Browsing by Subject Category on hover, tooltip displays a label in another language

[Nason Bimbe]

When you hover over a subject category on https://demo.dspace.org/browse/srsc, the tooltip displayed is in another language.

Is this a design decision or a bug?

Thanks

Hi Nason,

What you are seeing is 'expected behavior' because the subject categories on the Demo site are from SRSC (Swedish Research Subject Categories).  So, when you hover over the terms, you are seeing it's description in Swedish.   These descriptions *are configurable* though as they are stored in the "srsc.xml" file in the DSpace backend codebase at https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/blob/main/dspace/config/controlled-vocabularies/srsc.xml

So, if you'd rather change the language of the hover overs, you can modify the "<hasNote>" entries in that file.

Or, you can use an entirely different Controlled Vocabulary of Subject terms by creating a similar XML file as described in the documentation.

You can also remove the controlled vocabulary entirely from the search interface by modifying the User Interface "vocabularies" configuration as described at: https://wiki.lyrasis.org/display/DSDOC7x/User+Interface+Configuration#UserInterfaceConfiguration-ControlledVocabulariesinSearchFilters
