Affiliation field (author metadata) contains code snippets [OJS 3.2.1.1]

Dear OJS Community,

when authors submit their affiliation, the corresponding field in the metadata contains not only the affiliation but also code snippets.

Do you have an idea what could be the cause?

Thanks in advance and best regards,

Hi @adm_sub,

What theme are you using?

Hi @asmecher,

currently we are using cerulean, its a bootstrap 3 theme.

One cause for the error could be my modification of the file registrationForm.tpl?

However, the error also occurs with contributions that were submitted long before the change of the registration form. Therefore I have so far excluded this as a source of error, perhaps incorrectly?

Hi @adm_sub,

This appears to be an issue with an out-of-date template in the Bootstrap3 theme – I’ve filed it at Affiliation should not be localized on registration form · Issue #159 · NateWr/bootstrap3 · GitHub. The linked commit should give you an idea of what needs to be changed in the equivalent template in your theme.
