Does anyone know what the “designer” role is for in OJS3?
Its default settings are identical to those of the “layout editor” role.
But while a layout editor is required in the production stage of the editorial workflow, I didn’t find any description of the designer role in the documentation:
https://docs.pkp.sfu.ca/learning-ojs/en/users-and-roles
https://docs.pkp.sfu.ca/learning-ojs/en/production-publication
https://docs.pkp.sfu.ca/learning-ojs/en/editorial-workflow
Maybe the designer role is inherited from the PKP base code and makes more sense in other products (OMP, OPS, OCS)?
Here’s older related discussion (OJS2):
