| 13:11 | paul | hello fbcit |
| 13:13 | fbcit | paul: hello, from chilly NC, USA :) |
| 13:16 | paul | fc : what is "NC" ? |
| 13:16 | (which state) | |
| 13:18 | hi gmcharlt | |
| 13:18 | gmcharlt | hi paul |
| 13:19 | paul | are u still in portland ? |
| 13:19 | gmcharlt | no, I'm back in Chicago -- kados and a few other LibLimers are still there |
| 13:20 | paul | hdl start his trip to come back this evening if I don't mind. |
| 13:20 | quite a long long trip for him... but he was very happy (although very tired too) | |
| 13:24 | gmcharlt | good to hear that he liked it |
| 13:25 | paul | he even blogged (invited by one of the most famous blogger in France - nicolas morin- , that will join BibLibre in sep |
| 13:25 | fbcit | paul: North Carolina |
| 13:25 | sorry | |

| 13:25 | paul | the "vista capable" thing ? |
| 13:26 | or the EU fine ? | |
| 13:26 | (890 000 000 EUROS !) | |
| 13:26 | ok, it's the "vista capable" story ;-) | |
| 13:26 | fbcit | the vista capable |
| 13:28 | paul | "weld the hood shut on your car" ??? |
| 13:29 | fbcit | paul: keep you from doing any modifications to the engine (ie. closed-source code) |
| 13:29 | sorry for the Americanism :) | |
| 13:29 | usaism maybe | |
| 13:30 | gmcharlt | fbcit: a right mess indeed |
| 13:30 | brb | |
| 14:58 | paul | hello owen. |
| 14:58 | owen | Hi paul |
| 14:58 | kados | g'morning #koha |
| 14:58 | paul | hi kados. |
| 14:58 | still in portland ? | |
| 14:58 | (it's very early in this case) | |
| 14:58 | kados | yep, thru Sunday afternoon |
| 14:58 | about 7am | |
| 15:00 | paul: this new feature to alert on issue arrival, is it a new feature, or a bugfix to the routing lists? | |
| 15:01 | paul | none. |
| 15:01 | it's a feature that was in head since something than 1 year and had be broken by various modifs. | |
| 15:01 | kados | ahh |
| 15:01 | paul | it has nothing to do with routing lists. |
| 15:01 | kados | no? |
| 15:02 | paul | in fact I demoed the feature and was ridiculous because it didn't work at all ;-) |
| 15:02 | nope, it's something different | |
| 15:02 | kados | it looks like a way to subscribe to receive notice when a new issue of a subscription arrives |
| 15:02 | paul | yes, they recieve a mail. |
| 15:02 | routing lists means they are on the reserve list automatically. | |
| 15:02 | it's different. | |
| 15:02 | kados | gotcha |
| 15:03 | is there a new syspref to turn this on/off? | |
| 15:03 | paul | nope, just define a "letter" (notice), and use it in the subscription. |
| 15:03 | it can be activated subscription by subscription | |
| 15:03 | kados | ahh, so that is for notification, gotcha |
| 15:03 | paul | useful to have the feature for a quarterly and not for a daily subs |
| 15:04 | kados | so some subs that have it active will display that option, the others won't |
| 15:04 | paul | yep |
| 15:04 | kados | ok, cool ... I will also fix the English :-) |
| 15:04 | paul | feel free, you're better than me for that :-D |
| 15:51 | kados | done, and pushed |
| 15:51 | is hdl around? | |
| 15:51 | |hdl|: you there? | |
| 15:52 | re: lists.koha.org ... do we want koha-userslists.koha.org ... or koha-userskoha.org ? |
|
| 15:56 | gmcharlt | kados: no preference |
| 16:01 | paul | kados : I prefer lists.koha.org to separate clearly lists & mailboxes. |
| 16:41 | fbcit | almost as good as coffee :) |
| 16:41 | kados | hehe |
| 16:42 | chris | heh |
| 16:42 | kados | fbcit: I was thinking, in the absence of an image, it would be trivial to offer a form for adding one to the circ/details page for a patron |
| 16:42 | chris | 0 patches in the queue |
| 16:43 | kados | chris: none from paul? |
| 16:43 | paul | I can send them immediatly if you want. |
| 16:43 | they are ready... | |
| 16:43 | fbcit | kados: as in 'if (!image) { display form to submit a single image }' ? |
| 16:44 | kados | fbcit: yea, and also if (imagesareenabled) { ie (!image) ... |
| 16:44 | s/ie/if/ | |
| 16:44 | chris | kahu got his 15 month immunisations yesterday, so woke me up at 5am |
