Hello Tim, Thank you for the reply. Every item submitted would be “unpublished”, so I would like to avoid enabling the initial questions. I am afraid it will confuse the end-users that submit their theses. Could I automatically set every item submitted as “unpublished”, so that I could avoid end-user intervention per submission? What do you think is the best way to work around that? Maybe add a custom non-interactive step in the submission process to set publishedBefore=false or perhaps this can be stated by setting an appropriate metadata field value in each collection’s template? Or, should I edit the code that was modified in Pull Request 373<https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/pull/373/files>? Is there something else I can’t think of?
Greetings, Kiriaki From: dspace-tech@googlegroups.com <dspace-tech@googlegroups.com> On Behalf Of Tim Donohue Sent: Thursday, May 17, 2018 5:54 PM To: Kiriaki Roditi <kiriaki.rod...@elidoc.gr> Cc: dspace-tech@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: [dspace-tech] Re-enable dc.date.issued auto-assignment Hello Kiriaki, The "dc.date.issued" field is now only auto-assigned if you enable the "Initial Questions" page and select that the item is "unpublished" (i.e. not previously published before). This new behavior is described here: https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC6x/Metadata+Recommendations#MetadataRecommendations-RecommendedMetadataFields The behavior was changed in DSpace 4.0 because of complaints about incorrect/inaccurate dates in Google Scholar and Google search results. Both of those search engines based their results off our "dc.date.issued" field, and when that field was auto-assigned, it sometimes resulted in very odd search results in Google. See these two old tickets for more details: * https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/DS-1481 * https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/DS-1745 I hope that helps, Tim On Thu, May 17, 2018 at 3:57 AM Kiriaki Roditi <kiriaki.rod...@elidoc.gr<mailto:kiriaki.rod...@elidoc.gr>> wrote: Hello, We have just upgraded our 3.1 DSpace installation to 6.2 and found out that dc.date.issued in not assigned automatically anymore. Our repository contains only Theses which are submitted by their authors, so we would like dc.date.issued to be set to the day the item is archived into the repository, as always. What would be the best way to do that? Thank you in advance, Kiriaki -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "DSpace Technical Support" group.
