Greetings,
I’m trying to publish the new number of one of our journals but I keep receiving the error “You don’t currently have access to that stage of the workflow”, I using the admin account and had no problem publishing in other journals. The roles are identical to the other journals.
Best regards,
José Nobre
Hi @josenobre,
Do you have the editor and/or journal manager roles available to you as well?
Can you please tell us what version of OJS you’re using (e.g. 3.3.0-13)? In the future, please include this in your posts, as it is important for others assisting with troubleshooting

Hi @rcgillis
I’m using OJS 3.3.0.14 and have all roles and supposedly all permissions.

Best regards,

Hi @josenobre,
Okay - thanks for clarifying. Is it that you are trying to publish a particular issue, or a specific article (I couldn’t tell from your initial post)? You may want to have a look at these posts here: Publishing Error - Need Help - #6 by mazen.abbas and Cannot schedule for publication, "You don't currently have access to that stage of the workflow.", where they have encountered this issue and have found a resolution.

I also had this issue, there seems to be an ip check that doesn’t allow one login.
- Login into the cpanel
- Within your website directory
- Locate ‘config.inc.php’
- Edit this file, locate ‘session_check_ip’; this was on line 256 or just search for it
- Change this to ‘Off’
