Dear Team,

I would like to report an issue with the Creator View page in EPrints.

We have identified a case where two different authors have the same forename and surname, but they belong to different departments and are different individuals. However, EPrints is indexing publications from both authors under a single creator page.

For example:
https://pure.jgu.edu.in/view/creators/Subramanian=3AVidya=3A=3A.html

the last two article one is book review and one the last article are belong to the different individual

As a result, publications belonging to two separate authors are being displayed on the same profile page, which leads to incorrect author attribution and confusion.

Could you please advise whether there is a configuration or solution to distinguish authors with identical names, such as using departmental affiliation, author ID, ORCID, or another unique identifier to generate separate creator pages?

We would appreciate your guidance on how to resolve this issue.

Thank you for your assistance.

Best Regards,
Abid Fakhre Alam
