[EP-tech] Eprints 3.4.3: adding new options for editing items
Hi Chris and John,
I think John has got to the crux of the matter.? This is something you
need command line access to do. Although, it is in theory possible from
the web interface via "View Configuration" on the Admin page.? However,
doing something like this is strongly advised against, as you could
break your repository in a way you then cannot fix unless you have
command line access.
Its been a rather busy morning, after a rather late night working. I
misread this as a new (i.e. changed) phrase for a thesis_name /
thesis_type option is not be displayed rather than you wanted to add a
new option .I think because you were talking about the "Edit Phrases"
and them no appearing rather than adding options, which is something
separate.? Although, you will subsequently need a phrase defined to
nicely display this new option, added in the way John described.
Regards
David Newman
