Thank you Adam and Martin.  That was what I was looking for, nice and simple.

Now if only I could find a way to do a Batch Edit for “Theses (Ph. D.)” in a field (so that I can replace it with “Ph. D.”.

My understanding is that the Batch Edit is only available from the “editor” search, which works like the Advanced search interface, offering “all of” or “any of” as options for searching within a field.  So when I search for “Theses (Ph. D.)”, I get this:

Degree matches "Theses (Ph. D.)" (Ignoring: "D", "Ph").

If it ignores the “Ph” and the “D”, then it is not specific enough and catches to many items.

And thus, it looks like to make this replace, I would have to use Perl scripting, right?    Is there any way to set the advanced search to do phrase searching and/or not ignore “D” and “Ph” in my criteria?

Hi Tomasz,

I wanted just to tell the same, in the cfg.d/user_roles.pl, add +eprint/archive/edit, but Adam was faster.

BTW, there's a useful extension to BatchEdit on https://github.com/eprintsug/batchedit-extended that allows find/replace on multiple compound fields.

Best regards,

Martin

Hi Tomasz
 
                The permission is eprint/archive/edit – see https://github.com/eprints/eprints/blob/3.3/perl_lib/EPrints/Plugin/Screen/BatchEdit.pm#L37
 
                In the roles field, add +eprint/archive/edit
 
                HOWEVER, I don’t know if this will unlock other bits of functionality.  It kindof looks like it might – be sure you trust the user’s intentions and capabilities.

Subject: [EP-tech] BatchEdit permission name
 
I want to add the permission to an Editor account for access to BatchEdit function.
Right now, only an admin account can access this screen, an editor gets this error: “You may not view this screen: BatchEdit.”
I couldn’t find the name of the relevant permission here: https://wiki.eprints.org/w/User_roles.pl#Assigning_a_user_privilege
How do I assign permission for an Editor to have access to BatchEdit?
