# Freelance OJS Developer – Fix Left Sidebar Links
We are looking for an experienced **Open Journal Systems (OJS) developer** to fix an issue with the left sidebar navigation links on our journal website.
### Task
The OJS website has a left sidebar containing several navigation links. Some of these links are pointing to the wrong journal path/domain.
For example, links are currently being generated with:
`/index.php/ijmdi/`
but they need to point to:
`/index.php/ijcsd/`
The issue should be fixed properly at the **OJS/theme/template level**, rather than relying only on a temporary JavaScript workaround.
### Requirements
* Strong experience with **OJS (Open Journal Systems)**
* Experience working with OJS themes, templates, PHP, HTML, CSS and JavaScript
* Ability to identify where the incorrect URLs are being generated
* Fix the root cause without affecting other OJS functionality
* Ensure all sidebar links work correctly after the change
* Check that the fix does not break responsive/mobile layouts
* Avoid unnecessary modifications to the OJS core files
* Provide a brief explanation of what was changed
### Important
We already have access to the website and can provide the relevant theme/CSS/template files and admin/server access to the selected freelancer.
**Please do not simply add a JavaScript URL-replacement workaround unless there is no practical OJS-level solution. We want the underlying issue identified and corrected.**
### Deliverable
A fully working OJS sidebar with the correct journal URLs, with no broken navigation links.
### Freelancer Requirements
Please mention:
1. Your experience with OJS
2. Which OJS versions you have worked with
3. Similar OJS/theme issues you have fixed
4. Your fixed price for this task
5. Estimated completion time
**Budget:** Please quote your best fixed price.
**Project Type:** One-time fix
**Preferred Freelancer:** OJS developer with proven experience
