OJS 2.4.8.3 Articles links are broken in published issue after it was imported from other journal

The task was to export the issue from journal A to journal B and publish articles in journal B. Import (using Articles & Issues XML Plugin) to journal B went successfully. However, when I published the issue, the link to the article returned to journal B homepage.

Steps I took leading up to the issue
For example:

  1. Go to journal A.
  2. Export unpublished Issue with 134 items (with assigned DOIs) .
  3. Go to journal B.
  4. Import 134 issue items into new Future issue.
  5. Click on “Publish Issue” https://journals.rtu.lv/index.php/conect/issue/view/292
  6. Click on Article, e.g., " Assessing Thermal Comfort…"
  7. Click on PDF file
  8. In both cases returns to journal B homepage.

OJS version used OJS 2.4.8.3.

Hello @Nadja_Lorence,

The version of OJS that you’re using is no longer maintained or supported by PKP. I recommend that you upgrade to the newest version of OJS. However, other community members may wish to offer assistance with your question.

You may find the following resources helpful in preparing for and performing the upgrade:

These resources will introduce you to OJS 3 and how it is different from OJS 2:

You may need to seek professional support to upgrade your installation. This can usually be acquired from the service provider that hosts or maintains your software, such as the technical support team at your institution or a third-party hosting provider.
