[OJS]: Option for Journal Homepage Setup Creates Loop about pkp-lib HOT 7 CLOSED

John, what version of OJS are you seeing this in? (Alternately, post a link and I'll find out.)

from pkp-lib.

It's OJS 2.4.3.0 installed at http://ojs.stanford.edu/ojs/index.php/intersect. Juan has maintained it. (I realized I should have recorded this; it's been such a while since I filed, and first go on github.)

John, I think there are some custom modifications that are preventing that installation from operating as it should. For example, I'm guessing someone has put a delay in place? See the glacial pace of this page in particular: http://ojs.stanford.edu/ojs/index.php/intersect/issue/view/35/showToc

If someone is tinkering with that installation, I'd suggest starting by reviewing all modifications to make sure nothing there is the culprit. (For example, they could try configuring a fresh copy of the code using the database from the production installation and see if the same problems are present there.)

I suspect the redirect that's jumping from an article request back ot the ToC is probably this one:
https://github.com/pkp/ojs/blob/ojs-2_4_3-0/pages/article/ArticleHandler.inc.php#L528

from pkp-lib.

Juan actually did the install on this, and the glacial pace is attributed to Stanford burying us deep within their so-called cloud (aka pit). However, just heard: it turns out the editors had a problem in scheduling the articles to an issue. It is resolved now and all is working. Will keep at eye on on it to see if there's further issues.

OK, sounds good.

Dear willinsky,
I have visit your website http://ojs.stanford.edu/ojs/index.php/intersect and realized that the photo that you are added to the home page is really big in size.
This photo
http://ojs.stanford.edu/ojs/index.php/intersect/issue/view/67
is 2.43 MB that is too much for a website. to load your website very quick you should decrease the size of this photo.

@biosystematic, this issue isn't related to your post, and that image size is a feature of the specific journal you're accessing, not the overarching software it uses. I would suggest contacting someone involved with the journal (see http://ojs.stanford.edu/ojs/index.php/intersect/about/contact).
