Hi Alice, yes you are correct. The input forms are not manageable via the admin UI. Basically you got to:
a) register the metadata in the registry (if not allready present) b) edit input-forms.xml to create/change a form and map it to a collection c) edit the message catalogue to include new labels if needed d) run mvn package and ant init_configs and reload your webapp Hope that helps Claudia Jürgen Platt, Alice schrieb: > I am part of a team implementing a DSpace Manakin framework for our > institutional repository.
