Problems with Submission Notifications

Hi
It seems that Submission Notifications some how has stopped working. Normally one can choose a secondary mail, which then receives a notification of a new submission. That function is not available anymore. Is it a function which we need to activate server wide? It does not work on any of our journals.

We did upgrade and have looked at Editorial Workflow

Application Version - e.g., OJS 3.2.1.4, LINUX, PHP 7.4.2.7,Apache/2.4.37 (Red Hat Enterprise Linux) OpenSSL/1.1.1k, PostgreSQL 12.9 on x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu, compiled by gcc (GCC) 8.5.0 20210514 (Red Hat 8.5.0-4), 64-bit

Hi @thestrup,

Is it the case that the submission notifications are not sending (e.g. are you not able to see them in the activity log for a given submission), or that emails are not being sent (and received)?

We can not see the service at all.

Hi @thestrup,

I’m not sure what you mean by “the service” - could you clarify?

Hi
We can not add any one to receive a Submission Notification - as described in the editorial workflow.
