[Dspace-tech] JSPUI customizing author browse text
I am trying to customizing the text on the JSPUI author browse page (/browse?type=author ) to mention that users should search for the first few characters of an author's last name. It seems that browse.nav.enter modifies this text, but unfortunately it modifies the text of all of the browse pages as well. I noticed that there is a property in Messages.Properties, jsp.browse.authors.enter which looks promising, but I don't see this property referenced in any other files in DSpace. Is there a way to customize the text on each browse page separately in JSPUI? Are there a bunch of unneeded properties still hanging around in Messages.properties?

Re: [Dspace-tech] Batch metadata corrections question: does anyone know why the limit is set to just 20 items at a time?

Hi, On 28/07/11 10:19, Peter Dietz wrote: Doing batch changes with a large number of changes will keep your system busy, and the reindexing can take a while. I've noticed that when we set the limit to be really high, it appears that nothing will happen from the user's browser for 20+ minutes, so I've connected to the server from the command line, and noticed that the reindexing task was taking a long time, but still running. So you might be safe with setting this to a really high number (several thousand), you'll just have to have the patience to not disrupt it. But smaller / more manageable batch sizes will complete in a reasonable amount of time. With this set to 1000 or more, I'm guessing your more likely to run into Out-Of-Memory errors With one of 'my' repositories, when we increased the limit (to 1000 I think), completing the changes took so long that the Apache-Tomcat connection timed out. This meant that the user saw an error in their browser even though the changes actually went through fine. In our case we decided to stick with a lower limit to avoid confusion. Though 20 really does feel very low. There are some reports of this working with as many as 1000 items. http://dspace.2283337.n4.nabble.com/Excel-to-Dspace-td3310564.html Though it seems to be dependent on the amount of RAM available on your server. Relatedly, does anyone know how safe it is to test higher limit values? I looked at the code to determine whether these batch edits occur within a single database transaction, but I didn't see any evidence either way. Thanks, Alex Lemann -- Got Input? Slashdot Needs You.

[Dspace-tech] Allowing users to edit their own submissions
Is there a way to allow users to edit their own submissions without giving them access to edit everything in a collection? Is there a philosophical or technical reason to not allow this? I guess this would be sort of like setting DEFAULT_ITEM_WRITE to the user who is submitting.

Re: [Dspace-tech] restricting users to a specific collection
You can do bulk updates to item and bitstream policies by going to Administer - Authorization - Advanced / Item Wildcard Policy Admin Tool. You can get more help on the online help on that page. You might want to backup your database before bulk updating things.

I want to restrict access of anonymous users to a specific collection. I mean that anonymous users cannot download the bitstreams. For this purpose, i changed the default-bitstreams-read policy of that collection from anonymous users to registered users. But the result is amazing, its bitstreams are still accessible by anonymous users. when i applied the same policy at item level, it worked well. any suggestions about this?
