Editing Miscellaneous Config Options (section)

== G ==
* '''generic_filenames''' - New (non-history) files will be added to the documents directory as <code>&lt;fileid&gt;.bin</code> rather than there actual filename.  This can be useful if users are uploading files with names that use special characters that are not compatible with the filesystem or database encoding.  EPrints will already allow existing files to be manually changed to the <code>&lt;fileid&gt;.bin</code> to provide a simple fix for existing issues using special characters, which subsequently cannot be downloaded.
* '''get_current_user''' - Allows a bespoke function to defined to determine who the current user is.  (Without a setting current user is determine from cookie or basic authentication attributes in the request).
* '''get_custom_view_header''' - Allows a function to be defined that adds custom HTML markup (XML DOM object) to a browse view page.  By default this is after the navigation but before any listings / menus.
* '''get_custom_view_header_location''' - Allows content for <code>get_custom_view_header</code> (if defined) to be added either before the navigation (<code>before_nav</code>) or after the navigation (<code>after_nav</code>).  (Without a setting it is added after the navigation.  Only added since EPrints 3.4.6).
* '''get_login_url''' - Allows bespoke function to defined to generate the login URL for the repository archive.  Useful for [[Shibboleth]] or other SAML-based login.  (Without a setting <code>/cgi/users/login</code> is used).
* '''get_request_eprint_descriptor''' - Allows a bespoke function to be defined to generate the descriptor for an eprint.  This may be useful if multiple eprints have the same title.  (Without a setting the <code>title</code> of the eprint is used as the descriptor).
* '''[[Miscellaneous Config Options/get_users_owned_eprints|get_users_owned_eprints]]''' - Allows function to be defined that lists the set of eprints a user owns, instead of just those where their <code>userid</code> is set on the eprint record.  Should be defined in conjunction with <code>does_user_own_eprint</code>.
