Enable a schedule under Journals Automation only if you want background citation lookups. ### Shortcodes * `[wisdjoma_journals]` `[wisdjoma_issues]` `[wisdjoma_papers]` `[wisdjoma_author_profile]` * `[wisdjoma_search]` `[wisdjoma_paper_metrics]` * `[wisdjoma_submit]` `[wisdjoma_my_submissions]` ### REST API * `GET /wp-json/wisdjoma/v1/journals` * `GET /wp-json/wisdjoma/v1/papers` * `GET /wp-json/wisdjoma/v1/papers/{id}` * `POST /wp-json/wisdjoma/v1/papers/{id}/status` * `GET /wp-json/wisdjoma/v1/stats` ### External services Wisdom Journal Manager can connect to external scholarly metadata and DOI services when site administrators choose to use those optional integrations. #### Crossref REST API Used to look up DOI metadata and citation counts. Data sent: a DOI in the request URL and, if the site owner configures the optional polite pool identifier, a contact email in the request headers.
