Help with OJS statistics

Greetings!

I need help with checking statistic of last semester (July-December/2015). I need to know:

  • number of submissions
  • number of articles accepted (regardless of when they were originally submitted).

OJS only shows statistics based on year. I can’t seem to find out these data within a date range.

I’m using OJS 2.4.5.0.

Please advise.

Hi @alexxxmendonca,

The function that generates these statistics – the getArticleStatistics function in classes/journal/JournalStatisticsDAO.inc.php – will take arbitrary beginning and end dates, but the controller code that calls it only gives it year start/end dates. I’d suggest altering the controller (the statistics function in pages/about/AboutHandler.inc.php) or perhaps making a new call to that function to extract the specific statistics you need.

Hi @asmecher,

Thank you for your answer, but I am not a developer myself. There isn’t a way to do this via the standard user interface?

Hi @alexxxmendonca,

Not without modifying the code, unfortunately.
