"Login As" for Reviewer

Dear all,

just putting out there - I really like the “Login As” option made available to the editor in OJS 3.0.2 under the author’s name.

What do you think about adding the same option for reviewers? Sometimes, our reviewers prefer to send in their opinions through e-mail and it would simplify (and speed up) things to have this option instead of searching for the reviewer under users.

thanks

Hi @Makso1212,

OTOH rather than using “Log In As”, it should be possible already to edit the review assignment directly and record the reviewer’s recommendation.

Hi @asmecher,

True, except with the reviewer form. If you want to edit that, you need to go to user → find the reviewer → login as.

I am not saying this is a big problem, or even a small one; I’m just pointing out the possible convenience of adding this possibility - of course, if this does not require extensive work.

thanks

Hi @Makso1212,

Thanks – I’ve filed this along with a few similar feature requests over at Improve editor control over reviews · Issue #2508 · pkp/pkp-lib · GitHub.
