A quick test of the bug worked very well. I think this could be a
great improvement.

For what it's worth, this is what our Keyword to MARC mapping looks
like (MARC21):

subtitle 245 b
subtitle 245 n
subtitle 245 p
subtitle 245 h

I think the default value for OPACFallback is "prog" even though that
template no longer exists.

The system preference 'opacthemes' is where you choose which OPAC
template is used. There should be only one choice -- bootstrap.

If that is correct, changing the OPACFallback preference shouldn't
affect anything at all.

[Koha] Requesting opinions on proposed change to AuthDisplayHierarchy

2018-07-27 Thread Owen Leonard
Thanks to everyone who weighed in on my question about the cataloging
interface. I have another one:

If the AuthDisplayHierarchy system preference is turned on,
hierarchies of authority records are displayed via a JavaScript plugin
which makes a collapsible tree of authority links. I propose that this
be replaced with a static, CSS-styled tree. Doing so would cut one
JavaScript plugin dependency.

From the bug report
(https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=21128)
here's a screenshot of the updated OPAC view:

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/attachment.cgi?id=77307

And in the staff client:

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/attachment.cgi?id=77308

At my library we don't use this feature, so I don't really know how it
is used in production.

Are authority hierarchies often so "deep" that having a collapsible
display is preferred?

If so, could clicking to show or hide the entire tree be a viable alternative?

Thanks,

   Owen

I don't know anything about how an implementation would work, but I'd

Aside from one minor markup error I find that your example works fine
for me. I'm not sure what you want it to look like, but I think you're
missing a closing  after the first . That
might not be right, though, since that would make your "About" menu
empty. Double-check your markup, because I think that is the root of
your problem.

You're referring to documentation for the Bootstrap version 4 Alpha
release. The OPAC still uses Bootstrap 2.x, so you should look here:

What you see is an empty list item which has this style:

.navbar-inverse .divider-vertical {
border-left-color: #11;
border-right-color: #22;
}

To make it go away, you could add this to the OpacUserCSS system preference:

I think that's an interesting idea, but the larger problem remains:
There will always be contention around how the support companies list
is made, no matter what. I think we've done pretty well with the very
basic requirements we've set for for listing. I'm inclined to either
stick with it or, if it's agreed that the current system is too
contentious, eliminate it altogether.

The immediate question, about a listing for BestBookBuddies, is best
answered as it already was: It would be a duplicate listing of OpenLX
and should be rejected.

Re: [Koha] mobile app

2017-06-15 Thread Owen Leonard
There is no "official" mobile app for Koha. The Koha OPAC is fully
responsive, so it should work well on any device.

There are third-party services which will integrate library catalogs
into their own app, but I don't know much about them.

Local covers are stored in the database, in a table called
biblioimages. If you back up your Koha database you are backing up
your local cover images too.

In system preferences look for the AdvancedSearchTypes preference.
This should contain at least "ccode" if you want collection code to be

I personally don't think every bug report should be shared on the

Facebook group might be a good place to start a discussion about a

posting links isn't helpful.

After configuring them, you would trigger the print by opening the

The only disadvantages that I know of to using OPACUserCSS in this case are:

1. Like any other use of OPACUserCSS, the CSS isn't cached by the
browser. The affect here is surely minimal.
2. If your OPAC is running under SSL (which it should be) and the
image is served over a non-secure connection the browser will give
mixed-content warnings.

At my library we have used OPACUserCSS for years without any trouble.

The ability to use "Set library" is not tied to a patron-level

I can imagine some reasons why one would not want to explicitly offer
data under an open license:

- Fear that access to the data will become a financial burden
(hosting/data limits).
- Unwillingness to develop a method of access to the data.
- Unwillingness to make a commitment to maintaining the data and/or
API in the future.
- Desire to reserve the right to monetize access to the data in the future.

Some of those concerns can be mitigated by cooperation.

2016-12-14 Thread Owen Leonard
> I want to know the meaning of "3.x " version of koha.

If someone refers to "3.x," they are referring in general to the Koha
3 series of releases, 3.0 through 3.22.

Newer versions would be referred to in general as "16.x" since the
project moved to date-based versioning numbers. The latest release,
v16.11.00 was released in November (11) of 2016 (16).

The issue is about modifying the framework, not about entering data

Re: [Koha] Digital books

2016-11-02 Thread Owen Leonard
> 1.Can we add digital books (e books) to koha as well?

You can add MARC records for digital books but Koha does not store the
books themselves. We add MARC records for the resources we get from
other providers and link to the source via the 856 tag:

https://search.myacpl.org/cgi-bin/koha/opac-search.pl?idx=kw=Search=mc-ccode%3ADNLD_by=relevance

Are you asking how to add links from your Koha OPAC to another web
site? If so, you can use system preferences like OpacMainUserBlock to
add HTML to various areas of the OPAC:

http://translate.koha-community.org/manual/16.05/en/html-desktop/#editableopac

If you have the OPACAmazonCoverImages system preference enabled Koha
will try to find a cover from Amazon based on the ISBN in your MARC
record:

http://translate.koha-community.org/manual/16.05/en/html-desktop/#OPACAmazonCoverImages

If the ISBN isn't found, nothing will show.

I hope that helps,

Koha uses templates in conjunction with Perl scripts instead of HTML

Instead, users are encouraged to use custom CSS and custom JavaScript
to make interface changes.

If you tell us what buttons you want to change and how, we can give

The "AllowHoldsOnPatronsPossessions" preference is for letting the
patron place a hold on something they already have checked out. It
doesn't have any effect on the total number of holds a patron can
place. Is the total number of holds what you're looking to control?

If so, check your  maxreserves system preference and the settings in

If the items are all attached to a single bibliographic record, you
don't need any custom SQL command. Open the record in the staff client
catalog, e.g.

/cgi-bin/koha/catalogue/detail.pl?biblionumber=1234

In the holdings tab, select all the items you want to delete and click
the 'Delete selected items' link. This will pass the selected items to
the batch item deletion tool.

The only difference I could see when comparing it to others on the

It sounds like it's a bug in the wiki templates.

There was a patch which would have allowed for tracking previous card

Are you creating these records yourself, or are you importing them? I
find that non-Roman characters will display incorrectly if you choose
the wrong character encoding during the "Stage MARC records for
import" process. For instance, if you're importing a MARC file which
is encoded as MARC 8 but you keep the default UTF-8 setting.

Are you referring to this process?

If so: Moving the last item from a record using this process does not
delete the record. It will leave a record with no items attached.

> What is the necessity of  calling "Item type" (942c) at Record level
> instead of calling it as "record type".
> Circulation rules are defined for ITEMS which are associated with a RECORD.

ByWater Solutions posted something about this recently. The short
answer is that without a biblio-level item type (942c), any limit you
configure on the number of holds per item type will not work
correctly.

http://bywatersolutions.com/2016/03/22/biblio-level-item-types-koha/

"Holds are not so simple — in particular, with biblio level holds,
items aren’t associated with the hold record until the hold is filled.
This means, for the purposes of determining how many of a given item
type that a patron can check out, Koha must check the biblio level
item type… and if those are not set, or aren’t set consistently across
the collection, you may see errors in the number of items that a
patron can put on hold."

In Koha this data would be tracked in the Acquisitions module rather
than in MARC data. Theoretically it should be possible to import your
data into Acquisitions but I don't know how difficult it would be.

You might start by first learning how Koha's Acquisitions works and
then looking at the database schema. http://schema.koha-community.org/
The tables starting with "aq" are where acquisitions data is stored.
