How can I enable or add them?

Hi @Dr_Junaid_Khan,

By default. OJS includes a number of limited fields as part of the author profile. It is not possible to customize these fields without modifying the application’s code and underlying database structure or potentially writing a custom plugin. I would not recommend not making such modifications unless you are skilled in making such modifications and familiar with the codebase and how to modify it. If you are interested in learning more about this, please see our technical documentation: https://docs.pkp.sfu.ca/dev/

But, please note that detailed explanations of how to make such changes are likely outside the scope of what we can assist with here in the forum.

I should note that the education information, contact information, and designations can be part of an ORCID record (although it does not display in OJS, and it is dependent on the author editing such information), so you may wish to avoid duplication that can be stored as part of an ORCID record.

As for having such information appear on the final version automatically, that too would take some significant customization.
