We use the OJS Version 3.2.1-4. We would like to set more criteria for automatic review reminder notifications. OJS should not only pay attention to the expiration of a review deadline (Overdue), but also not to send a reminder if the article has already been sent to another reviewer in the meantime, or if after acceptance the article’s status changes to „Copyediting”.
also not to send a reminder if the article has already been sent to another reviewer in the meantime
There are almost always more than one reviewer assigned at a time, so assigning a new reviewer doesn’t mean an existing review assignment is no longer needed. If a reviewer is no longer needed, the editor should cancel or unassign the reviewer.
