Hello, everyone. I have the following question: if I have an article with a large number of authors (several hundred or even thousands), is it possible to display them by dividing the list into pages. Thank you in advance for your answer.

Sincerely, Maksim

Hi Maksim,

In DSpace 7, the author list for an Item (article) should automatically only show the first 10 authors followed by a "View more..." link.  Clicking that link will then display the next 10 authors.   This is how basic pagination is currently achieved in metadata fields which have a very large number of values.   There is currently not a way to jump to a specific page (e.g. to see the 100th author, you'd need to click "View more.." 10 times in a row).  But, we'd welcome brainstorms or code from anyone if anyone on this list has found a way to achieve that.

The code for this behavior can be found in the `metadata-representation-list.component.ts` which is used to display authors (and other fields): https://github.com/DSpace/dspace-angular/blob/dspace-7_x/src/app/item-page/simple/metadata-representation-list/metadata-representation-list.component.ts

But I forgot to mention that I am using Dspace - CRIS 2023.02.00, is it possible to do something similar to the above in Dspace - CRIS? Thank you in advance for your answer.
