Hi folks,
I'd really like to customise the options that authors get shown for type of supplementary files to upload.
Currently they are given many options like "research instrument" that are not relevant to our journal.
There's only a couple of different types that they should be uploading, and having the right options
in the drop-down box might prevent them from uploading things we don't want them to...
plus the current options just confuse them since they make no sense in our context.
If someone could point me to where I customise the options, that'd be grand.
Thanks,
-Ian W.
PS. Apologies if this is in the documentation -- I looked but couldn't find it.

Hi Ian,
Changing the supplementary file options in the drop-down menu will require a code modification --- there's no way to change the options in the journal setup interface.
If you need further support re: changing the code, let me know and I can point you in the right direction.
