DSpace 7.5 provides new features & bug fixes to the 7.x platform.
New features include:
- Subscribe to email updates from a Community or Collection. See Email Subscriptions for more information.
- NOTE: This feature requires new scheduled cron settings to enable sending of emails. See Scheduled Tasks via Cron
- Supervision orders now available. Administrators can now allow Administrators to assign Group(s) to supervise other user's (in-progress) submissions. See Supervision Orders documentation for more details.
- System wide alerts which allow you to display a site-wide banner to announce scheduled downtime or maintenance . (Login as an Admin and visit the "System-wide Alert" menu option)
- Ability to disable self-registration or restrict to specific email domains. See See Authentication by Password documentation for more details.
- Search interface supports filtering by controlled vocabularies . (See the new "vocabularies" option in config.*.yml. By default, only the SRSC vocabulary is available in DSpace, but additional ones may be added as described in Authority Control of Metadata Values
- Support for custom Configurable Workflow steps, including "Select Single Reviewer Workflow" and "Score Review Workflow" (which were both available in v6.x). See Additional workflow steps documentation for more details.
- Ability to add Contextual Help Tooltips on any page. Currently, only a basic example is provided, with more likely to be added in future DSpace releases. In the meantime, additional tooltips may be added manually on a page-by-page basis. See Contextual Help Tooltips for more details.
- Basic MediaViewer now supports captioning for audio/video files. (Donated by yingjin) The caption file must be provided alongside the video/audio file. See documentation at Media Viewer Settings
- On Item pages, the "Edit Item > Metadata" tab has been redesigned to allow for easier reordering of metadata values, etc.
- On Item pages, metadata values can automatically link to "Browse By" results for that value. (Donated by The Library Code with the Support of German Institute for Urban Affairs) The existing "webui.browse.links.<n>" settings in dspace.cfg are now supported in version 7.x. See Links to Other Browse Contexts section of the Configuration documentation.
- "Show identifiers" submission step now availableallows you to optionally pre-register Handles or DOIs for all new submissions. (Donated by The Library Code with support of Technische Universität Hamburg and Technische Informationsbibliothek) When enabled, this new submission step allows you to optionally pre-register Handles or DOIs for all new submissions.
- New DataCite plugin for importing metadata from DataCite when starting a new submission. (Donated by @johannastaudinger, @floriangantner and @philipprumpf)
- New "dspace database skip" command can be used to skip problematic database migrations during upgrade to 7.x. See this common migration error that has impacted some older DSpace sites during their upgrade to 7.x.
