We are in the process of upgrading from 2.4.8-2 to 3.1.0-1. Our code is ojs 3.1.0-1, php 5.6.34, apache 2.4.25, postgres 9.6.7. Now we have a test installation, and see the following problem.
Automated reminders are being sent to reviewers even for archived articles years old. Once an article is archived, no automated reminders should be sent to reviewers no matter what incomplete reviewer actions it has. At least three such reminders were sent within hours of going live (and those were just the reviewers who complained).
As one example, searching as editor for one submission in the “Archived Submissions” section shows it as “Declined” but nevertheless “A review is overdue” appears beneath it. This is wrong: an archived submission does not have overdue reviews. We have more than 6400 archived submissions so we can’t look at them individually.
In our case, it was presumably the Acron plugin that sent the reminders, since we don’t have a cron job yet. Now the plugin is turned off and we don’t know how to proceed.
Thanks, Brendan.
