[EP-tech] Re: workflow phrases...

Hi Matthew

This isn't supported out of the box in 3.2 but we made a modification to our install that makes it possible. The patch causes the Repository object to cache the type of the current eprint, then MetaField methods check that value and try to render a custom phrase, e.g., 
<epp:phrase id="eprint_fieldname_title">Title</epp:phrase>
<epp:phrase id="eprint_fieldname_title#book">Book Title</epp:phrase>
<epp:phrase id="eprint_fieldname_title#article">Article Title</epp:phrase>
...

I've attached a patch, I'm not sure how well it will apply, as it was mixed up with other changes and I had to edit the patch by hand.  If it doesn't apply automatically the modified methods are Repository->read_params(), MetaField->render_name() and MetaField->render_help().

Cheers
Mark

Subject: [EP-tech] workflow phrases...

Can the displayed title for fields be customized, on a type by type basis in the workflow?
I am reading through the documentation for workflows (http://wiki.eprints.org/w/Workflow_Format), and it appears to be possible, but its alluding me...

eg, currently vanilla systems have the field 'title' in the workflow for pretty much every type, and it displays the label 'Title'.
For type = book_section, I'm wanting to keep the field as title, while changing the displayed label to 'Title of Chapter' to make it more user friendly...

Thanks for any guidance.
Matt
