Hi, @rcgillis! I use the version 3.3.0.17. I will put the print of the plugin.
This is the plugin
This is the configuration:
I want to set the correct configuration for somebody using the URN.
Thank you for clarifying. I don’t have direct experience with assigning URNs. The most I could find was the Github page, that refers to some resources that are no longer available:: GitHub - ojsde/urnDNB: The work on this plugin will be continued at https://github.com/dainst/ojs-plugin-urnDNB (March 2017)
I understand that they are more widely used in Germany. @bozana - might you be able to assist with this? Do you know of any good resources on the use of URNs?

Thanks, @rcgillis!
I acess the github and I search for tutorial, but he is univaveble. I open a issue on the git hub. More one time, thanks!
You would first need to register somewhere (usually at the national library) to get the URN prefix – in Germany, the German National Library is responsible for that.
Then you would need to set up the plugin – to fill that plugin settings form above: to select to which object you would like to assign the URNs (e.g. Articles), to enter the URN prefix, to chose the way the URN suffix should be generated (e.g. Use default patterns), if your URNs need a check number (for German National Library you have to use the check number), the namespace where you will register the URNs and finally the resolver URL.
Once the plugin is correctly set, you will have the possibility to assign the URNs to objects you have chosen: If you are assigning the URNs to articles: when you as editor go to an article workflow page, then to the Publication
tab, you will see the Identifiers
menu item. There you will now have the possibility to assign a URN. If you are assigning the URNs to galleys, you will find the Identifier
tab when you edit a galley. If you are assigning the URNs to issues, you will find the Identifier
tab when you edit an issue.
I hope this helps. Else, please let me know if you have further questions.
Best,
Bozana
