Re: [EP-tech] Issue: Edited Books Not Displaying on Creator View Page When Editor Name Entered in Contributor Field

The items included in the view depend on the view definition.  
If you can look in your repository configuration in a path something like <EPRINTS_HOME>/archives/<ARCHIVE_ID>/cfg/cfg.d/ and you should have a file (possibly called views.pl ) which should contain a section 

$c->{browse_views} = {

And within that a section with  something like
{
        id => “creators”,
        allow_null => 0,
        …
},

what does that whole section within that say?  Particularly the definition of   menus => [ … ],

I would refer you to a relevant bit of the eprints wiki, but it look like that is struggling at the moment.

Dear Team,

I am writing to seek your guidance regarding an issue we are experiencing with our EPrints repository.

Issue Description:
We have observed that when we enter an editor's name in the Contributor field as a editor value for an edited book, the item does not appear on the Creator/author View page associated with that editor (https://pure.jgu.edu.in/view/creators/Alam=3AAbid_Fakhre=3A=3A.html).
However, if we enter the same editor's name in the Creator field, the item is successfully displayed on the Creator/author article index view page.

Expected Behavior:
We would like edited books to appear on the Creator View page when the editor's name is entered in either the Contributor field.

Environment Details:

Best regards,

Abid Fakhre Alam
