About DOAJ Export
From the official readme · v1.0.4Description
This plugin adds a feed to your site that uses the DOAJ article XML schema. The XML file it creates would be suitable for uploading to the Directory of Open Access Journals.
Known Problems
- The language code cannot be changed from “eng”.
- Does not play well with the FeedBurner FeedSmith plugin (which redirects you to your FeedBurner feed, so you never see the DOAJ XML output).
Installation
- Unzip and copy the files to your plugins directory.
- Activate the plugin.
- If appropriate, set the publisher name, ISSN, and eISSN on the DOAJ Export settings page.
