Ofte stilte spørsmål

Do I need a Zenodo account?

Not necessarily. If you’re displaying a public Zenodo community, you don’t need an account. However, if you want to access private/restricted records or use ORCID mode, you’ll need a Zenodo Access Token.

How do I get a Zenodo Access Token?

  1. Log in to Zenodo.org
  2. Go to Account Settings Applications Personal Access Tokens
  3. Create a new token with appropriate permissions
  4. Copy the token and paste it in the plugin settings

Can I display my publications by name instead of ORCID?

Unfortunately, no. Zenodo API queries do not work reliably with author names since they can’t differentiate between authors with similar names. ORCID provides a unique identifier for each researcher.

How do I find my Zenodo Community ID?

Your Community ID is the part after /communities/ in your community URL. For example, if your community URL is https://zenodo.org/communities/digiwell, your Community ID is digiwell.

Can I customize the appearance?

Yes! Go to Settings Publications Design tab to customize colors, fonts, font sizes, and border radius. The plugin uses modern CSS custom properties for easy theming.

Does the plugin cache API results?

Yes, the plugin caches Zenodo API responses for 1 hour to improve performance and reduce API calls. The cache is automatically cleared after updates.
