Hi, We running OJS version 3.1.0.1 and PHP version 5.6.4. We are assisting another department on campus in manually creating an online journal issue. Everything is working fine except when we try to “Add a Contributor” in Submission and Publication Metadata. When we enter the author’s name and click save at the bottom of the page, OJS just spins. We’ve checked the following files but haven’t found a problem:
lib/pkp/templates/controllers/grid/users/author/form/authorForm.tpl.
lib/pkp/controllers/grid/users/author/form/AuthorForm.inc.php
public_html/lib/pkp/classes/submission/PKPSubmissionMetadataFormImplement
We’ve looked through our logs but haven’t found anything there that stands out. It looks like a lot of warnings. Here’s a sample from when we tried to complete the process this afternoon:

Here’s what I see when I use the inspect tool in my browser:
Any ideas as to what might be causing this issue or which files I should be looking at?
Thanks for any suggestions!
