In this page query all documents in the index for each author name. It showed author name and all author's documents counter.
How could I add some metadata values associated to "Person entity" in this author's list inside magenta rectangles? Exists any configuration in discovery.xml to do this? Should I customize frontend and backend? I can't find how to get it.
Thanks.

Hi,
Unfortunately, I don't think that's possible in DSpace at this time. Those Author fields in the "Browsing by Author" page are simple metadata values (as Browse by Author is simply letting you browse all Items by "dc.contributor.author" and/or "dc.creator" field values). So, those values do *not* correspond with Person Entities. That means there's no additional metadata values that can be displayed, as all "Browse" interfaces in DSpace just use simple metadata fields at this time (e.g. Browse by Title is browsing all Items by "dc.title", Browse by Subject is browsing all Items by "dc.subject", etc.)
