Sorry, maybe I explained it wrongly. It is about the metadata showed in the 
items. For example, if you want to show title, author and date for one 
collection, and title, author, date and handle for other different collection. 
In dspace.cfg is this line webui.itemdisplay.default

I know this can be applied to collections by writing, for instance, 
webui.itemdisplay.<collection-wanted> = 12345/12, 12345/13; but I wanted to 
know if this could be applied to communities instead of collections.

I am in the process of installing DSpace 1.5.1.  Yesterday I configured our 
site to use the "fetch from cache" option for counting collection/community 
strengths and it updated both the Community and Collection counts and displayed 
them just fine on the home page, Community, and Collection pages.  So no, you 
shouldn't have to do anything special to have your Community strengths updated.

 

Here is what I did to get it to work.  

1.  Configured our dspace.cfg as follows:

 

##### Settings for content count/strength information ####

 

# whether to display collection and community strengths

# (This configuration is not used by XMLUI.  To show strengths in the 

#  XMLUI, you just need to create a theme which displays them)

webui.strengths.show = true

 

# if showing the strengths, should they be counted in real time or

# fetched from cache?

# 

# Counts fetched in real time will perform an actual count of the

# database contents every time a page with this feature is requested,

# which will not scale.  If the below setting is to use the cache, you

# must run the following command periodically to update the count:

#

# [dspace]/bin/dsrun org.dspace.browse.ItemCounter

#

# The default is to count in real time

#

webui.strengths.cache = true

 

 

Then I created a script to run "ItemCounter, as specified in the 1.5.1 
Documentation as follows:

 

#!/bin/sh

 

###########################################################################

#

# item-counter - cron job for Updating the Community and Collection counters

#

###########################################################################

# Get the DSPACE/bin directory

BINDIR=`dirname $0`

 

echo "Beginning cron item-counter @ " &date

echo "Updating Community and Collection Item counters"

 

$BINDIR/dsrun org.dspace.browse.ItemCounter

 

# Check to see if the program completed successfully

if [ "$?" -ne "0" ]; then

   echo "item-counter cron failed @" &date

   exit 1

fi

 

echo "Cron item-counter completed successfully @" &date

exit 0

 

We will set this up as a nightly cron to run, once we do our production 
implementation.

 

Hope this helps!

Sue

Hi Dspace developers and users,

I'd like to know if the issue "item display applied to collections" could be 
applied somehow to communities. In my case, inside one community I have a lot 
of collections so in dspace.cfg I should put all the handles of these 
collections

I have tried with the handle of the community but it doesn't work. Any 
suggestion?

Thanks in advance,
Felipe
