Forum rules
This forum is meant for general questions about the usability of OJS from an everyday user's perspective: journal managers, authors, and editors are welcome to post questions here, as are librarians and other support staff. We welcome general questions about the role of OJS and how the workflow works, as well as specific function- or user-related questions.

What to do if you have general, workflow or usability questions about OJS:

1. Read the documentation. We've written documentation to cover from OJS basics to system administration and code development, and we encourage you to read it.

2. take a look at the tutorials. We will continue to add tutorials covering OJS basics as time goes on.

3. Post a question. Questions are always welcome here, but if it's a technical question you should probably post to the OJS Technical Support subforum; if you have a development question, try the OJS Development subforum.

How to change the DOI for an article

Postby pippasmart » Tue Jul 03, 2012 7:14 am

We re-launched our journal with a new name and are now managing it on our own website. We have imported archive articles from the previous site. They have a DOI (prefix/suffix) set by the previous publisher - which must stay the same. How to I change the DOI of these articles on our site - whilst assigning the new articles with our new prefix/suffix?
Thanks,
pippasmart

Hi pippasmart,
I didn't understand if you still have the ownership of the old prefix.

If so, you have to configure this prefix in OJS (setup, step 1).

After that, you have to try to configure the DOI suffix pattern to be similar to the old one. If you can do this, you only have to push on the re-assign DOIs and then export the XML file and send this file to CrossRef for updating the URLs.

If you can not make new DOIs similar to old ones with the pattern, you shoud use the DOIs with custom identifiers, then update the identifiers con the old DOIs suffixes; and then register the updated DOIs.

If you need a more direct help, you can write me a private message.

Best regards,
Andrea
