When we set the access of biblio import to ordinary members and they import the biblios, it sets the new contents author to admin not the uploader user!

I fixed the problem, now regular users will see the same "drop down" select box that the admin user sees for selecting users, however it will be disabled so they will not be able to set a value other than their own userID.

In previous versions, a user with admin role could import bibliographies for another user. In this release, it seems only the admin user can do that. Is there something I can do to change it back to allow all administrators to do that? Our system uses CAS authentication, and the admin user is not a real person (so we have to take the site down to allow admin user to import these bibliographies.

Thanks!

I just changed the code so that anyone with "biblio admin" privileges can now set the UserID. Will that address your problem?

Yes, that would be great! Will that come out in rc3?

Thanks!

Yes, in the next release, or if you want it right now, it's in the -dev version.
