• Add dc.description.sponsorship to Discovery sidebar facets and make investors clickable in item view (#232)
• I think this query should find and replace all authors that have "," at the end of their names:

dspacetest=# update metadatavalue set text_value = regexp_replace(text_value, '(^.+?),$', '\1') where metadata_field_id=3 and text_value ~ '^.+?,$';
UPDATE 95
dspacetest=# select text_value from  metadatavalue where metadata_field_id=3 and text_value ~ '^.+?,$';
 text_value
------------
(0 rows)

• In this case the select query was showing 95 results before the update

• Comment on DSpace Jira ticket about author lookup search text (DS-2329)

• Seems the database's author authority values mean nothing without the authority Solr core from the host where they were created!

2016-07-05

• Amend backup-solr.sh script so it backs up the entire Solr folder
• We really only need statistics and authority but meh
• Fix metadata for species on DSpace Test:

$ ./fix-metadata-values.py -i /tmp/Species-Peter-Fix.csv -f dc.Species -t CORRECT -m 94 -d dspacetest -u dspacetest -p 'fuuu'

• Will run later on CGSpace
• A user is still having problems with Sherpa/Romeo causing crashes during the submission process when the journal is "ungraded"
• I tested the patch for DS-2740 that I had found last month and it seems to work
• I will merge it to 5_x-prod
