Release 5.13.7

• Suggested updates from the Psalm scanner.
• Move a query to a $.ajax call so that we can set a timeout. Without a timeout, the requests could last up to 10 minutes in the REDCap system. This would slow things down.
• I added a few new fields in two metadata files to update the Data Dictionary.
• Instead of automatically loading the first record when none is specified in the URL, I redirected the page so that the record=X is represented in the URL. This act automatically turns on a feature where users can update the record via a few buttons.
• I cleaned up some code by removing an unnecessary variable in a parameter list.
• A score distribution can now be displayed for co-authorships only, not just all publications. This feature was requested by the PsycheMERGE project.
• Major bug fix: The Mentee-Mentor Agreements' authentication was failing because it wasn't finding a pid in the URL. project_id was used instead. This fix alleviates that error.
• I cleaned up some code from a preg_split() to an explode() call. (A personal fault of mine is to overuse regular expressions, even when non-regexes might be more efficient.)
• Bug fix: I didn't download two variables, and the error was masked by the ?? operator. Fortunately, the Psalm scanner found them.
• An exception is now thrown when a file containing a JSON has an error. Before, this was failing silently.
• Refactoring by moving references in code.
• Adding the Flight Connector page to the Scholar Portal.

Release 5.13.6

• A w3.css external library being used for FT headers was removing a horizontal scrollbar from a REDCap page. A small CSS change addressed that.
• A page adding a new scholar was redirecting to the wrong page. I added a POST variable to address this.
• A user was providing an space " " on a CSV instead of an empty cell. The trim() call addressed this.
• I believe a ternary operator was being called incorrectly due to a wrong set of parentheses. I addressed this directly. There was no bug report. This was simply a logic error.
• I added two "Do Not Use" variables to pulling LDAP information. This will allow Vanderbilt users to avoid using bad data when identified.
• A count() item was not being processed when the 'records' field was null. This occurred when crons that ran across multiple projects was used. A ?? operator was sent to address the error.
• Apparently, PHP Storm formatted some lines. No logic change.
• If a Cron Job is a "multi" cron - that is, if it contains multiple pids - it should NOT be added to a remaining job queue. This was a bug. It was writing all "multi" crons to the queue, which eventually will run out of space. This will fix that problem.
• Finally, the "Do Not Use" field for LDAP is added here for processing purposes.
• Composer update
