This will still allow JMs to 'enroll' inactive users for populating the Masthead etc. (& will still encourage filling in user information if these users become active at a later date). It will also make back issue importing easier (esp. in the case where authors from way back didn't have email information to begin with). The current workaround is to add a garbage email address, but I don't think this is the best way to go about it. This may have been filed somewhere, but for the life of me I can't find a record of it. (Courtesy of http://pkp.sfu.ca/support/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=4682&p=18218#p18218 and others) 15672 zhouluyi 2009-07-03 14:15:03 -0700 One option that might be simpler to implement at first, would be to allow a role to be just a static text field. Fill it the way you like it. No need for user accounts altogether. I haven't look at the tables yet, but I guess that a simple flag indicating the user is a ghost in the "roles" table and a new table with just IDs and Names columns would suffice to do the work. For the interface, just a button to add a "Ghost Role", and then just render each user of the page according to the flag mentioned above.

We'd need to check a few places to make sure that blank emails are handled properly, but using "none" is anglocentric. 16805 david_kolin 2009-09-14 12:30:37 -0700 Jason's attachment doesn't seem to work for me. The first user created with an email address of "none" proceeds as expected, but additional ones return an error of "The selected email address is already in use by another user." (I needed to apply the diff by hand, and may have made a mistake doing so. Let me know if that looks to be the case.) 22985 jmacgreg 2011-02-28 13:43:53 -0800 Scheduling against 2.3.5.
