- Steps you took leading up to the issue - it happened after upgrade
- What you tried to resolve the issue - Not sure what to do
- Screenshots attached.
Two of our journals have let us know that a bunch of old and previously declined articles were added into the “unassigned new submissions” section after the upgrade. These articles were declined without having gone to review, and we will be able to tell which ones they are because the dates are several years old. We are wondering if it might be a database issue, and how this can be resolved even if we have to resolve it manually?
Thank you for your support.

Hello @NateWr !
I am really sorry to get back to you so late, our OJS admin just got to it yesterday. Your feedback in this thread was really helpful and my OJS admin was able to address the issue manually (“re-decline each submission”) from the front end of OJS. That also means I did not have to change the status in database from the backend.
We could modify the submission’s status
in the database but our OJS admin chose to correct it from the front end.
I would like to say thank you for your time. We are very grateful to PKP support!
Best regards,
Ps: since you closed the ticket I do not have a way to response to you but to modify my question so to let you know.
