Re: [EP-tech] Filtering a view

Whenever I need to do something fancy with browse views, I create automatic fields and browse based on that.  There's a training video:


Essentially, you create a new field, and copy the values you're interested in into that field, then browse on that field instead of the original one.

Hi Jean-Marie,

I haven't tested this, but it might work…

In the view config, define a menu with the sub-field ('institution'), and 'allow_null' set to 0. Something like:

 

menus => [

  {

    fields => [ "creators_institution" ],

    allow_null => 0,

    …

  },

  {

    …

  },

}

 

Cheers,

John

 

PS (in case you don’t know) you can re-generate just one view using the '--view' option with bin/generate_views

Subject: [EP-tech] Filtering a view

 

Hello all,

I want to create an author index that only refers to authors whose institution field is filled :

<Mail Attachment.png>


How can we do that? I have seen the solution of Alan Stiles (http://www.eprints.org/tech.php/14651.html) but I can not manage to make it work. Maybe a problem with Eprints version? I work with eprints in version 3.3.12.

Thank you for your help.

Jean-Marie
