Hello!
I want to build review articles before publish. But that would happen if an author chose a journal, if he did not choose a journal when creating his article the article would simply be published on the site.
In this regard, I have two questions:
- How to build it in view? If I understand correctly, it can be built by BooleanField in models. But I don’t know how to build it in my views. I tried to build this, but It doesn’t work.
- Also it will be good opportunity if this article is accepted by publisher if they have a representative on the site, if not, the article would be sent to the database for inspection by the administration of the site (I have “editor” in journal models).
I will be happy if you help me.

I have no idea how to do that. I would welcome any ideas on that.
