Non-primary authors not appearing in author lists [#2087805]

I love the module; thank you for it! I recently rolled it out for the first time to my staff, only to realize after the fact (and after telling them "your publications will appear in a new tab on your account page") that they don't unless the person is the first author. (For example, I have an author S.L. Hegwer, who has co-authored 19 papers. However, his author publication list is empty. I've attached screenshots to illustrate.)

How can I fix this? Is there a setting somewhere I missed, or a tweak in the code I could make? Any help, guidance or suggestions would be most welcome.

I have the same problem on my site and it is very frustrating. Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks.

Did anyone find a solution to this issue?

Not the same, but probably related, it's #2568849: Search by Author only showing primary author's records.

Hello,
The A-Z build-in list of author is indeed a list of 1st authors.
What you ask for is a personal bibliography. It is possible to see all publications of an author based on the author ID in the URL (e.g. http://eunethta.be/htadbd7/biblio?f[author]=528 )
In my case, the author list works fine http://eunethta.be/htadbd7/biblio/authors
As a workaround, I would have a look at views. With D6, biblio can be shown in a list (e.g. http://vortal.htai.org/?q=cpil), and views can also generate AtoZ lists...)
Hope it helps
Patrice

We had a Drupal 7 view that used a contextual filter (by last name or author id both worked) to display a list of publications where a given faculty member was an author. Prior to biblio-7.x-1.0, the contextual filter displayed references matching a given author even if they were not the first author. After upgrading to version 1 (and now 1.1), the same view only shows references for which first authors match. Coincidentally, we also just updated the server so it's running php7.0 and MySQL5.7.

I can see that the list provided by the biblio module can be used to view all references for a given author regardless of whether they're a first author or not (e.g., ?f[author]=161). Is there a way to get views contextual filters to again search across the author fields?

I'm happy to help in any way I can. I could test configuration changes and/or patches.

Version:

7.x-1.0-rc7

» 7.x-1.x-dev

Perhaps you could use git bisect to determine which commit to biblio changed how it behaves.

Hi Liam,

I found a related issue that described perfectly a work around that addressed this problem on my site: https://www.drupal.org/project/biblio/issues/1933188

Maybe this is a bug that can be fixed?

Thanks again for your replies to my posts :^)
