That's where the media importer comes in handy: http://docs.collectiveaccess.org/wiki/Media_import
There are some settings that you can tweak to allow bigger requests, but in the past the apache web server had a hard limit of 2GB for a POST request baked in
There was no way to get past that
Maybe that's changed, but I doubt it. It's just not practical
I'm trying to run a data import. When I try to highlight the import file from the import directory, I can see the filename in the hierarchy view, but I cannot click on it to indicate that this is the file I want to use for the import. Is this a permissions issue, or is there something else going on?
You can only select directories. Individual files are only shown for informational purposes.
If you want to import a single file you can just upload it into the desired record directly.
im need to translate the interface - trying to find all the relevant files but i find it hard to find all of them
That should be all - the locale + the language file for the date/time expression parser
I'm getting an undefined jQuery().daterangepicker when viewing a search form with a date field in it. I can make this error go away by adding
, jquery/moment, jquery/daterangepicker, jquery/daterangepickercss to browsable in assets.conf. Is this the right place to do this, or should these only be loaded when actually loading a date field in the search form?
strings in a json wrapper to be exact
but the generated content itself are just strings
You should look at http://docs.collectiveaccess.org/wiki/Web_Service_API for the general services API
Hi, I'm pretty new to building advanced search forms in Providence and how to best use the 'Browse' function. First question - is there any more wiki advice on searching and browsing except for the 'Searching and Browsing' page? Second - I'm assuming the the items listed in 'Browse' be defined? Where is the editor for it?
It is described here: http://docs.collectiveaccess.org/wiki/Browse.conf
The search syntax is described here: http://docs.collectiveaccess.org/wiki/Search_Syntax
We are starting a push to create a new set of non-wiki, narrative documentation
If you have specific questions on search and browse (or anything else really) write them down and send them to us, and we'll try to answer them in these new docs
or we'll just answer them :-)
Hi @collectiveaccess, another question before I start compiling a list of queries into one doc (should I send it via the support forum?) Is there a way to export from Browse? E.g. If I want to search for entities with a 'donor' role and then export that to excel.. would be easier for staff to do it like that rather than using a search syntax
Yes, you can export from browse just the same as from search
there's an icon on the upper right hand side of the search and browse results that reveals all of the options
they include export to configured formats with mappings (eg. XML based formats) as well as Excel, Word, TAB, CSV, etc
