We’ve had a request to integrate OJS via WP plugin. This is the last documentation I’ve seen
http://hybridpublishing.org/2014/03/open-journal-system-ojs-integration-in-wordpress-via-plugin/#more-2364
but it is rather dated and doesn’t seem to have worked for a lot of people and doesn’t seem supported.
Has anyone successfully implemented this? We are running OJS 2.4.5.
Thank you.
Hi @mconrad,
I am not sure who did that documentation, but the first step is wrong. The REST plugin that Matt Crider developed for OJS can be found here: GitHub - mcrider/rest: A gateway plugin for Open Journal Systems that allows external applications to make HTTP requests for information about a journal, returning JSON-formatted data.
The first step is linking to a wordpress theme plugin, which will not work in OJS.
I would suggest that you first install the REST plugin in OJS, make sure it’s working and then trying to build your wordpress theme.
The REST plugin is old, but at a glance I did not see any problem with it. Try installing that and let us know if any error is happening, and I can try to help fixing it.
Cheers,
Bruno
