07:57 heroxbd Hi. everybody. How can I customize the "10 tabs" as mentioned in http://www.kohadocs.org/Description2_2.html:
07:58 The cataloguing template of each framework ("MARC editor") is divided into 10 different tabs, making it possible to organize the display of the catalog record according to the practices of the library: The MARC tags most frequently used can be put in tab 0, while the more rarely used fields are still available in only one click. This method guarantees effective and fast cataloguing.
07:58 paul (hi) koha >> parameters >> frameworks >> select field >> select the "tab" where to put each subfield (Ignore / 0 -> 9 / 10 (items) )
08:01 heroxbd Thank you, but I can't find exactly the items you mentioned. I am using Koha 2.2.8. What's your version?
08:06 pual, maybe you can tell me how to manage the tabs in the demo (http://koha.liblime.com/). We can have a common base.
08:07 paul ok
08:08 heroxbd Thank you! :)
08:08 paul http://koha.liblime.com/cgi-bi[…]oha/admin-home.pl
08:08 then : http://koha.liblime.com/cgi-bi[…]blio_framework.pl
08:08 heroxbd Yes, I am in that place.
08:08 paul select BOOK for example
08:08 (MARC structure)
08:09 020 > view subfields
08:09 heroxbd Ok,
08:09 paul edit subfields
08:09 Managed in tab :
08:09 ignore, 0-> 9 or 10 (items)
08:09 heroxbd Oh, I see!
08:10 I am very appreciated. :)
08:10 paul just 1 note
08:11 avoid having a subfields in 2 differents tabs for a given field.
08:11 koha don't like that at all...
08:11 (and it's illogic from a librarian point of view)
08:11 heroxbd OK. I will remember that point.
08:37 Excuse me. Can I backup the curret setting of biblio framework into a file?
08:41 chris hi all
08:41 yes you can using mysqldump heroxbd
08:42 mysqldump -uusername -ppassword databasename tablename > tablebackup.sql
08:43 heroxbd oh, great. Thank U!
08:43 chris i think the table you want is marc_subfield_table (paul will tell you if im wrong)
08:45 paul heroxbd: chris is right
08:45 oups, no...
08:45 it's marc_subfield_structure
08:45 (not table)
08:45 chris ahh, i always get that wrong :)
08:45 heroxbd ThX, I will try it out :)
08:47 chris heroxbd: you are in Beijing right?
08:48 heroxbd Yes.
08:48 Have you been here?
08:48 chris cool
08:48 yes in 1997
08:49 heroxbd Beijing is busy preparing 2008 Olympic right now.
08:49 Maybe you can come again :)
08:49 chris :) i hope too
08:49 i was in China in 2003 as well, but just Shanghai that time
08:50 its not so far from New Zealand :)
08:53 heroxbd It is far, I bet. I can imagine how far it is through a world map.
08:54 chris not as far away as Paul :)
08:54 paul heroxbd: chris is only interested by Rugby : organise china <=> all blacks, and he will come for sure :-D
08:54 chris hehe
08:55 heroxbd :D I don't know much about Rugby, maybe I should learn to play some time.
08:56 paul much more interesting than soccer to look at imho.
08:56 chris paul: i see the All Blacks play Italy in Marseille on 8 september
08:56 paul (although i'm in the city in france where soccer is a religion...)
08:57 yes. there are already many paintings in the city saying "marseille, the city of all blacks"
08:57 s/many/some/
08:57 chris :)
08:57 paul the city of all blacks, for world cup, of course ;-)
08:58 heroxbd hehe. Now I am examining the subfields one by one. Is that a reasonable approach?
08:59 paul are u a librarian or techy guy ?
08:59 heroxbd neither.
08:59 dewey neither is additionalauthors
08:59 hdl hello.
09:00 dewey: forget neither
09:00 dewey hdl: I forgot neither
09:00 heroxbd paul: I am a second year undergraduate major in Physics
09:00 and currently helping department of Mathematics set up an ILS.
09:01 paul in MARC there are usually much much much more fields than needed by "small" libraries.
09:01 so examining subfields one by one is maybe a hard work for a small result.
09:01 maybe you should start with marc fields and do a 1st selection here.
09:02 heroxbd paul: Then is there an easy way?
09:02 1st selection?
09:02 paul (I don't know MARC21, but in UNIMARC, there are more than 15 fields to manage indexing of a biblio. Usually 1 is enough)
09:02 look at marc_tag_structure table.
09:02 heroxbd the exported one?
09:03 or this one? http://166.111.25.49:8080/cgi-[…]rctagstructure.pl
09:04 paul yep
09:04 heroxbd Maybe this IP can't be visited due to the control of our univ
09:04 Yes, I can c a pills of fields that I am not fimilar with.
09:05 How can i ignore most of them?
09:05 paul do a global update to ignore everything (SQL) then, select only the subfields you want
09:06 update marc_subfield_structure set tab=-1
09:07 heroxbd in a shell? "update marc_subfield_structure set tab=-1"
09:07 hdl No, in mysql console.
09:07 Or in phpmyadmin interface.
09:08 mysql mydb -u user -ppassword
09:08 then type update marc_subfield_structure set tab=-1
09:09 if you are not on the same machine for mysql and your work, you will have to use -h host option to mysql command line.
09:09 heroxbd Ok, I will try out. ThX
09:10 I have already sshed into the host :)
09:18 mysql> update marc_subfield_structure SET tab=-1
09:18    -> \c
09:19 paul missing ;
09:19 heroxbd like this? there no output of this command.
09:19 paul (at the end)
09:19 heroxbd oh
09:21 Great! Done. I will go with my work. Thanks, pual and hdl!
10:03 good night
10:28 Excuse me. Is there a price field in MARC?
10:39 http://koha.liblime.com/cgi-bi[…]tail.pl?bib=12689
10:39 How is the item "price" in the bottom of the page managed?
10:44 Oh, I have found it. :) good
