6.20 - Improved files management, linking existing accounts

30 January 2025

File transfers

The way we handle file transfers and storage has received a much awaited update!  If you identify any hiccup when downloading/uploading a file from Nestor, please let us know at support@nestor-edp.org


Improvement of the file module

The file module has received the following updates:

  • Files are now ordered
    • first by filetype order
    • then alphabetically
  • No more confirmation popup when changing a file type
  • The module display is now much clearer on small screens

Co-author validation: linking an existing account

Corresponding author sometimes uses an alternate address (for example a gmail) to register a co-author on an article. In that case, this can result in a duplicate account if the co-author is already registered in Nestor.

This update will address the problem by proposing the coauthor to discard the alternate address and link his/her historic account:
