Open Journal Systems Help

User Home

Once a user has logged in, a User Home link appears in the top navigation bar. Clicking this link will display different information depending on whether the user is browsing a specific journal or the site as a whole.

Main Site-Level User Home Information

If the user is logged in and is browsing the main site, the following information is displayed:

My Journals. The user will find a list of all journals for which they have registered, along with links to all available roles (Author, Editor, etc.) on a per-journal basis. If the user is also the Site Administrator, there will also be links to site-wide administration pages.

My Account. The user will find links to perform account modifications, including registering with other journals; editing the user's profile; changing the user's password; and logging out.

Journal-Level User Home Information

If the user is logged in and is browsing a specific journal, only information particular to that journal is displayed. Additionally, under My Account the link to register with other journals is replaced with a link to "Show My Journals" (taking the user back to the Main Site User Home page).
