[EP-tech] Re: Changing "Deposited By" for items?

Do you want to change the value of the userid/Depositing User field? If so you can use Change Owner function on the Editorial Actions tab for each eprint or you can use the batch edit.

Cheers

Subject: [EP-tech] Changing "Deposited By" for items?

Hi,

We are using EPrints 3.2.8 (Apple Crumble) [Born on 2011-06-20].

It is not possible through the Eprints Admin interface to change the "Deposited By" field.  Can it be done safely with SQL?  I could try doing it for myself, but before I do I thought I'd try and find out whether anyone else had done the same.

Many thanks.

Alex
