The process of accepting articles
User registration: First, Sign up for submitting an article. The relevant option is located on the top menu.
Each journal in the system of electronic publications of the University of Guilan has a unique password and identifier.
Register for each journal in its system and create a Dashboard.
User ID and Password: To submit the article, the user ID and password are required, so keep the mail system effortful. User ID is the author's email. If you have forgotten the password, select the "Sign In" option at the top of the screen and "forget about Password to system!" click. If you do not receive a new password, write to the executive director of the journal. Also, after entering the system, you can enter the password on the personal page of the editing section.
How to load the article into the system: Click on the "manuscript submission" option at the top of the page. The manuscript is loaded in the original file and includes all the different sections of the manuscript (abstract, introduction, materials and methods, results and discussion, suggestions, conclusions, resources used and English abstract). Please be careful! figures and tables should be inserted inside the text of the manuscript. In the text of the manuscript, wherever indicated in the figure or table, the corresponding figure or table should be inserted immediately after the end of the paragraph. In the Persian and English abstracts, as well as the original filename, the authors' names and affiliations will not be included. Thanks and gratitude are not included in the preliminary review. The original file name is the English title of the manuscript.
Be careful before loading the file:
Just upload a file of the "Main manuscript text" type. Note the manuscript file, without mentioning the author's name and address.
Please upload only files with an English name. Files named Farsi will not be reviewed and will not be accepted.
The file "Additional / Additional file" will not be displayed to the referee or referees. The pledged and scanned files are uploaded as additional / extra files.
Highlights (about the importance of choosing the corresponding author):
When loading a manuscript in the author's insert section, there is an option to determine the corresponding author. The manuscript can be uploaded by any of the authors, but the author should select the author on the page for the author's profile. After sending the manuscript, if any of the authors do not have the Dashboard system, they will be given an ID and password to the email.
After submitting the manuscript, the whole process of the file will only be visible and follow-up from the corresponding author's page in the Dashboard, and other authors will not have access to it. So, be sure to pay attention when writing the corresponding author.
First review: After submission of the manuscript, first it will be submitted to the executive director for primary review. Writing a manuscript in accordance with the format available on the site, as well as a detailed study of the "author's guide" page to resolve possible issues, is the responsibility of the corresponding author, and it is impossible to point out the points made by the expert for all submitted papers. Due to the frequent observation of similar cases, due to the lack of cooperation of some authors, the manuscript remains in the initial review phase. So please be sure to carefully read the author's guide page before completing the submission and exactly do the following. Downloading one of published papers on the site can help as a template for the corresponding author, with the exception that in the submitted manuscript for review, will be deleted the name and affiliation of the authors as well as the section of gratitude and appreciation. Apart from the following, all content is the same. The manuscript will locate in an initial review in the state of (under review) after confirming the journal Expert. If approved by the editor in chief, the manuscript will be sent to Dashboard one of the specialized secretaries of the journal and then to the appointed reviewers.
After editing the manuscript (the initial editing stage) as well as inserting comments from the reviewers (reviewing the author) when loading the original file, be sure to delete the old file and reload the new file again. In the system, only one manuscript can be sent in the main file type.
The R1 suffix inserted after the interception code means the final referee's response of the first stage (the first step of the adaptation of the manuscript) and the extension of R2 means the final referee's answer to the second stage (the second stage of the manuscript adaptation).
Example: JMS-123466-10002-R1
The files outside of the system are missing application and validity. Therefore, refrain from submitting the manuscript at the initial review stage and refining the referee's response to the journal e-mail.
