<p>Thanks for the reply, but could you also answer the questions I previously posted?</p><blockquote><p>"<strong>Feature Requests:</strong></p><p>1. Assign a supervisor per category or per 'call'</p><p>2. Allow to add attachments, it's not common to submit abstract through text (abstracts sometimes, usually full papers and thus files)</p><p>3. Allow to implement review process (rejected, accepted with major reviews, accepted with minor reviews, accepted)</p><p>4. Allow to force automatic email notification or supervisor controlled notification</p><p>5. Allow to lock submission for registered user untill after review (cf. 'under review')"</p><p> </p></blockquote> |

As said before, I get the error. Anyway, what about the other features? Are they planned to be implemented? |

<blockquote><strong>"Well, the first thing I must say that you lack patience if you have submitted the negative review already. Or if this is your way to make us come back to you ASAP!!"</strong></blockquote><p><strong>First</strong>: Please read my post carefully where I state:</p><blockquote><p>"cause I almost submitted a negative review"</p></blockquote><p> Meaning: I did NOT post a negative review, but came to the site first and posted my comment. There was not way of doing otherwise, since there is no documentation nor a tutorial on how to build a review process. In other words: how else should I have gone about it. </p><p><strong>Second</strong>: I really do not appreciate the '!!' in your post.</p><p><strong>Third</strong>: I don't want this to become ad hominem, so I consider the above quote as closed and move on. </p><blockquote><p>"<span class="listing-desc"><strong>Create and Manage users through the default Joomla User Manager."</strong></span></p></blockquote><p>Clarifies alot and must have missed that. I would have thought that such control would be within the extension. I would prefer it to as well. In that way you could create different 'calls' and assign a supervisor 'per call' and not an overall supervisor supervising every single abstract submission. </p><blockquote><p>"<span class="listing-desc"><strong>Supervisor has a control panel in-built in the component which you can create through creating a link from the menu manager"</strong></span></p></blockquote><p>Tried it and didn't get it to work. I succesfully submitted a abstract with a registered user. Made one user supervisor, yet going to Cpanel did not do anything. Tried to assign the supervisor to 'scientific committee' and nothing appeared either. I created some scientific committees users, and nothing. Error I got: No Abstract received yet. </p><p>There is an abstract though, so I must be missing something.</p><blockquote><p>"Super admin obviously has all the access!"</p></blockquote><p>I can obviously access back-end, yet again in front-end nothing appears, with same error. </p><hr width="100%" size="2" /><p><strong> Feature Requests:</strong></p><p>1. Assign a supervisor per category or per 'call'</p><p>2. Allow to add attachments, it's not common to submit abstract through text (abstracts sometimes, usually full papers and thus files)</p><p>3. Allow to implement review process (rejected, accepted with major reviews, accepted with minor reviews, accepted)</p><p>4. Allow to force automatic email notification or supervisor controlled notification</p><p>5. Allow to lock submission for registered user untill after review (cf. 'under review')</p><p> </p><p>All these features stem from mature review management systems such as '<a href="myreview.lri.fr">MyReview</a>',<a href="http://pkp.sfu.ca/?q=ojs"> Open Journal Systems,</a> <a href="http://drupal.org/project/ejournal">E-journal</a> and <a href="http://www.conftool.net">ConfTool</a>. Not sure whether that is what you're aiming for. If not, let me know so that I don't expect (and request features) or invest time in the extension when that kind of apps is not the goal. If it is, I'm willing to help wherever I can. </p> |
