This is a custom theme for the latest OJS 3.1.2.4 release.
It is based on :
- The community-built theme for OJS 3+ that implements Bootstrap 3 components. https://github.com/NateWr/bootstrap3 Version 3.2.0 of this plugin which is compatible with a 3.1.2.4 OJS instance.
- The Old Gregg Theme for OJS 3 that uses JATS Parser Plugin for automatic rendering of articles in JATS XML format and displaying them on article landing page. https://github.com/Vitaliy-1/oldGregg
The opscidia-custom-theme is licensed under GPLv3 (as both bootstrap3 and oldGregg are).
- Download the latest release.
- Unpack the .zip file and move the
opscidia-custom-themedirectory to your OJS installation at/plugins/themes/opscidia-custom-theme. - Make sure that the user www-data is the owner of the
opscidia-custom-themeand all of it's sub-content. You can do this by executing the recursive Linux shell command :
sudo chown -R www-data:www-data opscidia-custom-theme
or, if you are already inside the opscidia-custom-theme folder :
