Background

This issue follows up on the implementation of displayOnCreate configuration for metadata fields at the collection level. The functionality has been completed (Issue #10476), and this issue is focused on integrating the feature into the Dataverse UI.

Feature Request

  • Modify the collection settings UI to allow users to configure the displayOnCreate property for metadata fields.
  • Ensure the UI displays this option similarly to how required fields are configured.
  • Make sure that updates to this setting are saved and properly reflected when creating datasets.

Justification

Currently, metadata fields selected for a collection only appear during dataset creation if they are required (or displayOnCreate by default). With this feature, users will have more control over dataset metadata visibility, improving metadata completeness and discoverability.

Implementation Considerations

  • Adapt the UI to include a checkbox or toggle for displayOnCreate within the metadata settings of a collection.
  • Ensure consistency with how required fields are managed in the UI.
  • Validate that the setting is correctly stored and applied when creating datasets.
