Forcing using keywords in two languages

Hi,
Are there any settings in ojs to make some mandatory fields when uploading the file.
authors want my climb keywords, title and abstract in both languages.
regards!!

Hi @JoannaB,

Abstract and title fields are already required in the primary language; making them required in additional languages, and/or making the keywords required in any language, will require code modifications. (I’m assuming you’re asking about OJS 2.4.x?)

Hi @JoannaB,

You would need to edit the form checks in classes/submission/form/MetadataForm.inc.php.
