What to do if you have a technical problem with OJS:

1. Search the forum. You can do this from the Advanced Search Page or from our Google Custom Search, which will search the entire PKP site. If you are encountering an error, we especially recommend searching the forum for said error.

2. Check the FAQ to see if your question or error has already been resolved.

3. Post a question, but please, only after trying the above two solutions. If it's a workflow or usability question you should probably post to the OJS Editorial Support and Discussion subforum; if you have a development question, try the OJS Development subforum.

No indexing in Google Scholar

Postby polesello » Wed May 14, 2014 2:01 am

Hi all, we have some journals that are NOT indexed in Google Scholar, and they are in one only installation of OJS (version 2.3.6).
In particular:
http://popolazioneestoria.it/
http://riviste.forumeditrice.it/oltreoceano/

I checked all tecnical issues (presence of metatags in articles, robots.txt allowing crawling) but still no results. I sent also two emails to Google Scholar technical support two months ago, but they replied with a generic answer (see techical guide to indexing, verify, etc).
I thought that indexing was almost automatic, but unfortunately it is not.
Anyway, the journals are perfectly indexed in Google (not Scholar).

Any ideas on something I have still to verify?

Hi polesello,

Unfortunately I can't tell you much. OJS 2.3.6 is a little old but does have the required Google Scholar tags, so it should be picked up by Google Scholar. If not, only Google can tell you why.
