[OPS/OJS] Enable ORCID tag on Submission Acknowledgement e-mails #5792

Open alexxxmendonca opened 4 years ago

Describe the problem you would like to solve As a Server Manager, it would be helpful if authors and co-authors could start associating their ORCID iDs to the submission as soon as the submission is made. That way, during the time elapsed between the submission and the actual moderation, several authors could associate their ORCID iD to the submission.

The way the system is configured now, authors only receive a deep link to associate their ORCID iD when and if the submitting author marks the Send e-mail to request ORCID authorization from contributor option on the Add Contributor modal window. If they don't do that, the only other moment an email is sent is when the moderator is checking the submitted preprint.

Unfortunately the tag {$authorOrcidUrl} doesn't work on the Submission Acknowledgement e-mail templates.

Describe the solution you'd like I would like to be able to request ORCID iD from the Submission Acknowledgement e-mails, to save time so that when the moderator is checking the submission, hopefully a bigger number of ORCID iDs will be already associated.

Who is asking for this feature? Server Managers, Series Moderators, Journal Editors, Journal Managers

Additional information This issue was written with OPS in mind but I believe this could be helpful for journals using OJS as well.
