You link a record to another record on the record's Relations tab. The number in the tab's title shows how many relations the record has.

  1. On the record's page, open the Relations tab.
  2. Press Add relation.
  3. In the Other publication field, search for the other record by its title or slug and select it.
  4. Select the type of the relation from the Relation type list.
  5. Select the direction of the relation from the Direction list.
  6. Press Add relation at the bottom of the window.

The relation is saved at once and shown on the tab as a short sentence. The Remove button on the row removes the relation after you confirm.

Direction of the relation

With This record → the selected record, the record you select becomes a chapter, translation, supplement or new edition of this record. For example, on a book's page you add its chapter with this option. With The selected record → this record, the relation goes the other way. For example, on a chapter's page you select its book with this option.

Rules

  • Only book chapters and proceedings papers can be linked to a book.
  • A chapter or proceedings paper can belong to only one book.
  • A record cannot be linked to itself.
  • Chapter, supplement and new edition relations cannot form a loop.

The Parent book field of a book chapter or proceedings paper record creates the same relation with the book. A chapter can be published only when its parent book is published.
