Hi @asmecher,
Its all alright, they are published. We already published several articles just for testing. And only they are indexed.
Hi @Vitaliy,
Ah, gotcha. I did ask Google Scholar what they would prefer for exposing XML, and we havenāt been able to work out a plan yet permitting OJS to tell Scholar where to fetch the XML.

Dear Asmecher
How to Index in Google Scholar? We have add plugin but we do not know how it works.
Our Website: http://ijellh.com/OJS/index.php/OJS
Please help.

Hi @IJELLH,
I suggest you make an account in google search console. Following is the link:
https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/home?hl=en
Once logged in, you add a property where you add you website and verify it.
Then add the sitemap of your website under ācrawlā
The path to the sitemap would be:
http://ijellh.com/OJS/index.php/OJS/sitemap
Wait for 2-6 weeks. In my case, it never took more than two weeks.
Let me know the results.
Best regards,
I think, this one is for their āgeneralā crawler. Here is a ādedicatedā one for Google Scholar:
https://partnerdash.google.com/partnerdash/d/scholarinclusions#p:id=new
Iāve done both. I got a complaint a little over a year ago that some articles were not in google scholar. I the made the ādedicatedā indexing request for both the whole site and the single journal. But nothing really happened. After a few weeks I did the request via Search Console and that resulted to the indexing of the missing articles also in scholar.
But to be honest, I have no idea which one of the requests actually resulted to the indexing. It could be it was the ādedicatedā one but only took more time 
AFAIK, Google and Google Scholar use two completely different crawlers. The indexing time after using the ādedicatedā request form may take āa few weeksā (that was said somewhere in their documentation). So that might have been a coincidence.
I have never used the ādedicatedā one and have no experience about it.
However, with the search console, our single journal installation is available in google search in 1-2 days and in scholar withing 2 weeks. We never had a problem with indexing.
As posted in previous threads, google scholar indexing is not transparent and nobody knows what are the exact requirements.
Well, then they might be related somehow 
Strange enough, but when the university is large enough, they might even contact its representatives themselves, offering some support. They even gave us a somewhat helpful document on metatags, which was a bit more detailed than the one available through their help center.

google scholar and many others indexing journal work base on OAI. Please Check you OAI is working well or not.
We have been able to index in Google scholar our journals at https://journals.eduindex.org/ successfully. This can be done through publication of good research papers and upgrading OJS.
Hi all,
at the moment, it seems to me that the whole procedure of submission is completely not working on G Scholar. See the screenshot, after having selected āOJSā there are no more possible actions to move forwards
All the best,
Leonardo
Hi @Efren_Lobo,
Google maintains that website, not us (PKP); youāll have to contact Google Scholar to find out why the page isnāt working.

Guys if you are sure that ojs is working properly and including metatags in article pages There is something you should do with google. Before we could submit new journals on Googleās partnerdash. Now I thing google automated this process and you should only register your site on google search console and load your sitemaps. After 1 or 2 weeks it should appear on google scholar automaticly.
