OJS - Need to rename the Editor decision "Decline Submission" to "Reject Submission"

Dear Folks,

I refereed many threads regarding my topic and understand the same and would like to confirm once again before make the changes.

To JUST Rename the Editor Decision “Decline Submission” to “Reject Submission”, I have to go to locale/en_US/editor.xml and change from Decline Submission

to Reject Submission

I do not want to change anything related to email. So I think this changes is enough.

Please confirm,

Thank you,
Johnson K. Baby

Hi @asmecher

We are using OJS 2.4.8.1 version.

Thank you,

Hi @sonbabyjohn,

You’ll want to edit locale/en_US/editor.xml and change the editor.article.decision.decline locale key.

@Staff,

Please I would want to change the “Decline Submission” to “Reject Submission”

How should I go about this using OJS 3.3.0.8?

I look forward to your response.

Thank you

In OJS 3 it’s very easy because there’s a plugin to custom specific key in any OJS’s translation. It’s Custom Locale Plugin.

You have to install it, enable it, then browse the plugin page looking for submission.po.There, you can change the key editor.submission.decision.decline with your preferred terms.

Bye!

@Michevole ,
Thank you so much. It work perfectly.

Sincere appreciation.
