==ORCID Field== ORCID Support adds a new <tt>orcid</tt> field to both the <tt>creators</tt> and <tt>editors</tt> field, as well as the adding a new stage to the edit user workflow where an ORCID may be stored. All of these fields are of type <tt>orcid</tt>, a special type of text field that validates the ORCID is of the [https://support.orcid.org/hc/en-us/articles/360006897674-Structure-of-the-ORCID-Identifier correct format] (16 digits broken into 4 groups of 4 separated by a dash, e.g. 0000-0003-1495-7122). The field also checks that the final digit of the ORCID, the checksum, is valid and a warning is displayed if the ORCID is invalid in any way. [[File:orcid_creators.png|800px|thumb|none]] [[File:orcid_user_profile.png|800px|thumb|none]] [[File:orcid_warning.png|800px|thumb|none]] The lookup script for the <tt>creators</tt> and <tt>editors</tt> fields has also been updated to include the ORCID where this can be retrieved from other records where the ORCID has already been stored. The <tt>creators</tt> and <tt>editors</tt> fields will also be automatically be populated from user profiles if the <tt>creators</tt> or <tt>editors</tt> ID subfields can be used to lookup a corresponding user profile.
