Export / Import

[rramos]

Greetings.
How can export items from one platform to another, both with the same version, 2.3.8?

I've checked the forum and can not find solution.

With the plugins that are not let me export siquiente shows me the error:
"Missing article title to the number" Test issues "under" Articles. "Please ensure that the XML document conforms to the appropriate DTD."

How can the platform be unable to create a valid document for the importation of articles?
I followed the format is in plugins / importexport / native / sample.xml

Thanks

Hi Rramos,

if you are importing "Test issues", your data is probably not confidential, right? Could you attach the XML file that was causing those problems here in this forum?

Hi!
This is the xml of one of the articles I want to export.
It may be the browser?, I use firefox

Code: Select all

<article>
<title locale="en_US">Language Quarks</title>
<abstract locale="en_US">
This paper very briefly summarizes the results of recent research into the nature of grammatical features and relations (Sigurðsson 2004 et seq.). While morphology operates with discrete (albeit abstract) features and feature values, syntax builds and operates on relations. Many, perhaps all syntactic relations involve silent active heads, language quarks. Quarks cannot be materialized or absolutely located in linguistic ‘space’, and hence there can be no one-to-one correlations between them and ‘concrete material’, such as discrete morphological features. Minimalist syntax is a partly successful theory of I-language, but a plausible theory of language externalization remains to be developed.

Hi Rramos,

is Spanish the default language of your journal? I think the import module of OJS is complaining, that your XML file does not provide a title in the default language of your journal. It only contains an element with an English title:

Code: Select all

<title locale="en_US">Language Quarks</title>

Note that you can import several titles per article, like

Code: Select all

<title locale="en_US">Language Quarks</title>
<title locale="es_RA">Los cuarkes de la lengua</title>

(Sorry for the example, I don't speak Spanish)

However, every language version that you import in your XML file must correspond with the language settings of your journal.
Also note that there is another error in your file: The DTD says that the <supplementary_file> element *must* have a <title> child element, like this:

Code: Select all

<supplemental_file type="other">
     <title>Test title</title>
     .....
</supplemental_file>

I hope those observations will lead to your successful importing of your articles!

Best wishes,
Kai Weber
