Hi Dinesh,

The process for deleting submissions and users is the same as for OJS; see http://pkp.sfu.ca/support/forum/viewtopic.php?p=5109#5109 for information on deleting users and http://pkp.sfu.ca/support/forum/viewtopic.php?p=6355#6355 for information on deleting papers.

hi,

The merge users link was not working. Then I found that the corresponding function in pages/manager/PeopleHandler.inc.php was commented. is there any specific reason to this?

Also, when I am in the Merge users window (after uncommenting the function), the links for the roles (authors etc) are not working. I am getting the following error message:


Notice: Undefined variable: schedConf in /srv/www/pages/manager/PeopleHandler.inc.php on line 540

Fatal error: Call to a member function getSchedConfId() on a non-object in /srv/www/pages/manager/PeopleHandler.inc.php on line 540.

is this any serious problem?

the corresponding line is:

Code: Select all

$users = &$roleDao->getUsersByRoleId($roleId, $conference->getConferenceId(), $schedConf->getSchedConfId(), $searchType, $search, $searchMatch, $rangeInfo);

Finally, when i select a user and click on the "merge user" link, the following error is displayed above the header.


Warning: Missing argument 3 for Validation::canAdminister(), called in /srv/www/pages/manager/PeopleHandler.inc.php on line 396 and defined in /srv/www/classes/security/Validation.inc.php on line 334

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /srv/www/classes/security/Validation.inc.php:334) in /srv/www/classes/template/TemplateManager.inc.php on line 250
