It's been almost 2 months since I submitted my work, why haven't I found an editor yet? When will I be able to find one? It's really taking forever

Hello, may I ask how long it usually takes to be assigned to an editor after submitting a manuscript? Mine has been stuck at "No associate editor assigned."

Is the official website being hacked and can't be accessed?

It took more than 4 months in total, but in the end it was rejected. One reviewer agreed to publish, one reviewer suggested revisions, but then withdrew after the revisions, two reviewers withdrew, and two reviewers rejected. The final reason for rejection was questioning our treatment plan. Oh, this journal really knows how to waste time

Thumbs up for your professional ethics!

If your submission is not immediately rejected, there is still hope. After a month of no reviewers being assigned by the editorial department, they will ask you to recommend a few reviewers. In the end, I had a total of two reviewers, one of whom I recommended. Usually, there are 2-3 reviewers, and both of mine gave major revisions. They both agreed to accept within less than a week of sending the revised manuscript back. The fifth step is where the editor has the final say, even if the reviewers agree to accept, the editor can still reject. The final two steps are in the hands of the editorial department, and some may find themselves back at the fourth or fifth step, usually requesting additional reviewers because the previous reviewers' comments were not sufficient, among other reasons. Some may also think that the responses to the reviewers were not well-written

Did each reviewer reply directly to the editor via email?

Sharing of Experience: Hello everyone, I successfully submitted my paper on July 4th and received the first reviewer's comments on August 24th. The second reviewer's comments came on September 7th, and my paper is currently in the Independent status. I'm wondering if I need to wait for the third reviewer's response before entering the revising stage? Will the journal notify me via email for revisions, or will it be updated on their official website? This is my first submission, so I would appreciate any advice. Thank you!

3 reviewers, one accepts directly, one suggests minor revisions, one suggests major revisions. After the major revisions, the manuscript was revoked. Still, I am grateful for this journal as it has a high publication rate and is relatively easier. As long as my institution does not include Frontiers in the warning list.

This is the worst journal submission experience I have ever encountered.  I was asked to make major and then minor revisions. Suddenly one of the reviewers was removed from the process due to his/her delayed response, leading the editor to restart the review process yet again. Surprisingly, the revoked reviewer is the one who asked for major and then minor revisions.  I have lost all confidence in this journal and will not submit any future work to this journal or any other Frontiers journal.

Experience sharing: Can I ask you experts a question? Both reviewers agreed to publish, the status last week was waiting for final validation, and this week a new editor took over, and the status displayed is indeed under review. Does this mean it's going to be reviewed again?
