Hi
I have OJS 3.1.1-4 installed. I want to make a custom child theme where the templates of the submission forms are changed. I tried to copy the lib/pkp/templates/submission/
folder to plugins/themes/<theme-name>/templates/submission/
and edit them there to remove some fields. I removed the last lines of the file templates/submission/submissionMetadataFormTitleFields.tpl
to remove the abstract textbox. However, this did not change the form. If I made the same changes in lib/pkp/templates/submission/submissionMetadataFormTitleFields.tpl
it works, but then the textbox is removed for all journals!
Copying lib/pkp/templates/common/userDetails.tpl
to the theme folder and changing the it there works (to change the layout of the add-contributor form)!
Why does it not work to change the submission templates, while it works to change the userDetails template? Any ideas?
