Hi Robert,
The Author filter and the author menu in the admin panel are automatically generated from the author and editor data of each publication. Users means a filter for the publication lists of each member of a research group (for those, who have a wordpress user account), which is collected manually by the users self. So, with the second, the user can decide, which publications are on his list and which not. That’s the difference between the both. Currently the user_id based list can only manageged by the user self. I hope that answers the question?
For the checkboxes:
The following selectors should work:
// for selecting all
.teachpress_filter select {..Here comes your CSS ..}
// for single select
.teachpress_filter select#pub_year {..Here comes your CSS ..}
.teachpress_filter select#pub_type {..Here comes your CSS ..}
.teachpress_filter select#pub_user {..Here comes your CSS ..}
.teachpress_filter select#pub_author {..Here comes your CSS ..}
Hi winkm89,
Thank you very much for your answer. Your information will be very
helpful for me. One little question more if I can? To be visible on
the front panel in tp_list shortcode should user_id data be
manageged only in phpmyadmin (MySQL) and not in admin panel of WP?
I mean here about connections between user_id -> publications list.
Thank you once more for your committment in solving my questions.
Have a nice day.
Kind regards,
Robert
You can only manage the connections between publications and your own user account in the admin panel. This is the menu point “Your publications”. Adding a connection between a publication an other user account is possible (with the bookmark section in the add/edit publication menu), but no deletion of this connections. (This should prevent that users mutually delete their publication lists 🙂 )
