DSpace 7.6 Bitstream-level Embargos

[Carolyn Sullivan]

In DSpace 6.3, users were able to embargo all uploaded files at once, which was super helpful for when a user uploaded 20+ files to support their thesis.  In DSpace 7.6 though, it seems the user has to edit each upload individually to designate an embargo for it.  Is there any way to allow a user to embargo all uploaded files at once that isn't an item-level embargo (ie: we want the item page/metadata visible, we just don't want people to view the files)?  

Thanks,

Carolyn.

At this time, there is not a "bulk" embargo option for Bitstreams in the Submission UI.  You are welcome to submit a ticket for this feature, however we'd need to locate a community volunteer interested in helping build such a feature out (as all development is volunteer-based for DSpace).  Here's where to submit a ticket: https://github.com/DSpace/dspace-angular/issues
