First, let me review the journal and then discuss the timeline for the peer review process, to provide everyone with some reference. I am also eager to know the timeline for my submission, but there is not much information available in the reviews.
First of all, I submitted to PLOS ONE because of my graduation requirements. Secondly, the journal is really not easy to get published in now. The academic editor for my paper is a top expert in the field. There were two reviewers in the first round of review and they provided 13 comments. Among them, they requested additional experiments that I intentionally omitted earlier because I found them troublesome, but they were required by the reviewers. Then, I believe everyone needs to objectively view PLOS ONE. Nowadays, many universities require master's graduates to publish papers. In the first year of graduate school, there are classes, and in the third year, there is an internship and a large thesis to write. How much time is there to write small papers, not to mention the time for the peer review process? I am also a reviewer for a journal in the first district of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and the review time in the hands of the reviewers is only about a week (with a deadline of 21 days). This kind of journal greatly speeds up the review process, which is beneficial for researchers. Finally, any journal can have good articles, and any journal can also have poor quality articles. Choosing based on one's own needs is the most correct choice.

Submitted at the end of February, received the acceptance notice in early July.
The publication fee is $1750.
The overall process was relatively fast, and the reviewer's comments were quite fair. Personally, I don't feel it was as easy as others claimed, as there were still certain difficulties. It took two rounds of revisions before it was accepted.

Submission in February.
Minor revisions in May, with very constructive comments from two reviewers.
Accepted in September, with several rounds of formatting revisions that took a long time.
Currently, no discussion about publication fees.
Overall, the efficiency is quite high.

Except for tables and images requiring fixed formatting, it seems that this journal does not have many specific formatting requirements. Additionally, it is important to carefully compare the PLOS Affiliations Formatting Guidelines and PLOS Manuscript Body Formatting Guidelines. There is nothing else that needs particular attention, but please note that I am currently not an accepted person, so my experience may not be very reliable. Please handle with caution.

May I ask if you have a template for PLOS ONE? The template I found on the official website is different from the published paper format.

What's going on, Xiaoxiu returned on July 24th after the minor repairs, but it's still "Under Review" until now. I'm really worried about being... sigh... But my heart...

May I ask how long after paying the manuscript fee will it be online? I haven't received any emails from the editor since submitting the payment for the paper.
xiaochoujiao 2021-08-22
Submission in February
Returned for revisions in June with 8 suggestions, one of which was directly refuted
Accepted in July, notified to submit original data
Paid a publication fee of $1700 in August
I just feel that the process took a bit too long.

How long does it usually take for the official acceptance notice to be sent after the manuscript of the journal "LOS ONE" has been edited?

Recently, a revision was made to an empirical article in the field of economics in PLOS ONE. The current status is minor revisions required, pending review (some words are blocked and cannot be sent).

Submitted to PLOS ONE at the end of February and received acceptance notification in mid-July. There were two reviewers in total, both of whom provided very constructive feedback. There weren't many issues raised regarding the methods, but there were numerous requests and suggestions for improvements in the textual aspects of the article, such as the abstract, references, and conclusions.

It's not easy to deal with plants, especially crops. It takes years to see results. I worked for three years and wrote an article, but it was rejected. It really pointed out the shortcomings of my article. Now I am conducting additional experiments. Anyway, I haven't found any shortcuts in this journal. It's not necessarily true that you can get published just by paying money. It might also depend on one's character. Some people are like haters who just start insulting when they catch you! I learned that a classmate of mine published in this journal last year without paying any publication fees...

May I ask if the original data is required now?
super_lei 2021-05-05
Is this raw data the source code or the results generated by running the code?

I also find it strange why they didn't charge me for the page fee. I even specifically emailed their editorial department asking why they didn't collect my page fee. The other party said they would collect it once it's published... but the problem is, my article has been published for several months already.
Although it saves money not to be charged, it still feels odd.

I can only say, don't invest if you're not capable. If you invest, don't complain. If you really have the "integrity" as you claim, then why invest? But in the end, you still invested for 12 months. What's the point of pretending to be a big shot here? Pick up your bowl and eat, and stop cursing others. With your high quality, Chinese scientific research has hope.

Recently, there is a revised manuscript in an SSCI top journal in the field of economic and financial empirical research.

May I ask how long it takes to receive the formal acceptance after submitting the manuscript? I have been waiting for more than ten days, and I am crying.
