<div>Hi Matt / Lessard</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"></span>I don't think virtual fields will work for searching (if I've understood the problem correctly). Virtual fields don't store values in the database, and in general, searching is operating on the
database.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"></span>When I have issues like this, I tend to use automatic fields to solve it. How about this:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"></span>1) Create a new multiple volatile field called all_contributors_unite_ids</div>
<div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"></span>2) in eprint_fields_automatic, add code that will pull all the unite_ids of all the creators, editors and contributors and store them in the new field</div>
<div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"></span>3) use the that field as the target of your search.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"></span>There's a training video on automatic fields here: <a href="https://wiki.eprints.org/w/Training_Video:Automatic_Fields">https://wiki.eprints.org/w/Training_Video:Automatic_Fields</a></div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"></span>Note that there's one issue with this: if your user records change, you will need to recommit the publications associated with that user record. You can do with user_fields_automatic -- on commit
do a search for eprints with this userid in any of the 'person' fields, and recommit them.</div>
