I am setting up a new OJS3.1 journal site, using Manuscript theme.
I want a menu item “home” that points to the journal landing page, i.e. the page that loads when just entering the journal url.
How do I do this? I have added a new menu item “home”, pointing to custom url journalurl/index, since I cannot leave the field blank. However, index creates a new page “home”, rather than pointing to the landing page. Have I missed an obvious solution to this seemingly simple task?
If you are not using pretty permalinks the link should look like
http://site.com/journalpath/index.php/index
With pretty permalinks it looks like
http://site.com/journalpath/index
Unless of course you have something more complicated in htaccess settings.
Thanks for your reply. I tried both without success. However, it led me to experiment, and it seems like just adding a dot (.) to the url field of the custom page that the menu item points to does the trick. Clicking the menu item now leads to site.com/journalpath/
This is what it looks like:
