How to add manually a conference poster co-author to the publication page if that co-author is not at RG? The problem I have with this is that it seems to be impossible to add someone who is not listed as a previous co-author or collaborator. When creating a publication page for a conference poster, it is possible to select only the authors who appear in an automatic list, but not to enter their names manually. A request to change the author list in the existing publication page also does not work (the request is rejected). Maybe someone knows what to do in such a situation?
This is possible, I did this earlier and tried it right now again. Go to "Edit" (see "How do I edit my research item's details?" in https://help.researchgate.net/hc/en-us/articles/14293081125777-Reviewing-editing-and-featuring-your-research), under "Authors" click into the line "Add more authors", ignore the proposed list and type in the name. It may last a second or more until you will be able to type in something. In other cases, click on "Request edit" under "Authors". (I do not know exactly why the edit page differs in this respect, it may depend on how the research item page was created, by yourself or automatically by ResearchGate's algorithm.)
Dear Professor Dick,
Thank you very much for your reply and information.
