The reply was sent using the corresponding author's email, simply clicking on the email he sent and selecting "reply".

This should be fine as well, right? However, I remember that at that time, I replied by sending an email with the materials attached, and the reply email number is the one attached at the end of the acceptance email you received.

Hello, I have a question to ask. After being accepted, I received this email: your manuscript is in the final stage of production and to move ahead we require clean non-anonymized files in editable format. Also please make sure that the equations are editable. Figures in- JPEG/Tiff Tables/Main document- word document Please provide the same, latest by 13th November, 2024. I then provided the documents as requested, with edited equation formats, images in tif format, compressed into one file, and sent back via email. However, a week later they sent the same email again. Therefore, I would like to ask for the correct way to handle this. Should I send the files through the "contact journal" function on the submission system?

Hello, I have a question to ask you. After being accepted for publication, I received the following email from you: "your manuscript is in the final stage of production and to move ahead we require clean non-anonymized files in editable format. Also please make sure that the equations are editable. Figures in- JPEG/Tiff Tables/Main document- word document Please provide the same, latest by 13th November, 2024." I then provided the documents as requested, with edited formula formats, images in tif format, compressed into one file, and sent back via email. However, a week later, I received the same email again. So, I would like to ask, should I send the files through the "contact journal" function in the submission system?

I then provided the documents as requested, edited the equation format, converted images to tif format, compressed everything into one file, and sent it back through email. However, a week later, they sent me the same email again.
So, I would like to ask, should I send the files through the "contact journal" feature in the submission system?

Yes, the editor mentioned in the email that resubmission is allowed.

Hello, host. I would like to ask, did the editor explicitly state in the email that the submission can be revised and resubmitted?

It shows "Awaiting Recommendation" on October 31st, and it's been 8 days now and still in this status.

11.3 awaiting decision
11.6 accept
From August 22nd to November 6th, a little over two months, it is considered a relatively efficient journal. Everything went smoothly, hoping everyone else can hear back soon as well!

I'm getting impatient, but there are still no results.

It's so fast, it's been four days already and I'm still waiting for advice, it hasn't turned into a decision.

After I received the recommendation, I was in the "Awaiting Decision" status. Once the "Awaiting Decision" period ended, the result of the paper was revealed. I was in the "Awaiting Recommendation" status for only one day before it changed to "Awaiting Decision", which lasted for a whole week.

Hello, host. My current status is Awaiting Recommendation. Does it mean the next step is to wait for a decision?

Hello OP, my current status is Awaiting Recommendation. Could you please tell me how many more steps I have to go through before reaching a decision, and how long did it take for you to go from this status to a decision?

The first two times were 1 day, and the last time was a wait of 3 days.

It took about 25 days from waiting for the external audit score to giving feedback. After the external audit on September 6th, it took several days to invite a sufficient number of review experts. It varies in speed.

How long did it take for you to receive feedback from the deputy editor after waiting?

At the beginning, I would check the changes in status every day.

Hello, how do you keep such detailed records of the updates for this submission? Do you check it every day, or do you have a complete history of all status changes stored somewhere?
