Editing EPrints Glossary (section)

== A ==
=== Abstract page ===
An abstract page (sometimes referred to as a [[#Summary page|summary page]]) is a web page for an [[#Archive|archive]] providing [[#Metadata|metadata]] about a particular [[#EPrint|eprint]] (a.k.a [[#Publication record|publication record]]).  Most prominently it displays the abstract for the publication but also its title, [[#Citation|citation]] links to download associated [[#Document|documents]] and further metadata in a [[#Summary table|summary table]].

Abstract pages are cached.  This cache is cleared when an eprint is modified.  Otherwise, these caches can be cleared, (so new cached version will be generated on next request), by running the following command or by clicking on the "[[Admin/System Tools/Regenerate Abstracts|Regenerate Abstracts]]" button in the [[#Admin menu|admin menu]]:
 EPRINTS_PATH/bin/epadmin refresh_abstracts ARCHIVEID
One or all abstracts pages can be regenerated by using the [[API:bin/generate_abstracts|bin/generate_abstracts]] command.

=== Access ===
An [[Access Object|access]] is a [[#Data object|data object]] that represent a HTTP request accessing either an [[#Abstract page|abstract page]] or [[#Document|document]].
=== Actions tab ===
The actions tab appears on the [[#View page|view page]] for a [[#Data object|data object]].  However, typically the terms are used in the context of an [[#EPrint|eprint]].  This tab includes buttons to carry out various action against the data object.  For an eprint this may include:
* Depositing an item.
* Creating a new version (i.e. one that succeeds the current item).
* Using as a template to create a completely new item based on the current item.
* Editing an item.
* Removing an item (i.e. full deleting it from the [[#Archive|archive]]).  With or without a notification.
* Moving to the [[#Live archive|live archive]].
* Moving to the [[#Review buffer|review buffer]].
* Reindexing the item.
* Changing the [[#Depositing user|depositing user]] of the item.
* Exporting the item in one of various formats.

=== Admin menu ===
The [[Admin|admin menu]] is only accessible to [[#Repository admin|repository admins]] that provides access to various administrative tools to manage their [[#Repository|repository]].

=== Advanced search ===
An advanced search over [[#EPrint|eprints]] in the [[#Live archive|live archive]].  Unlike [[#Simple search|simple search]] this provides multiple input fields to individually search against particular [[#Metadata field|metadata fields]].  Advanced search configuration can be found in [[eprint_search_advanced.pl]].

=== Archive ===
Often conflated with [[#Repository| repository]].  [[#EPrints repository software|EPrints repository software]] provides a repository that can host multiple archives.  Commonly a repository will only host a single archive, so the terms are often used interchangeably.

New archives can be created using the [[API:bin/epadmin|epadmin command]], as follows:
 EPRINTS_PATH/bin/epadmin create <zero|pub>
Where <tt>zero</tt> is to create an archive with no [[#Flavour|flavour]] and <tt>pub</tt> is to create an archive using the [[#Publication flavour|publication flavour]].  See [[Getting Started]] for more information.

Content, configuration and sometimes code for an archive will be found at its [[#Archive level|archive level]], i.e.
 EPRINTS_PATH/archives/ARCHIVEID/
E.g. <tt>/opt/eprints3/archives/example/</tt>

=== Archive ID ===
The ID of an [[#Archive|archive]].  This is set by the first input when the archive is created using the [[API:bin/epadmin|bin/epadmin]] command line tool.  This will also be the directory name for the archive under [[#EPrints repository software|EPrints']] ''archives/'' sub-directory.   Guides on this wiki often use the placeholder <tt>ARCHIVEID</tt>.
=== Archive level ===
This is a shorthand term to describe a configuration file that appears under the [[#Archive|archive]]'s directory structure or to an effect that will only apply to a specific archive rather than the [[#Repository|repository]] as a whole, (which may have multiple archives). 
=== Archive name ===
The name of an [[#Archive|archive]].  This is set by an early input when the archive is created using the [[API:bin/epadmin|bin/epadmin]] command line tool.  Where the value set will be copied as a [[#Phrase|phrase]] to the archive's ''archive_name.xml'' under [[archives/ARCHIVEID/cfg/lang/en/phrases/]].
