[EP-tech] Re: Editorial rights restrictions

Hi Andras,

Dear All,

	I have some questions about editorial rights restrictions:

- After I set a restriction on division or subject, how can I clear it? I
cannot unselect all options after I selected one...

Hit the [Ctrl] key and un-select.


- A trickier one: I need to set restrictions based on creators field. I added
creators to the user_review_scope.pl config file. When I try to access an item
and it checks the editorial restriction, I get this error:
The field would be "creators_name" I think - "creators" is a virtual field to gather creators_name and creators_id (usually the email address) together.
I don't think restricting the scope to a "name" is going to work very well - "names" are not unique ID fields unlike divisions/subjects etc. If anything restrict against the _id bit.

Unsupported attempt to search compound field on kdk.eprint.creators
------------------------------------------------------------------
   at /usr/share/eprints/perl_lib/EPrints/MetaField/Compound.pm line 570

Do you know a workaround? How can I match the creators' full name or family
name subfield against a string? Practically, I need to check if any of the
creators has the same name as the current user.

thanks,
