Re: [EP-tech] Link from Abstract/Summary creator to /views/creators/{creator encoded}.html

Alan, Matt,

Thank you so much.  That helps us a lot.

Cheers to you both.
-Brian.

Thanks Matt,
That looks like a better option for avoiding the issues with feeds / exporters.  Another item on my list of things to sort, later!
Cheers,
Alan

Ah, that's how ours is different.  We *didn't* put a special renderer in the sub-field, instead we explicitly invoke renderers in the various citations.  For example, in citations/eprint/default.xml we do something like this:

~~~xml
<choose>
  <when test="is_set(creators)">
    <print expr="$item.render_value_special( 'QUT::EPrints::Utils::render_names_with_person_link', 'creators' )" />
  </when>
  <when test="type.one_of('book') and is_set(editors)">
    <print expr="$item.render_value_special( 'QUT::EPrints::Utils::render_names_with_person_link', 'editors' )" /> (Ed<if test="length(editors_name) gt 1">s</if>.)
  </when>
</choose>
~~~

... where the custom render_names_with_person_link subroutine does the <A> and URL generation.  Then we also have a second citation, .../abbrev.xml, which just does the usual:

~~~xml
<choose>
  <when test="is_set(creators_name)">
    <print expr="creators_name" />
  </when>
  <when test="type.one_of('book') and is_set(editors_name)">
    <print expr="editors_name" /> (Ed<if test="length(editors_name) gt
1">s</if>.)
  </when>
</choose>
~~~

...so we can choose between linked or non-linked citations.

~~~xml
<epc:print expr="$item.citation('abbrev')" /> ~~~

It's worth noting that, deep down, our render_names_with_person_link subroutine uses `EPrints::Utils::escape_filename` to convert the id field to a usable URL.

Cheers
