+
+Site administration is limited to users with full system permissions. Administration tasks are infrequent and may be carried out by a journal manager, senior editor, or a dedicated site administrator. For more detailed information, see [Learning OJS: Site Administration](https://docs.pkp.sfu.ca/learning-ojs/en/site-administration).
+
+## <a name="hosted-journals"></a>Hosted Journals
+
+Add, edit or remove journals hosted on this installation. There will only be one journal in most cases, but you can host multiple journals with a single installation.
+
+Administrators, journal managers or senior editors can access a **Settings Wizard** for each hosted journal, which will walk you through the basic journal setup steps. These include setting up the masthead, contact details, site appearance, submission parameters, indexing details, and users.
+
+## <a name="admin-functions"></a>Administrative Functions
+
+Several administrative functions are available in the site administration area. These should be used with caution by technical administrators. Improper use could lead to unexpected results.

+# Editorial Workflow
+
+The editorial workflow allows you to usher a submission from initial evaluation through peer review, copyediting, and production, where the item is prepared for publication.
+
+Each section of the workflow provides you with the information, tools, and discussion tools that you will need to complete the tasks for that stage. When your ready, you'll be presented with [editorial actions](editorial-workflow#editorial-actions) you can take that are appropriate to each stage. For more information, see [Learning OJS 3: Editorial Workflow](https://docs.pkp.sfu.ca/learning-ojs/en/editorial-workflow).

+# Copyediting
+
+1. [Orientation](copyediting#orientation)
+2. [Editorial Actions](copyediting#editorial-actions)
+
+During the Copyediting stage, the editor assigns a copyeditor to edit the submission files.
+
+The copyeditor, who is often a professional, will align the writing style with your editorial guidelines, improve the quality and clarity of the writing, fix any grammar, and get the submission ready for conversion to a [publication format](production).
+
+This is the last stage before you generate publication-ready formats such as PDFs and ePubs. If you do not have the resources to hire a professional copyeditor, use this stage to take a close look at the material, check any facts, correct any errors, and communicate with the author to clarify any points of confusion.
+
+Add copyeditors from the [participants panel](../editorial-workflow#participants).
+For more detailed information, see [Learning OJS 3: Copyediting](https://docs.pkp.sfu.ca/learning-ojs/en/editorial-workflow#copyediting).
+
+## <a name="orientation"></a>Orientation
+
+The Copyediting stage provides three panels for managing the copyediting process.
+
+### <a name="draft-files"></a>Draft Files
+
+All files selected by the editor for copyediting. These are typically files that have been revised as a result of the review process.
+
+### <a name="copyediting-discussions"></a>Copyediting Discussions
+
+Editors and copyeditors can use this panel to initiate discussions with the author(s) or communicate among themselves. This can be used to clarify points of confusion, request further information from the author, or request approval for any changes.
+
+### <a name="copyedited"></a>Copyedited
+
+Copyeditors can upload final edited files to this panel. These should be completed files that are ready to be [sent to production](copyediting#editorial-actions).
+
+*Editors can upload files here, too.*
+
+### <a name="participants"></a>Participants
+
+Editors can add copyeditors from this panel. [Learn more](../editorial-workflow#participants).
+
+## <a name="editorial-actions"></a>Editorial Actions
+
+There's only one editorial decision available to editors at this stage. If you decide to decline a submission at this late stage, you can do so by going back to a previous stage.
+
+### <a name="production"></a>Send to Production
+
+The editor can send the submission to the [Production stage](production) when final copyedited files are ready. Any files in the [Copyedited](copyediting#copyedited) panel will automatically be forwarded unless the editor chooses not to send them.

+During the Production stage, the editor assigns production assistants who will help prepare the final publication files, known as galleys. For more detailed information, see [Learning OJS 3: Production](https://docs.pkp.sfu.ca/learning-ojs/en/editorial-workflow#production).
+
+## <a name="orientation"></a>Orientation

+The Production stage provides two panels to create files ready for publication.

+### <a name="production-ready"></a>Production Ready Files

+All files selected by the editor for production will appear here. These typically include files that have been prepared during the [Copyediting stage](copyediting). Production assistants will use these files to generate the final publication formats.
+
+### <a name="production-discussions"></a>Production Discussions
+
+Editors and production assistants can use this panel to initiate conversations if there are any details that need to be clarified before the final publication files can be created.
+
+### <a name="participants"></a>Participants
+
+Editors can add production assistants or layout editors from this panel. [Learn more](../editorial-workflow#participants).
+
+# <a name="publish"></a>Publishing the Submission
+
+Editors and production assistants can create galley files for publication. These typically represent separate publication formats, such as PDF and HTML.
+
+Once the production-ready files have been transformed into a galley file ready for publication, Editors can move from the Workflow panel to the Publication tab by using the Schedule for Publication button. The galley file will then be uploaded in the Publication tab.

