Re: [Koha] How do Koha package updates work?

2020-06-06 Thread Katrin Fischer

Hi Dawson,

maybe some information on this page is helpful for you:

https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Koha_on_Debian

I found no specific information on updates, but maybe someone else could
chime in?

Re: [Koha] How to koha OPAC New Arrivals Books Display (Koha CoverFlow plugin)

2019-06-11 Thread Alvaro Cornejo
Hi

I tried to install coverflow following this tutorials but was unable to
make it run.

After saving the coverflow config and going out of pluging page, on
returning to the plugin page it does not show the plugin. If I do upload it
again, it uploads and shows the config I entered on my previous install
try... I´ve enabled plugins on koha config file and in opac variables

I used coverflow 2.4.24 since latest versions does not support my Koha
version 17.05.14. I´m using memcache that I reset along with apache2
service after modifying apache config.

I have both opac and admin interface redirected to use ssl and the apache2.
So I tried to place the apache scriptalias info in and out the virtual
directory with no success.

Any suggestions?

Regards

Alvaro

Re: [Koha] How to Koha coverflow feature enable 18.11.3

2019-04-12 Thread Katrin Fischer

Hi,

Koha doesn't have a coverflow feature as part of it's core code, but it
can be done using plugins.

Example:

https://github.com/bywatersolutions/koha-plugin-coverflow

You can find instructions on how to set it up on the plugin page itself.

Hope this helps,

Katrin

Re: [Koha] How many Koha libraries are there worldwide?

2016-08-24 Thread Marshall Breeding
I generally agree with the Catalyst that the number of implementations around 
the world is something in the 15,000 range.  I often mention in my talks that 
it is likely that Koha is the most implemented ILS globally.  I would like to 
be able to better document this assertion.  I know that there are many Koha 
implementations missing from the libraries.org directory I maintain.  I've 
mentioned this before, but any help the Koha community could lend in 
registering libraries using Koha in the directory would be very useful and 
would help bring recognition to its global impact.

Subject: Re: [Koha] How many Koha libraries are there worldwide?

Hi Michael, and all,

Catalyst say "around 15,000" lately, and feel pretty confident that this is 
still a conservative number. Why?

As Michael said, many libraries choose not to report anywhere that they use 
Koha, or might not think to do it, and the project does not make it compulsory. 
We know this looking at 
http://www.librarytechnology.org/lwc-processquery.pl?ILS=Koha because we can 
see gaps where many countries that have strong/prolific Koha communities are 
not well-represented. It's an English-speaking website - some Koha libraries 
may be unable to access it or have no reason to engage with it.

Liz Rea who runs koha-community.org in her own time (thank you Liz) just let me 
know that there were 2684 unique visits to the Koha download page, from 1-21 
August. That's 21 days, 2684/21 = 128 unique visits per day. Lets multiply that 
by 365 and we have 46,720 visits in 1 year (they won't all be unique when we do 
this based on a 3 week sample, but it's an indication). Koha has been around 
for going on 17 years,  and we all know that the rate of libraries leaving Koha 
is really really low  :-)

*If* we all reported to hea.koha-community.org we could tell a more complete 
story (I'm not pointing the finger, Catalyst don't currently report all our 
customers to Hea - I mean to ask them all though!)

We don't know for sure how many libraries in New Zealand use Koha. It's around 
80-100 if you count by physical branches, rather than organisations. There are 
49 items in librarytechnology.org that match
Koha+New Zealand, so NZ is only approx half-reported there, and we speak
ok English ;) There are loads more Koha libraries around the pacific, often 
supported out of NZ or Australia.

Best wishes,
Kathryn

[Koha] How many Koha libraries are there worldwide?

Hi

I wonder how many libraries worldwide are using Koha.

At the moment Marshall Breedings wonderful website libraries.org lists 
4'352 libraries using Koha:

* http://www.librarytechnology.org/lwc-processquery.pl?ILS=Koha

I always thought there are about 4'000 or meanwhile even 6'000 libraries 
using Koha, since of course not everyone is listing their library in 
libraries.org.


But today I was thrilled to find the number of "around 15'000" Koha 
libraries in an article by Catalyst:

* https://www.catalyst-eu.net/news/koha-introduction-courses

Does anyone have other numbers? Or does anyone have the approximate 
numbers for his own country?


For Austria, Germany and Switzerland I try to find every Koha library, 
these are the current numbers (http://adminkuhn.ch/wiki/Koha/Anwender), 
but not counting library branches:


* Austria: 7
* Germany: 37
* Switzerland: 7

Best wishes, Michael

[Koha] How in koha

2013-10-01 Thread Achamie Aynalem
I automated a library using koha 3.12. In my system, I created an -extended
patron attribute- called ID that holds students' ID Number and checked to
be Unique identifier.
But while I insert or import patrons from a .csv file;
**when I assign value for The patron attribute field in the .Csv (like
ID:), it works well so prevents entering different patrons with similar
ID (well).
**when entering a patron with no value for the ID, it simply enters the
patron so entering of so many patrons with null value for their ID (failed).
so, how to make koha prevent the entrance of null value for a unique patron
attribute like ID in my case?

Hello,

I am not too sure I fully understand what you want to achieve but if you want 
to keep track of Students ID number why not use that as the cardnumber instead 
of bothering with attributes. Out of the box installation cardnumber is unique 
and can not be null.

Hope this helps.
