After we had upgraded to 3.1.2 our authors began receiving those ‘Orcid Collect Author Id’ letters. The first problem is there seems to be no way to disable them. The appropriate option in the ORCID plugin has always been disabled:
Also there is no option to disable the template itself (the checkbox is grayed out):
The second problem is the link to the ORCID site in the template seems to be broken:
I have the same problem, I think OJS 3.1.2.-1 sends this Orcid-Mails after an editor clicks “Send To Review”.
As a temporary solution, I commented this out in the function handleEditorAction() in OrcidProfilePlugin.inc.php. But it would be nice to have an option to switch it off.
It doesn’t look like the option “sendMailToAuthorOnPublication” was used anywhere. I’ve opened an issue and PR for this. Can either of you test the change?
The fix for this depends on upgrading the orcidProfile plugin. Unfortunately, there doesn’t appear to be a package for 3.1.2 built in the GitHub releases which addresses this fix.
The build 1.1.2-0 for 3.2 will,
Or a manual install from stable-3_1_2 will fix it, if you are handy with git.
So will the manual install from stable-3_1_2 fix the issue for OJS 3.1.2.4? Otherwise we would have to upgrade our journal to OJS 3.2 to support the ORCID profile plugin build 1.1.2-0.
