints?
I recently made some changes to Details.pm. I know better than to modify it
in-situ, so I took a copy and moved it to my specific EPrint archive.
Original:
eprints3/perl_lib/EPrints/Plugin/Screen/EPrint/Details.pm
New edited version:
eprints3/archives/uolrepo/cfg/plugins/EPrints/Plugin/Screen/EPrint/Details.pm
EPrints didn't pick up my changes (even after a server restart) unless I
named the edited module something different so I called it:
Detailz.pm (package EPrints::Plugin::Screen::EPrint::Detailz;)
I've made the changes to how the page renders, but my problem now is I have
a "Details" and "Details2" tab on the staff view of an EPrint. I want only
my new Details.pm module to be brought in. I did follow Adam Field's
YouTube video that touched on this, but it wasn't quite the same problem
and didn't work.
Thanks,
James
