Note that we have updated this post due to an error that occurs when configuring the plugin in some cloud storage platforms like Google Drive and Dropbox. We are talking about Omeka version 2.4.1 with Simple Vocab Plus version 1.1.4 (or earlier) will display an error screen and the plugin will stop working (permanent error screen) In this case, there is an option to connect to an external file hosted in several cloud platforms. The functionality of this plugin is very similar to Simple Vocab, also we define the controlled vocabulary list from the plugin options.
OMEKA DROPBOX PLUGIN HOW IT WORKS UPDATE
The inconvenient, if you want to update the vocabulary terms (descriptors), you must do it from an admin profile in the Omeka admin panel, and this point can be problem when a team is working on the thesaurus. So, the allowed data is the data displayed as option, this inflexibility is the key to get uniformed descriptions.
When adding data to an item element defined to use Simple Vocab, a drop-down list of options (descriptors) that have been defined in the plugin is shown. In the plugin configuration page, just choose the element, and enter the terms one per line. This plugin allows you to create a controlled vocabulary that can be associated with any element of the Omeka items, including the Dublin Core metadata schema and the specific fields of each Item Metadata Type. Both have a similar function, so then we explain the differences and their features: 1.- Simple Vocab Omeka solves this demanded function with 2 plugins (add-ons) that must be installed in the application.
Working with these elements ensure standard descriptions of each field, especially when a team is adding data in the application. One of the most frequent questions made by our Omeka plan's customers, is related with the possibility of using controlled vocabularies in the Omeka administration panel.
