The software overview page design has a highlights section. This section is shown only when the software highlights are defined by RSD admin.
You can customise the software highlights section title in settings.json
by providing a value for the optional property software_highlights_title
.
ORCID users
This section shows the list of ORCIDs that are allowed to log in to the RSD. Because anyone can create an ORCID account, we decided to limit access only to ORCID users that are approved by an RSD administrator.
In order to be able to log in with ORCID credentials, the ORCID authentication provider needs to be enabled and the ORCID of that user need to be added to this list.
You can add, search and delete ORCIDs from the RSD. Use the bulk import button to add up to 50 ORCID users to the RSD at once.
RSD users
This section shows all RSD users who logged in to RSD at least once. You can search for users, assign the adminstrator role (rsd_admin) or delete an user account.

RSD contributors
The page shows the list of all contributors and team members. You can search by name, email or ORCID. You can change the values in the table by clicking on the value. The values is automatically saved after you navigate out of the edit box. The link in the last column will open the software or project item where this contributor/team member is used.

You can delete the keyword only when it is not used in any software or project.
