Re: [Koha] possible bug
Thanks to all, the issue is that the items were still in mysql database, one colleague has checked that in master and another 3.14.3 instllation the behaviour is fine, next time we attach an item we will monitor all the process and inform you. thanks a loty 2014-06-12 1:49 GMT+02:00 Robin Sheat ro...@catalyst.net.nz: Paul A schreef op wo 11-06-2014 om 09:27 [-0400]: This is normal (at least in 3.8).

Re: [Koha] User tagging
Hi! I work with two libraries (one public library quite new to Koha and one small school library) that use tags. They are somewhat useful, but it’s clear that to tap into the potential of creating a folksonomy you need to take Metcalfe’s law into account and populate the tags with data from far larger services than the local library. The problem is particularly difficult in such a small language area as Sweden. It’s hard enough to get even a national service to get user tagging really going. With that said I’ve been hoping to integrate our Koha installations with the national service for user created metadata when they get their new APIs up and running in the future.

Re: [Koha] multiple instances of koha
Hi, yes you can, it's quite easy with the koha-create command, as suggested by Galen. Remember to set Apache's virtual hosts accordingly for your new instance, after you run it (check /etc/apache2/sites-*/newInstanceName).

Tate jt...@mdah.state.ms.us wrote: Does anyone know if you can create another instance of koha (for training and development) on the same server as your live instance without messing with your live instance Yes, this is quite doable, assuming that your server has enough disk space to store the additional database and has enough RAM and CPU capacity that peak use of the test instance doesn't take away from the production instance. The easiest way to set this up is to install Koha from the koha-common Debian package [1]. You can then use the koha-create command to add instances. One thing to note with that setup, however, is that all of the instances are perforce going to be at exactly the same version of Koha. If you want to test a different version of Koha, having a separate server or virtual machine for the test instance would be easier to manage.

Re: [Koha] Basic user instruction?
Hi Karen! It sounds like you are talking about the search results view in the Opac(?). If you have someone at hand somewhat familiar with CSS and jQuery I’d say that it would be quite possible to move the information around to better suit your needs. What happens is basically that Koha generate the page as usual and delivers it to the user. When the page is loaded the local browser on the users computer then readjust the layout/look of the page when presenting it to the user. If you have a demo to work on you could ask any jQuery/javascript ninja to stick their scripts in the preference ”opacuserjs” and help you sort it out until it looks right. The good thing about this approach is that you don’t have to change anything in the actual Koha-parts. The parts you might want to move around or restyle looks like that classes ”results_summary availability” for the whole group of info or ”available” for the separate groups of info on available for loan/reference.

The opportunity to limit to youth materials and our building are down below the first screen. I am told that much of this can't be changed.

Re: [Koha] Is Record Matching Rules required for Koha ?
Many libraries use the Record Matching Rules to match records when they do batch imports. They are very very very necessary.

Re: [Koha] User tagging
Galen, We have the tagging turned on for our consortium of 50 libraries. We have the moderation turned on and there is at least one staff member at each library that has the ability to moderate tags. What we find is that nobody adds tags. Not patrons, not staff, not no one. The same is true for comments. Nobody even seems to know they exist.

Re: [Koha] Importing data into Koha 3.14
Hello Hugo, Thanks a lot! I already split the files into two files as you are suggesting now. The point is that I have data from many different sources with different file formats and the data is not consistent and I have to migrate all them into Koha as a Union List. That was easy for the case of “004” but I have files with the case, where the bib and the item are split into two records into the same file and connected using the “001” tag, which means they have the same “001” tag where the difference is in the LDR only where the item/holding has “cy” or “ny” in its LDR. Do you have any suggestion on how can I split such a file? What search can I do to be able to export all items in this case (without having the 004 field)? One last question if I may, I will be migrating books from different universities, and we might have the same book in more than one university, is there a way to link these same books under one record when searching for the book and have the holdings list all the locations of the book? Or they will always be imported as two different bibs and will be returned in OPAC search as two different results? Many Thanks for the continuous support, Best Regards.
