Missing universities when selecting "Education" under "Personal information" in your profile #29

Open vruatsa opened 3 weeks ago

vruatsa commented 3 weeks ago

Describe the bug It has been reported by different people that they cannot find their university when adding the information in their profile. In this specific case the university "Washington State University" does not appear for selection. It is unknown to me whether the list is incomplete or there are issues with the search function (likely the former).

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Go to your own ResearchHub profile
  2. Click on the "pencil" button to edit your profile
  3. Click on a box under the "Education" section
  4. Search for "Washington State University"

Expected behavior As many universities (ideally all universities around the globe) as possible should appear in the menu to select your university.

Additional context It is unknown to me how the list of universities is being obtained, but if it is manually added, then adding more universities would be an option although a bit inefficient. An alternative, would be to try to obtain the universities from a list on the internet and linking it directly or simply adding it to the ResearchHub database.
