Adding new metadata

Assuming you want to add a new, custom metadata field to DSpace (ie cg.subject.icarda), the procedure is:

• Add to metadata registry (control panel)
• Add to browse indexes (dspace.cfg)?
  • webui.browse.index.21 = icardasubject:metadata:cg.subject.icarda:text
• Add to search indexes (dspace.cfg)? Lucene only! DSpace 3.x!
• Add to search filters in discovery.xml
• Add to sidebar facets in discovery.xml
• Add strings to messages.xml
  • xmlui.ArtifactBrowser.ConfigurableBrowse.icardasubject.column_heading
  • xmlui.ArtifactBrowser.ConfigurableBrowse.title.metadata.icardasubject
  • xmlui.ArtifactBrowser.ConfigurableBrowse.trail.metadata.icardasubject
  • xmlui.ArtifactBrowser.Navigation.browse_icardasubject
  • xmlui.ArtifactBrowser.SimpleSearch.filter.icardasubject? Only if we want to be able to search from Advanced Search, aka /discover...
• Add to Atmire CUA or Listings and Reports?
  • dspace/config/modules/atmire-listings-and-reports.cfg
  • dspace/config/modules/atmire-cua.cfg