| 16:44 | hes back asleep now, but im wide awake | |
| 16:44 | kados | heh |
| 16:44 | fbcit | kados: could be done at the template level no problem I'd think |
| 16:44 | paul | patches sent |
| 16:44 | kados | fbcit: yea, just confirming that made sense to you |
| 16:45 | the only non-template bit would be re-directing to that user | |
| 16:45 | when the upload is complete | |
| 16:45 | fbcit | right |
| 16:45 | kados | ie, success page ... wait 5 secs, redirect to user account ... or maybe just add a link back to the account |
| 16:45 | link back to the account would be pretty simple | |
| 16:45 | owen: any thoughts on that? | |
| 16:46 | fbcit | I like the thought of an automatic redirect |
| 16:46 | its pretty easy to push a redirect header w/CGI | |
| 16:48 | chris: mercy screams any time she sees the doctor now :( | |
| 16:48 | owen | kados, you're suggesting there be a little file upload form right on the patron details screen? |
| 16:48 | chris | yeah the one in the arm ... that was the one that he hated |
| 16:49 | fbcit | owen: that's it. If no patron image existed, the form would be displayed: if an image did exist, the form would not display |
| 16:52 | owen | fbcit: right now there's not a way to tell in the template whether a patron image exists, right? |
| 16:53 | fbcit | owen: no, but that can be added along with a few other changes that would be necessary to implement such a feature |
| 16:56 | owen: I can add a template var 'image' which is defined if an image exists and undefined if it does not | |
| 16:57 | owen | make it 'patronimage' just for clarity |
| 16:57 | fbcit | we'll need some code to handle the redirection when the upload is done as well |
| 16:57 | k | |
| 17:08 | owen: I've added that var to moremember.pl | |
| 17:09 | however, there may be some things I need to add to picture-upload.pl as well | |
| 17:09 | owen | Should I duplicate the file upload form and have it submit to the same script as upload patron images? |
| 17:09 | fbcit | you'll have to call it to do the upload itself |
| 17:09 | yes I think so | |
| 17:10 | kados suggested a redirect back to the patron detail page after a successful upload | |
| 17:11 | you'll have to let me know if I need to modify picture-upload.pl to help with the redirect | |
| 17:11 | owen | Yeah, that sounds good. Shall I add a hidden variable to the file upload form on moremember that tells the picture-upload script to redirect? |
| 17:12 | kados | redirect=1 |
| 17:12 | or better uyet | |
| 17:12 | fbcit | owen: yes |
| 17:12 | kados | redirect=cardnumber |
| 17:12 | fbcit | kados++ |
| 17:13 | owen | it'll have to be redirect=borrowernumber, because moremember won't look up by cardnumber |
| 17:14 | fbcit | so if redirect is defined and there are no errors, picture-upload.pl will redirect |
| 17:14 | we'll have to handle errors, though | |
| 17:15 | kados | error_handling++ |
| 17:15 | fbcit | so I'll need to be passed borrowernumber either way |
| 17:15 | owen | Then I'll pass it as borrowernumber and you can use it however you like |
| 17:15 | fbcit | owen: you'll need to pickup all of the error trapping stuff in the picture-upload template |
| 17:16 | right, because either way I'll redirect | |
| 17:17 | if the upload is successful, the image will be displayed on the details page | |
| 17:17 | if it is unsuccessful, the upload form still shows up along with the error message(s) | |
| 17:17 | owen | You mean send the errors back to moremember.pl rather than stop the process on picture-upload.pl and display the errors there? |
| 17:18 | fbcit | owen: depends on how you're going to handle picture-upload.pl |
| 17:19 | are you going to use picture-upload.tmpl or embed the functionality of it in the upload section added to moremember.tmpl | |
| 17:20 | if we are going to detail-view -> picture-upload -> detail-view, we can loop through picture-upload until we have success | |
| 17:20 | owen | I'm embedding the upload form in moremember.tmpl |
