OMP Quick Submit Plugin unable to add Contributor

1amrahulranjan · June 18, 2024, 11:37am

I am using OMP 3.4.0.5 and I am using OMP Quick Submit Plugin from here GitHub - ajnyga/quickSubmit at omp but when I use the plugin and go to add contributor, I get this error.

When I checked the error log, I found this:

Authorform Class is missing in 3.4.0.5, it was added back in 3.4.0.7, see: [OMP 3.4.0] Add AuthorForm class · Issue #9971 · pkp/pkp-lib · GitHub

So if you update to 3.4.0.7, it should work.

Thank you for your reply. It indeed got fixed when I updated to OMP 3.4.0.9. But then I got a new error.

So, I am using OMP 3.4.0.9 version and I have downloaded and tried both the master branch as well as the OMP branch from this link GitHub - ajnyga/quickSubmit at omp. The plugin works fine but it gives an error 500 whenevr I click the cancel button (in case I need to cancel the submission).

Upon checking the error log, it says:

[10-Jul-2025 07:35:50 America/New_York] PHP Fatal error: Uncaught Exception: Unrecognized DAO SubmissionDAO! in /home4/mylibvq4/public_html/inkbound.org/lib/pkp/classes/db/DAORegistry.php:77

So, when I click on cancel, it shows 500 error page and in the background it adds an incomplete submission to “My Queue” in Submission. Every time I refresh the error 500 page, it keeps adding those many number of incomplete submissions in My Queue.

Is there a way to fix this please?

SubmissionDao is was replaced by the Repo-System. Try this maybe:

/**
 * Cancel submit.
 */
function cancel()
{
	$submissionDao = Repo::submission();
	$submission = $submissionDao->get((int) $this->getData('submissionId'));
	if ($this->_submission->getData('contextId') != $this->_context->getId()) {
		throw new \Exception('Submission not in context!');
	}

	if ($submission) {
		$submissionDao->delete($submission);
	}
}

Thanks a ton. Couldn’t be more happy. Is there a way I can ping you in case I need any help in future relating to OMP or OJS? You know help is rare in these matters.
