<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Thanks Alen, I'll look into it deeper.<br>
<br>
It's sad, though, that default Import/Export plugins break. Could
you give a few hints on how to customise these plugins? (general
guidelines). Could the changes be applied on the parent Import and
Export plugin, or most child plugins tend to override functions
dealing with title, abstract, etc?<br>
<br>
And that being the case, isn't it equivalent to adding extra
fields for an additional language? Either way same things are
broken, right? :)<br>
<br>
Lastly, where are these metadata fields stored in the database?
Reading the article in the link you provided diagonally, it seems
that I need to update the database in order to create them, right?<br>
<br>
Thanks again!<br>

<br>
You have Metadata Field Types documented here:<br>
<a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://wiki.eprints.org/w/Category:EPrints_Metadata_Fields">http://wiki.eprints.org/w/Category:EPrints_Metadata_Fields</a><br>
<br>
But, be aware that changing title, keywords and abstract fields to
<br>
'compound' breaks default EPrints plugins - export/import .. these
<br>
plugins expect title/keywords/abstract to be simple and not
compound <br>
(hash) value.<br>
<br>
I'm using it that way but there is some extra effort to customize
and <br>
maintain import/export plugins.<br>
<br>
If anybody have a suggestion or a better solution please let me
know.<br>
<br>
Maybe this is a good opportunity to discuss that i18n issues in
EPrints.<br>
<br>
Kind regards,<br>
