The PDF of an article harvested from DergiPark (Türkiye's national journal platform) appears on the site only if the harvest copied the PDF and the article is open access. The page of an article whose PDF was not copied links to the original page on DergiPark. Check the causes below in order.

PDF copying is off

If the Copy the PDFs too option is off, the harvest does not copy PDFs. Turn the option on as described in Harvesting from DergiPark. The option needs a licence in the journal record.

The option was turned on after the first harvest

If copying was turned on later, the earlier articles open at the next harvest. The harvest also copies the PDFs of articles that have not changed on DergiPark, sets their access status to Open access and, if their licence field is empty, enters the journal's licence. If you do not want to wait for the harvest, press Harvest now.

The PDF will be tried again

If the result line has a PDFs to try again count, DergiPark did not give these PDFs at the time. The harvest requests them again 20 minutes later and again after that if needed. The details are in DergiPark PDF Copies.

The PDF will not be requested again

If the result line says that the PDF could not be downloaded, the file may not have been found on DergiPark, may not be a PDF or may be too large. The harvest does not request this PDF again. Upload the full text by hand on the article's Files tab. The steps are in Files and Access.

The virus scan is running

Every copied PDF goes through the virus scan and does not appear on the site before the scan has finished. The scan status of the file is shown on the article's Files tab.
