Using qualdrop value in submission form for choosing different types of contributor

[Jerevan]

Hi everyone.

I have a question regarding the submission-form.xml config file.

In our institution, we are trying to enable submitters to be able to add more different types  of contributor. Currently, the submission looks like this:

` <relation-field> <!--NTK edit-->
                    <relationship-type>isContributorOfPublication</relationship-type>
                    <search-configuration>person</search-configuration>
                    <repeatable>true</repeatable>
                    <label>Contributor<label>
                    <style>col-sm-8</style>
                    <hint>Insert name of the contribuotr in format Surname, Name.</hint>
                    <linked-metadata-field>
                        <dc-schema>dc</dc-schema>
                        <dc-element>contributor</dc-element>
                        <input-type value-pairs-name="contributor_types">qualdrop_value</input-type>
                    </linked-metadata-field>
                    <required></required>
                </relation-field>
`

however the chosen contributor type is not inserted into the qualifier field and it doesn't matter which qualifier the submitter chooses, the name of the contributor is saved to the element dc.contributor

From the documentation, I think that our goal is how the wualdrop_value input type is supposed to work.

But maybe we are mistaken, or we have made some other mistake which went unnoticed.

Could you please review our submission form code snippet and provide any help or assistance?

Also if anyone has a working qualdrop_value input element in their own submission_forms.xml file and in their DSpace instance, all examples of the working code would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you, best regards
