In the 1.4.0 version from the "Add new resource" form, you can click, to add a controlled name, and in the new version (1.4.2) it is not possible. So we have to pre define and add all the subjects and other controlled name before to open the catalog to the users. Is that right? How can we customize this option just like in 1.4.0 version?

If you're running the very latest version of PHP (5.2.5), it may be better to install CWIS 1.4.2, rather than 1.4.0. Even though 1.4.2 is technically a beta release, it does include a number of changes that are intended to make it work better with some of the newer PHP configurations that are cropping up with PHP 5.2.x.

(Of course > we'll make a backup first). If you install a new version of SPT or CWIS over an older version (that is, into the same directory), it will upgrade the existing version and the existing database. Of course, as you noted, it's always best to make a backup of both first.

In 1.4.2 you should be able to add controlled names by clicking on the "Search" button on the resource editing screen, and entering the new name and any variant in the "Add New..." section at the bottom of the page. However that "Add New" section will only appear if you are logged in with an account that has Controlled Name Administrator privileges.

Last November, we had 20 entries from the California State Railroad Museum. When I checked yesterday, there were 14 entries. We lost one record on 2008-02-17 when two records being worked on merged into one record, with parts of each. Since we did not notice the problem until a few minutes later, we can't re-create what happened. And we have no idea when the other five records vanished. Any suggestions?
