In the current version the maximum number of files I can upload at once is too low. For instance 500 would be better.

It would be nice to drag and drop folders so that they really appear as folders in the archive.

If I dragged and dropped a file I finally do not want to upload, I want to be able to remove it without refreshing the whole page and losing the values I already typed in the fields.

It may happens that clicking on "edit" on an archive opens an incomplete window, with missing descriptors. If I save, those missing descriptors also disappear from the archive.

As there is an authentication, it is necessary to use https.

In public/js/explore.js in the following code:

  // ---------------------------- Page Loading ----------------------------- //

  // use the saved search if present in URL
  if (getUrlParameter('search')) {
    $.get('api/search/id/' + getUrlParameter('search'), function(search) {
      if (search._id) {
        return new Promise(function(resolve) {
          if (search.date) {
            if (typeof search.date === 'string') {
              // unique date
              $('#inputDate').val(search.date);
            } else {
              // date range
              $('#checkboxDateRange').trigger('click');
              $('#inputDate2').prop('disabled', false);
              $('#inputDate').val(search.date[0]);
              $('#inputDate2').val(search.date[1]);
            }
          }
          if (search.archiveCategory) {
            $('#selectCategory').val(search.archiveCategory);
            $('#selectCategory').trigger('change');
          }
          if (search.archiveAuthor) {
            $('#selectAuthor').val(search.archiveAuthor);
          }
          if (search.descriptors.length > 0) {
            search.descriptors.forEach(function(descriptor) {
              selectedDescriptor.push(descriptor.name);
              addDescriptorToForm(descriptor.name, descriptor.value, descriptor.regex)
              });
          }
          if (search.ids.length > 0) {
            $('#inputIds').val(search.ids.join(', '));
          }
          setTimeout(function() {
            resolve();
          }, 100);
        }).then(function() {
          $('#form-search').trigger('change');
        });
      } else {
        console.log('Error with the search ID in params.');
        console.log(search);
      }
    });

There are two triggers leading to a search and a refresh of the results:

$('#selectCategory').trigger('change');
...
$('#form-search').trigger('change');

The issue is that they happen too fast one after the other, and they are both asynchronous.

• If the first search is over before the second one, it is alright the list of result is corresponding to the full search form with all the descriptors, because it is the last trigger which leads to the displayed results.
• If the first search lasts longer than the second one, the second search is being masked by the first one, and the displayed results are not correct. This happens when the second search leads to a few number of results while the first search leads to a great number of results. Indeed, the first search is triggered when only the category is set, and the second search is triggered when all the descriptors are set.

What needs to be done (two possibilities):

• Avoid triggering a search while updating the category, it is unnecessary because this search is immediately erased by the second one (the real one).
• Wait for the end of the first search before triggering the second one. But it may lead to unnecessary lag.
