The article has been published online for two months. Does anyone know when it will be indexed by the core collection of Web of Science?

METRA 2023-08-04

Do any of my friends have proof as well, but without a link to payment? Let's gather here and share your experiences, okay?

Googleyyy 2023-08-04

Excuse me, how many reviewers does this journal need in total? I see that it requires a total of 15 reviewers, with four reviewers accepting the review request and two already providing feedback. Do we have to wait for all four to provide feedback?

Does this journal require payment for page charges? The article has been published for over a month, and I have received two payment requests from Elsevier, but I haven't received the payment link at that time. Is it necessary to make the payment?

Reply from Wiley: Answer #3: If you choose not to pay the Article Processing Charge (APC), it will not impact other scholars' ability to access and cite your article. However, our credit controller will pursue you for payment and send a reminder regarding the outstanding payment for your article.

Yes, only the corresponding author can receive the proofreading email. The first author will also receive the email with the link for online publication.

王子的爸爸 2023-07-22

lanlianhua, hello, can you add me on WeChat (15313228089) when you have time? I would like to see the content of the link, thank you.

lanlianhua 2023-07-22

I also received the link to pay the layout fee, but it seems that I need to have a Visa or Mastercard to make the payment. However, I don't have one.

The invoice will only be issued after filling out the form in the provided link, and the payment method is stated on the invoice.

LISHIGE 2023-07-20

How long will it take to receive the email after accepting? Is it only possible to follow up with a communication email? Is it true that only a communication email will receive PROOF? I am not a communication email.

LISHIGE 2023-07-20

How long will it take to receive an email after acceptance? Will I only receive PROOF if I have a communication email? I am not a communicator. Do I have to make the supervisor monitor it as well?

LISHIGE 2023-07-20

Is PROOF only received by communication email? I am not communication.

王子的爸爸 2023-07-20

Share your experience then. I published it in May and at that time, I only received the link to the online publication of the article. It has been 2 months now and I still haven't received any emails regarding payment.

王子的爸爸 2023-07-20

My article has been published for 2 months, why didn't I find that email that requires confirmation? Is it the same email that was sent when the manuscript was submitted?

王子的爸爸 2023-07-20

I received the link posted online, but I did not receive the link for payment. The article can now be found online.

请让我发论文 2023-07-19

Clicking on that link is to fill in some confirmation information or something similar. After filling it out, the publishing house will send you an invoice for payment. You need to submit it within one month.

一路向北ZZX 2023-07-19

He later sent me an email with a link inside, which contains several steps to complete, including a payment process. I haven't completed this link yet. So, is the payment mandatory? Can I publish without paying?

外泌体 2023-07-19

May I ask how long it will take for me to receive the revisions after the review is completed and it becomes "with editor"?

stutry 2023-07-19

I am in the same situation. I received the acceptance on July 13th, but I haven't received any email about paying the publication fee. The official version of the article has already been online since July 17th. If you have any updates, please let me know. I am feeling anxious!

"巨慢这个杂志" translates to "Giant Slow this magazine" in English.

林丫丫 2023-07-17

Scholars, how are you doing? Afraid of rejection letter.

一路向北ZZX 2023-07-17

Transferred from another journal: Submitted at the end of February, accepted on July 10th with minor revisions in between.
There's a question, this journal is open access, so theoretically, I should pay a publication fee of $2100. However, I don't know if I can use a discount code?
Also, the proof has been completed, but the article has not been paid for yet. However, it is already searchable on ScienceDirect. Is this reasonable? Could there be a possibility of withdrawal if the fee is not paid? Or can it be supported without being open access? I emailed the editorial office, and they said they need to ask the manager, but the manager has not replied.
