[OJS 3.4.0.5][ORCiD plugin 1.3.4.8] is it possible to retroactively accredit reviewers?

[KayWP]

Describe the issue or problem
Based on the description of the ORCID plugin, found here, you can acknowledge reviewers on their ORCID profile if you have a member account.

Do I understand correctly that the accreditation is triggered by sending the ‘thank you’ email to the reviewer? And if so, is it possible to retro-actively accredit a reviewer you have already ‘thanked’ in this way before you met the requirements (having the ORCID plugin and a membership account)?

What application are you using?
OJS 3.4.0.5
ORCiD plugin 1.3.4.8

Hi @KayWP,

I spoke to some of our team members about this and this functionality (to retroactively accredit a reviewer) does not currently exist in 3.4, but it will in 3.5 (due for release very soon) - so that capability will be available.