+# Publication
+
+From the Publication Tab, Editors can review and edit the metadata, upload the galley copy, set or make changes to the permissions, and assign the article to an issue.
+
+## Create New Version
+
+Creating a new version opens a new set of fields for the article metadata and galley files that is an exact copy of the published content.
+
+You can edit and publish the updated content without changing the existing published content. All versions will be retained and are accessible in the public view of the article and from this Publication tab.
+
+## Unpublish Article
+
+Unpublishing the article will remove it from its scheduled issue and the public view.

+# Review Stages
+
+1. [Orientation](review#orientation)
+1. [Editorial Actions](review#editorial-actions)
+
+During the Review stage, the editor assigns reviewers to the submission.
+
+Once the reviewers have submitted their reviews and recommendations, the editor is responsible for making an editorial decision, which will determine whether the submission is ready for the Copyediting stage or requires further revisions.
+
+By default, the review stages begin in *Round 1* of reviews. Further rounds may be initiated if the editor requests major changes that must go through another round of review. For more detailed information, see [Learning OJS 3: Review](https://docs.pkp.sfu.ca/learning-ojs/en/editorial-workflow#review).
+
+## <a name="orientation"></a>Orientation
+
+Each review round consists of sections for managing review files and reviewers, along with the discussions and participants section that appear on every stage.
+
+### <a name="review-files"></a>Review Files
+All the files selected by the editor for review. These files will be visible to reviewers unless restricted when assigning the reviewer.
+
+### <a name="reviewers"></a>Reviewers
+Editors can add reviewers, assign due dates, and monitor the status and recommendations of the reviews. When a review has been completed, the editor can view and confirm the review to acknowledge that they've read it.
+
+### <a name="revisions"></a>Revisions
+Revised files uploaded by the author. During the review process, the editor may request revisions from the author. Once uploaded, they appear here and will be available to send to the Copyediting stage once they've passed review.
+
+### <a name="discussions"></a>Review Discussions
+Editors and sub-editors can initiate private conversations among themselves or with reviewers or authors. Authors cannot initiate discussions or communicate directly with reviewers.
+
+The review discussions are not particular to any one round and will carry over to subsequent rounds if a new review round is initiated.
+
+### <a name="participants"></a>Participants
+Editors and sub-editors can add additional users to this stage to assist them in managing the review process. This is commonly used by an editor who wants a sub-editor to handle the day-to-day communications with reviewers. [Learn more](../editorial-workflow#participants).
+
+## <a name="editorial-actions"></a>Editorial Actions
+The editor can make one of several editorial actions during each round of the review stage. Each of these decisions automatically notifies the author by email.
+
+### <a name="request-revisions"></a>Request Revisions
+The editor can request revisions from the author without opening a new review round. This is common when minor revisions are required which the editor can approve without resubmitting for  review.
+
+### <a name="new-review"></a>Resubmit for Review
+The editor can request revisions from the author that will need to go through another round of review. Once revisions are received, a new review round will need to be created at the top of the review stage.
+
+### <a name="copyediting"></a>Send to Copyediting
+The editor can initiate the [Copyediting stage](copyediting) once it has passed the required review stage.
+
+### <a name="decline"></a>Decline Submission
+The editor can decline the submission if it does not pass review. The submission will be removed from the editorial workflow and sent to the Archives.

+
+The "Public URL Identifier" is a text slug which is used in the URL for this issue. By default, issues are given a URL based on their numeric ID. But you may want to give them human-readable names, like "50th-anniversary-issue", which creates prettier URLs.

