[OJS 3] Where are the section policies displayed?

You can enter a section policy at the backend:

But I did not see a place at the frontend where this text is being displayed. Is this intentional? Or did I oversee it?

The background of this question is another one: can you enter section specific review guidelines?
I was thinking maybe these policies could be used for that. But this way they should be displayed somewhere. :wink:
Maybe one could create a section page in OJS similar to series pages in OMP …?

Hi @lilients,

You’re right – this is a holdover from OJS 2.x, but currently isn’t displayed anywhere in OJS 3.x.

I think it’s worth displaying this in the submission process and possibly the About areas, rather than e.g. removing it.

I’ve filed this for attention at Section policies are not displayed anywhere · Issue #2638 · pkp/pkp-lib · GitHub.
