Display DOI on abstract view of articles

[vgabler]

Hi,

Our System Administrator found a way to have the DOI display automatically above the title when viewing the abstract page of an article. Could this be included in a future release? I know it is fairly standard for scientific journals to display the DOI in this manner. His fix is pasted below:

In the directory templates/article:

*** article.tpl.orig Tue Nov 9 15:08:26 2010
--- article.tpl Tue Nov 9 15:13:32 2010
***************
*** 69,74 ****
--- 69,75 ----
<div id="articleCoverImage"><img src="{$coverPagePath|escape}{$coverPageFileName|escape}"{if $coverPageAltText != ''} alt="{$coverPageAltText|escape}"{else} alt="{translate key="article.coverPage.altText"}"{/if}{if $width} width="{$width|escape}"{/if}{if $height} height="{$height|escape}"{/if}/>
</div>
{/if}
+ {if $article->getDOI()}<div id="doi">doi:&nbsp;{$article->getDOI()|escape}</div>{/if}
{call_hook name="Templates::Article::Article::ArticleCoverImage"}
<div id="articleTitle"><h3>{$article->getLocalizedTitle()|strip_unsafe_html}</h3></div>
<div id="authorString"><em>{$article->getAuthorString()|escape}</em></div>


All best,

Hi Vanessa,

It turns out this has already been requested -- so I've rescheduled to our current development release, so it should be added in the (relatively) near future. See http://pkp.sfu.ca/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=4194. Thank for the comments!

Cheers,
James

Is this now possible? To enable display of DOI on abstract page? I can edit the article.tpl, but if that is already possible via some setting, it would be great!

Thank you, I added the line in article.tpl, and I also added a DOI resolving link to it:

Code: Select all

{if $article->getDOI()}<div id="doi">doi:&nbsp;<a href="http://dx.doi.org/{$article->getDOI()|escape}">{$article->getDOI()|escape}</a></div>{/if}

In addition, I added the following into the theme CSS, to hide the line below the DOI link:

Code: Select all

#doi a {
   text-decoration: none;
}

is this going to be added as an option for Journal Managers to implement? Our install is at 2.3.6. I updated our journal with the DOI, I reassigned all articles DOIs, and I even used the CrossRef export to submit an issue to CrossRef. But I'm not sure how to get the DOI to display in the abstract view.

Hi thebigaym,

This has not yet been added to OJS, so you will have to manually edit the code as aleski suggests.

Cheers,
James

I gather this is still not implemented? I find this quite surprising, as DOIs are very frequently used nowadays.
