Hi @shamae_507

This is not possible per default, you would have to change the code…

Best,

Hi @shamae_507

You will have to change this template: ojs/index.tpl at ojs-stable-2_4_5 · pkp/ojs · GitHub
and eventually also this function in the page handler (e.g. to provide additional information from the DB to the template): ojs/AuthorHandler.inc.php at ojs-stable-2_4_5 · pkp/ojs · GitHub.

Best,
Bozana

Hi @bozana, My boss wants the new submissions to be the starting page. But I don’t know how will I do it. Can you help me or teach me on how will change the template? If its okay with you, coz I’m having trouble understanding the codes.

Thank you.
