Hello,
When I search for “iScientist journal McMaster” on google and yahoo I get the following: “The iScientist - McMaster Undergraduate Journal of Law and Politics”.
However, this journal is not associated with McMaster Undergraduate Journal of Law and Politics, but with
McMaster’s Undergraduate Interdisciplinary Science Journal. I get the same error from both yahoo and google, but I cannot find anything in the journal settings to link it to McMaster Undergraduate Journal of Law and Politics, which is another journal hosted by us.

Here is a screenshot of the page source from the iScientist

Does anyone know how to fix this?

Thanks

Did you check the value from Settings > Distribution > Indexing
If you have multiple locales in use, remember to click on the description field to see what is stored in other locales.

edit: sorry, my bad. It seems that your OJS Site is named “McMaster Undergraduate Journal of Law and Politics”. Check the Site level settings.

Thank you.
Yes, I did check the Settings > Distribution > Indexing. See attached.

How can you tell the site is named “McMaster Undergraduate Journal of Law and Politics”? I checked the site settings and the site name is “Student Journals @ McMaster University”.
