I am manually adding content from our existing publication on another platform into OJS. I have been using the QuickSubmit plug-in a lot. After every file is uploaded, I have to then edit its metadata, because at least 2 things are wrong or incorrect since they can’t be entered in the form:
- Copyright Year (it always uses the current year instead of the year of the publication date), and
- DOI (which is blank).
It would save me a bucketload of time if those fields could be entered using the QuickSubmit.
Another thing that takes a lot of time: When I’m correcting the metadata for the articles uploaded into a “future issue” using QuickSubmit, I go to Future Issues, pick the issue (e.g., http://foodsystemsjournal.org/index.php/fsj/editor/issueToc/13), click on the article, scroll down, and click on Edit Metadata. I make the changes and Save. Instead of returning me to the TOC for that issue, it brings me to the Article Summary (e.g., http://foodsystemsjournal.org/index.php/fsj/editor/submission/180). Now I have to page back or re-enter the URL for the TOC I was working my way through. It’s very tedious. If I was editing in the TOC for an issue, why can’t the system return me to that page instead of the Article Summary?
Thanks!
