hello
i search about the difference between submission_id and article_id and this confused me more unfortunately for example in this link i see no difference : Include article-id and reviewer-id in emails? - how? - PKP Support
or in code: “$this->authorDao->deleteAuthorsByArticle($articleId);” and “function deleteAuthorsByArticle($submissionId)” means they are the same
please help me.
thx
Hi @mahsa_idasa,
submission_id
and article_id
are the same. We use both because OJS makes use of a shared library that’s also shared by other applications that aren’t specific to articles. (For example, OMP uses submission_id
and monograph_id
.)
We’re gradually standardizing on submission_id
.

thank you for your answer.
actually i have another problem i need to know in DataObject() , what is assocId and what id is?
i mean can i replace articleId variable with assocId and submissionId with id?
because i don’t have that fields here.
Hi @mahsa_idasa,
assoc_id
and assoc_type
are used sometimes as a mechanism to allow one entity to refer to another entity that may be one of several types. The assoc_type
will be one of the ASSOC_TYPE_
… constants defined in PHP, and the ID will be numeric.
This isn’t a feature that can be used indiscriminately. If you describe what you want to do I could perhaps be more specific.
