Hello, I want to move the journal site from modx to ojs. There was a question - whether it is possible to transfer journal issues having kept structure of url like /language/issue number/article id
Hi @extrim25
To move authors, issues, and/or articles from other systems into OJS it is recommended use XML file.
You can see examples and samples of XML in these links:
users -
https://pkp.sfu.ca/wiki/index.php/Importing_and_Exporting_Data#Users_XML_Plugin
Issues - https://github.com/asmecher/lensGalley/blob/master/tests/functional/issue.xml
Regarding your second question (URL structure) we have not such functionality yet, so you will have to map in somehow (.htaccess in apache) your old url’s to new ones if you intent preserve them functional.

Is it possible to add a language code to the urls?
Hi @extrim25
We do not handle yet slug-like url in OJS. It is in future plan but unfortunately I have no timeline to give you. Although if you have development skills you may contribute with code improvements and/org suggestions with PKP /OJS on Github.

Hi @extrim25,
Regarding languages and URLs, this is not a perfect match with what you’re looking for, but if you’re doing redirects and want to specify a language I’d suggest having a look at the setlocale URL variable. (There are other forum posts referring to this too.)
