PoP 8 new features (14): Transparency & replicability
Week 14 of a weekly announcement of new features of Publish or Perish version 8
On the 1st of November 2021, nearly exactly 15 years after first launching Publish or Perish, we released version 8 of the software. After two months of "soft launch", we are now ready to publicise its new features. To do so, I will post about a new feature every Thursday. If you want a complete overview have a look at this blogpost: Publish or Perish version 8.
We improved the diagnostic log allowing the user to see exactly what search strings Publish or Perish sends to the various data sources. This allows advanced users to verify that the searches they are running are translated as they intend. It also allows them to replicate the search on the web platform in question if so desired.
You will find this log on the Publish or Perish main menu:
- Windows - use the Help > Open Diagnostic Log command from the main menu bar
- macOS - use the Publish or Perish > Open Diagnostic Log command from the main menu bar