+
+1. [Submission](workflow-settings#submission)
+1. [Review](workflow-settings#review)
+1. [Publisher Library](workflow-settings#publisher)
+1. [Emails](workflow-settings#emails)
+
+Configure all aspects of the [Editorial Workflow](../editorial-workflow), including file management, submission guidelines and requirements, peer review deadlines and guidelines, email notifications, and much more. See [Learning OJS 3 Workflow Settings](https://docs.pkp.sfu.ca/learning-ojs/en/settings-workflow) for detailed instructions.
+
+## <a name="submission"></a>Submission
+The Submission tab determines what information authors provide or agree to when they make a submission.
+
+### Disable Submissions
+If you want to disable submissions for the whole journal you can check the box here. Or to disable submissions in a specific section, click the **Journal Sections** link. 
+
+### Metadata
+If you Enable a metadata field it will be available for each submission. Checking **Submission Form** will allow authors to add it when they make a submission. Otherwise only an editor will be able to add it.
+
+### Components
+Components are types of files that can be included with a submission.  You can add new components or edit or delete the default components. Components can be configured as supplementary or dependent, which determines how or whether they are published.
+
+### Checklist
+Provide authors with a checklist of tasks they should complete before completing their submission. This is a good place to indicate requirements for referencing, font size, line spacing, document format, and more.
+
+### Author Guidelines
+Author Guidelines will be shown to authors when they make a submission.
+
+## <a name="review"></a>Review
+Set all of your review policies and procedures, including deadlines, notifications, reviewer guidelines, and more.
+
+### Setup
+Choose the review mode that should be used by default. The mode can be changed on a per-submission and per-review basis by an editor.
+
+If you **Enable one-click reviewer access** the email invitation to reviewers will contain a special URL that takes invited reviewers directly to the Review page for the submission without requiring them to log in. For security reasons, with this option, editors are not able to modify email addresses or add CCs or BCCs prior to sending invitations to reviewers.
+
+### Reviewer Guidance
+Provide reviewers with criteria for judging a submission's suitability for publication in the journal, which may include instructions for preparing an effective and helpful review. Reviewers will have an opportunity to provide comments intended for the author and editor, as well as separate comments only for the editor.
+
+### Review Forms
+If you would like to request specific information from reviewers, you can build forms here. An editor will be able to select a form when assigning a reviewer, and the reviewer will be asked to complete that form when they are submitting their review.
+
+## <a name="publisher"></a>Publisher Library
+The Publisher Library provides a file repository for storing and quickly sharing common files, such as writing guidelines, author contracts and release forms, and marketing materials.
+
+Items that are stored in the Publisher Library can be quickly retrieved and added into a [Submission Library](../editorial-workflow#submission-library) to be shared with authors or assistants.
+
+## <a name="emails"></a>Emails
+OJS sends a number of emails during various stages of the [Editorial Workflow](../editorial-workflow) as well as other actions such as registration and submission acknowledgement. The settings in this section allow you to edit the signature attached to each email as well as change the default messages sent for each type of email.
+
+You can view a description of each email and edit the email by clicking the dropdown arrow on the right.
+
+Click **Filters** to filter templates by sender, recipient, workflow stage, and whether the template is enabled.

+Manage your journal's users, assign them to roles, and create or edit existing roles. For more detailed information, see [Learning OJS 3: Users and Roles](https://docs.pkp.sfu.ca/learning-ojs/en/users-and-roles).
+
+## <a name="users"></a> Users
+
+Journal Managers and Administrators can view a list of all users in the journal. You can add users, disable a user, send them email, edit their profile, or delete them completely.
+
+The easiest way to find a user is to use the search button, which will allow you to search by name or role.
+
+*To find a list of all authors, use the Search feature, leave the search field empty and select Author from the dropdown menu. Then click the Search button.*
+
+## <a name="roles"></a> Roles
+
+User roles govern who can access what in the editorial workflow.
+
+A flexible user role system is provided so that you can tailor the roles to your needs. On the Roles tab, you'll see a list of default roles created by the system.
+
+There are many roles, and most journals won't need all of them. Feel free to delete roles you won't use in your workflow.
+
+You can edit or remove existing roles or add new roles. All roles are given one of a few permission levels which allow them to perform various actions in the system:
+
+- *Authors* can make new submissions.
+- *Reviewers* appear when you're assigning reviews in the [Editorial Workflow](editorial-workflow) and have access to that stage when they're assigned.
+- *Readers*, like all other user types, can access the reader-facing website. All users have this capability.
+- *Journal Managers* have access to the entire [Editorial Workflow](editorial-workflow), as well as most of the settings.
+- *Series Editors* and *Journal Assistants* can access only those parts of the [Editorial Workflow](editorial-workflow) assigned to their role (see below).
+
+In addition to the permission levels, you can restrict some roles to particular stages of the [Editorial Workflow](editorial-workflow). This is useful for professional assistants such as copy editors or layout managers who may assist during one or two stages of the workflow.
+
+## <a name="notify"></a> Notify
+
+If an Administrator has enabled "Bulk Emails" under [Site Settings](https://docs.pkp.sfu.ca/learning-ojs/en/site-administration#site-settings), you will see a Notify tab. You can use this tab to [email all users in a role](https://docs.pkp.sfu.ca/learning-ojs/en/users-and-roles#email-users). 
+
+## <a name="site-access"></a> Site Access Options
+
+Under the Site Access tab, you can turn off public user registration or event limit access to the reader-facing site to registered users.
