Release notes
NOTE: If you are upgrading from one of the beta releases or RC1, you should follow the instructions here
RC4 corrects a major bug in which caused the order of authors to be lost on import. This only affected file imports using RC3, so if you imported data with RC3, you may have to delete it and reimport it.
First I would like to thank Robert Haschke for all the work he did to make this release possible. He was instrumental in getting the D5 -> D6 upgrade process working properly and did a tremendous amount of work on the new "contributor" widget and contributor handling in general. If your not a programmer, you won't appreciate how much effort he put into code cleanup and rationalization, but I can tell you that I appreciate it and it has been very stimulating to have another programmer to bounce ideas off.
Frank Steiner also deserves honorable mention for the number of patches he contributed mainly dealing with (but not limited to) bibtex import/export.
New features...
- Authors page which displays all authors in the database linked to publication
lists filtered by that author. (edit links are present for privileged users) - Keywords page which displays all keywords in the database linked to publication list filtered by that keyword. (edit links are present for privileged users)
- Author edit/merge form (merge allows you to merge all instances of the same author which have been entered slightly differently. i.e. Smith, J and John Smith are the same person so you merge the two entries into one.)
- Orphaned author edit page (allows you to remove authors who are not associated with any publications from the database)
- added 'tabledrag' to admin/settings/biblio/defaults and admin/settings/biblio/types/edit/xxx which allows you to change the order of the fields on the input form by just dragging them to the desired location
- input your own PHP code to generate cite keys
