[Koha] Quick question
Kia ora, I am advocating for Koha and wish to point out that 'free' doesn't mean 'low quality' or 'cut down', could someone please point out of couple of examples of Koha powering 'large' libraries please.

Does anybody shed the ligh on this. bz its very important. Fwdind from the other thread: To search exact barcode like 1, you can use asterisk before and after the barcode what you want to search. eg. *1* or *100* like. It is giving exact search results in opac and intranet.

Re: [Koha] Searching by Barcode
Dear Keri, Thanks for giving a prompt reply. But your answer is not enough to resolve what my issue is. My problem is: When I try to search any multiple copy items with the same record but it reflects all copies items along with required copy; means I do not need other irrelevant copies of same record for catalogue. Please flash the light on this. Looking for best optimum answer Thanks, Bharat On Tue, Jul 31, 2012 at 1:18 PM, Kari Blomster m.kirjasto.hailu...@gmail.com wrote: Does anybody shed the ligh on this. bz its very important.

[Koha] Stable vs maintenance releases?
Can someone explain the difference between these two? http://download.koha-community.org/ lists these as 3.8.3 (stable) and 3.6.7 (maintenance) ... I would have thought that a maintenance release is done on top of a stable release, comprising minor bug fixes and the like. And how is it determined what the latest stable release is? I notice that Equinox's support page is still listing 3.4.1 as the current stable version. Is this something that varies from support company to support company, depending on their confidence in a particular release, their philosophy of development, etc?

Re: [Koha] Stable vs maintenance releases?
Cab, They are both stable branches and releases on both are maintenance releases each month. I prefer to think of them as stable and oldstable. With master bein development. 3.4.1 is pretty old I'd say the site needs an update. When we release a new feature release a x.x.0 release we don't kill the previous release tree. So currently we are doing monthly maintenance releases for the 2 stable branches. 3.8.x and 3.6.x, this means people can stick with the latest release of 3.6.x until they have decided they want to move. So we have feature releases, every 6 months and maintenance every 1. The only exception is a security release, if something requires an urgent release we will do that.

Re: [Koha] SQL queries to delete records from the database?
Hello everyone Re: my reindexing problems (the SQL query being just what I thought would help solving the problem). A big thank you to everyone around. I received some help (private messages) and I think the problem is solved now. My understanding of the problem is that the cron job was all messed up (probably my fault). No further indexing problem since the cronjob has been redone properly. Many many thanks to everyone here for their support!
