<br>
A couple of minor updates have been applied to the ORCID Support
Advance plugin, bringing it up to version 1.3.2.<br>
<br>
The updates are only very minor, fixing issues where the plugin
was generating a few too many messages in the indexer and error
logs. A Change Log documenting these most recent changes is
available at <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://wiki.eprints.org/w/ORCID_Support">https://wiki.eprints.org/w/ORCID_Support</a><br>
<br>
Regarding the discussion a couple of emails above in the EP-Tech
list ("Import by DOI in ORCID plugin"), a new DOI imported that
takes ORCIDs into account is not available at present. Due to the
requirements that the ORCID field must be readonly when connected
to the member API so that ORCIDs can only be added via an
authoritative source, the ORCID field that is added to the
creator/editor tables cannot be edited. Therefore to stop values
from being entered, which then later cannot be removed, the ORCID
field uses the creator/editor 'Email' column to lookup user
profiles in the repository that have connected to orcid.org so
that the creator/editor ORCID field can be verified. As such any
ORCID added via a DOI import, might then be erased if the user
profile lookup cannot be made. <br>
<br>
This is an issue we're looking into resolving however and so
hopefully we should have some updates on it in the future!<br>
<br>
Many thanks,<br>
<br>
Will<br>
