### Compatibility
OJS 3.4

### Description
The plugin displays the list of the most cited submissions on the journal's index page.

### Installation
Install the plugin via the Plugin Gallery (`Settings -> Website -> Plugins -> Plugin Gallery`) or download the release matching your OJS version and install it via `Settings -> Website -> Plugins -> Upload A New Plugin`.

## How it works
After configuring the plugin, the installation will start fetching citation counts from the chosen provider, for all the submissions that have a DOI.

Once the citation harvesting work is complete, the plugin will build the list of most cited submissions, and start displaying them on the index page. Therefore, in case you've got a lot of submissions on your installation, the list of the most cited submissions might take a while to be displayed on the first usage.

The plugin synchronizes the citation counts monthly using a background service.

### Configuration
Go to the plugin settings, select a suitable data provider and fill in the required fields:
