Tim, please clarify! What about DSpace 7? I am making a fresh install of DSpace 7.1. The Apache Solr Security page says Solr 8.11.0 (the current release) is vulnerable to attack. Your reassurance seems to be specific to DSpace 6.3. Are we safe to make new installations with DSpace 7.1 (using

Sorry if this has been already answered. Is there a simple way to place a clickable link (like "Return Home") in the introductory paragraph, used as the DSpace home page, running with a default xmlui theme? I am trying to edit and presume the proper place would be /[dspace

2020-10-15 Thread Chris Clawson
Hmmm.. It sounds like an upgrade is a one time deal, with no going back. That makes me glad I have a test server. The 'side by side' install sounds interesting, but this conversation doesn't provide any detail or links explaining how to do that. If that were practical, I was thinking DSpace 7
