Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
As a Moderators/Editors, and as a Submitting Author, I should be able to send an email from the item view page to ask that the co-author(s) connect their ORCID iD to Janeway via authentication. No one should not be required to manually input an ORCID iD.

Bonus: Ideally, no registration/activation should be necessary.

Describe the solution you'd like

  1. If there is no ORCID iD, and “requesting ORCID authentication” is enabled in the settings, then the submitting author or moderator/editor should sees “Ask to verify ORCID iD” (or something similar) in author list:

  2. Clicking “Ask to verify” opens pop-up window to send an email to the co-author. The iD request email should be a modifiable template.

  3. The co-author shouldn’t be required to log in – use similar workflow to the “Invite Comment from Reviewer”