| 17:21 | fbcit | I guess I was thinking detail-view -> detail-view regardless of success or failure |
| 17:21 | owen | Okay, that sounds good to me. |
| 17:23 | Is there a reason for me to be trying to modify the template while you're modifying the script? Why don't you do what you need to and let me know if there's anything I need to do. | |
| 17:23 | I trust you with the templates, unless you don't want the bother :) | |
| 17:23 | fbcit | I was just hashing through that myself |
| 17:23 | :) | |
| 17:24 | I'll make the changes to get the functionality and then you can review my template changes for mistakes/optimizations/etc | |
| 17:25 | is that ok with you? | |
| 17:26 | owen | You bet |
| 19:33 | kados around? | |
| 19:35 | gmcharlt | owen: probably not -- exploring Portland right now, I believe |
| 19:36 | owen | I'll take an opinion from anyone who wants to give one: In the OPAC, should we be loading the MARC record dynamically into a tab in the detail view? Right now there's a 'MARC' tab, but it links to a separate page |
| 19:36 | That's a little bit inconsistent, but it's nice to have the MARC record on its own page because of the space it takes up | |
| 19:37 | nengard | most OPACs have it on the same page - under a different tab |
| 19:38 | gmcharlt | hmm -- the whole set of navigation is inconsitent across the board -- normal, ISBD, MARC |
| 19:38 | nengard | don't know if we want to be like most OPACs though .... |
| 19:38 | gmcharlt: agreed | |
| 19:38 | gmcharlt | in normal view, you don't see the ISBD tab, the MARC tab is at the bottom along with comments |
| 19:38 | click on MARC view, you see normal view and ISBD tab buttons at the top | |
| 19:39 | click on ISBD view, the top buttoms disappaer, and at the bottom tab row you have choice of normal view and MARC view and comments | |
| 19:40 | IMO, whatever the view, the place hold, print, add to card, and save as buttons should be in the box near the upper right corner (as with normal view) | |
| 19:41 | and the buttons for change the view either should be separate from the row that has holdings, comments, editions, etc., or adding to it | |
| 19:41 | i.e., to be consistent | |
| 19:41 | don't think the MARC view should be dynamically loaded (at least the way the OPAC works currently) -- few patrons will want it, so there's no reason to send it on every detail page | |
| 19:42 | (could an AJAX thing, of course) | |
| 19:42 | owen | Maybe the links for ISBD and MARC should be somewhere else entirely. The other tabs are really supplemental information about the record, and MARC and ISBD are both alternate views of the record |
| 19:43 | gmcharlt | I guess I have a modest preferences for separating the placement of the buttons to switch view (normal, MARC, ISBD) from the auxiliariy data buttoms (holdings, descriptions, comments, etc.) |
| 19:43 | snap | |
| 19:43 | owen | We previously moved the MARC and ISBD links out of the box on the right that has place hold, lists, etc., on the theory that those were "actions" not "views" |
| 19:44 | gmcharlt | that part makes sense -- so there would be three active boxes -- actions, views, and supplementary data |
| 19:47 | owen | The staff client uses tabs on the left for alternate views, but in the OPAC we're using that space on other pages for navigation |
| 19:47 | (user links for logged-in users) | |
| 19:48 | gmcharlt | perhaps a very unobtrusive row at the very top or very bottom of the details |
| 19:49 | brb | |
| 20:18 | fbcit | chris? |
| 20:19 | chris | for a minute :) |
| 20:19 | fbcit | heh |
| 20:19 | chris | then im going to take a nap |
| 20:19 | fbcit | you'll have to fix the db number in the patch I just sent |
| 20:19 | chris | ahh yep, will do |
| 21:48 | |hdl| | owen around ? |
| 21:49 | owen | For just a few minutes |
| 21:54 | gmcharlt | chris: (if about) - please ignore the one patch email mentioning svc/new_bib -- sent by mistake, and not a proper git patch |
| 21:58 | owen | Sorry |hdl|, you lost me :) |
| 00:05 | |hdl| | kaddos around? |
| 00:05 | kados even |
