Major Maintenance Schedule

To Our Esteemed Authors,

 

Due to a system error in the OJS platform of UrbanGreen Central Media, all journals published by UrbanGreen Central Media—including the SALIMBADA Journal—are undergoing scheduled maintenance from 31 August to 30 November 2025. This announcement is being published on 24 November 2025, as the system has recovered approximately 80% and is currently in the testing phase.

In light of this situation, all manuscript submissions during this period are being handled manually via email. If you wish to submit a manuscript before 1 December 2025, please contact us directly via email or WhatsApp. All manuscripts received via email have been and continue to be processed progressively by our editorial team.

The system failure was likely caused by a cybersecurity incident (unauthorized access/hacking), necessitating extensive repairs to fully restore functionality and ensure long-term system stability and security.

Authors planning to submit manuscripts after 1 December 2025 are kindly requested to use the OJS platform again—provided that a follow-up announcement confirming full system restoration has been issued by 1 December 2025.

We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your understanding and continued support.

Thank you.
