Re: [EP-tech] DOI Minting

Thanks everyone, It turns out I had more options than I thought!

I went with Rory in the end. I've been putting off getting to grips with triggers for ages and so this was a good opportunity.

The DataCite plugin works how I want and after a brief ban on my Twitter account, the twitter bot works as I want it to. For some reason, after changing the trigger on the Twitter script it sent LOADS of Tweets so I may need to take another look at it tomorrow.

The important one was DataCite and that's spot on.

As usual, thank you all for the advice.

James

Maybe write the event directly in the mysql table used for the queue to
