Hello,

By default, DSpace 7.1 will use Title as the page name.
After I create a Person "item" in the Person collection, it displayed as a "Untitled" item.
Home/Test/Person/Untitled/Edit Item

Could I ask how to change "Untitled" to person's Name?


Thank you,
Tianyi

Hi Tianyi,

In DSpace 7, the "Person" entity is expected to have two fields which control the name:
  • person.familyName
  • person.givenName
These two fields are captured in the Submission/Deposit process of a Person Entity as long as you are using the pre-configured Person Entity submission forms... named "Person", see this guide for more details: https://wiki.lyrasis.org/display/DSDOC7x/Configurable+Entities#ConfigurableEntities-4.ConfigureSubmissionFormsforeachEntitytype

You can also see an example on our demo site. Here's a Person entity: https://demo7.dspace.org/entities/person/b1b2c768-bda1-448a-a073-fc541e8b24d9  If you look at the Full metadata view you'll see those fields specified: https://demo7.dspace.org/entities/person/b1b2c768-bda1-448a-a073-fc541e8b24d9/full

So, if you specify those two fields, you should see the Person entity have a name.  If they are empty, then it will be "Untitled".
