Template in mdpi_template is outdated

JVAQUEROM commented 3 years ago

I just wanted to report that mdpi_journal template is outdated. New mdpi.cls does not include \history{}, for example, and now it consists of three commands: \datereceived{}, \dateaccepted{} and \datepublished{}. Some other small details may have changed too, but I do not think this is a big update. I installed the last version of rticles:

> xfun::session_info('rticles')
R version 4.0.3 (2020-10-10)
Platform: x86_64-suse-linux-gnu (64-bit)
Running under: openSUSE Leap 15.2, RStudio 1.3.1073

Locale:
  LC_CTYPE=es_ES.UTF-8       LC_NUMERIC=C               LC_TIME=es_ES.UTF-8       
  LC_COLLATE=es_ES.UTF-8     LC_MONETARY=es_ES.UTF-8    LC_MESSAGES=es_ES.UTF-8   
  LC_PAPER=es_ES.UTF-8       LC_NAME=C                  LC_ADDRESS=C              
  LC_TELEPHONE=C             LC_MEASUREMENT=es_ES.UTF-8 LC_IDENTIFICATION=C

Best regards.

Thanks for the update @JVAQUEROM !

Would you like to open a PR to update this template ?

pinging @dleutnant who contributed the template initially.

Yes, I'll try to update it when I have some spare time.

I wish in the future publishers provide a Rmd template themselves...

Thank you for this awesome idea for scientific writing
