Hi there,
We are running an multi journal installation OJS ver. 3.1.0.0 and from 2017 to 2019 we had only one journal running and no problems with user registration.
This month we setup other two journals and now, all of them is having the same problem when registering news users.
- When a user register in the journal registration page, the system does not show any message saying if the register was sucessful or not.
- Despite the absence of a message confirming the registration the user is registred in the OJS, but not in the journal. It is needed for the editor to search for “users without role in this journal” and add a role, otherwise the user can’t log in and submit articles.
- I tried myself to create a new author register, but, even if I click on the option to be author, it does not register under the journal, just the overall database (as describe in item 2).
- Under the role management page, I have even excluded the role “author” from the journal and created it again, but the problem continues.
I am using in all journals the default theme as also in the landing page of OJS and the only customization was to activate and configuration for use some of the plugins of the system.
I do not even know how to investigate further the problem.
