Hi Joanna, I just checked the code, and I don't see a way to set a "forever" date limit at this time in DSpace 7. However, you can set the value in *YEARS*. So, you could set "startDateLimit" to something like "+999YEARS" if that's helpful.
It's also possible to *test out* various values to see what they would return based on the current date. This must be done via the commandline, but the command is this: ./dspace dsrun org.dspace.util.DateMathParser +999YEARS It'll return something like this: Applied +999YEARS to implicit current time: Wed Jun 25 19:42:48 UTC 3023 (I'll add that hint to the documentation as well) Tim On Wednesday, June 12, 2024 at 5:03:10 PM UTC-5 joann...@gmail.com wrote: > Hello all. > > Can anyone provide guidance about how to change the startDateLimit value > to forever to allow a permanent embargo?
