09:38 magnuse hiya mveron
09:39 Culiforge joined #koha
09:40 mveron magnuse: Question about Bug 7445 (Tagcloud and language error)
09:40 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=7445 normal, P5 - low, ---, oleonard, NEW , Clicking on a tag gives "Language ... does not exist"
09:40 magnuse shoot!
09:40 :-)
09:41 mveron I think Norwegian is the only exception for the workaround bei F Somers
09:41 magnuse that could well be
09:42 so it might make sense to incorporate what i saw as a quick and dirty fix
09:42 mveron I had a look at the languages supportet by Snoball
09:43 My proposition is to declare your "dirty hack" to a "pragmatc solution"
09:43 magnuse works for me :-)
09:44 mveron Well, would be fine to have it in one of the next releases, otherwise I have to apply the "hack" after each update :-)
09:44 * mveron somebody caling at the door
09:45 magnuse i can do a patch for my hack, and we'll see if qa shoots it down or not
10:03 paul_p joined #koha
10:09 Culiforge g'morning. I reinstalled koha on a new system and everything went smoothly and without error until I realized that apache nor zebra are starting at boot and the deb installer did not set up a mysql database as it did previously... what to do? can I/should i uninstall the koha-common package and reinstall or no?
10:12 magnuse Culiforge: the packages are not supposed to install mysql, because people might not want to run that on the same server as the rest of the system
10:12 i'm not sure about apache/zebra not starting on boot, though, that sounds... bad
10:14 Culiforge magnuse: bad? how so... I don't like bad... :(
10:18 magnuse well, they are supposed to start on boot - not sure what might be causing them not to
10:20 Culiforge magnuse: well, mysql was not installed when I first ran the koha package. I then installed mysql and reinstalled the koha package. Maybe to bold on my part.
10:23 magnuse reinstalling the koha package should not have been necessary, but it shouldn't do any damage either
10:23 mveron joined #koha
10:23 Culiforge magnuse: whew! at least that
10:24 magnuse :-)
10:24 mveron magnuse: Maybe I missed an answer. The "Pragmatic Hack Patch" would be great!
10:24 Culiforge magnuse: also I have no koha-conf.xml file.. I have koha-conf-sites.xml.in ??
10:24 kf hi mveron
10:24 mveron hi kf
10:25 Culiforge magnuse: site not site[s]
10:26 magnuse koha-conf.xml files will be created when you create sites with koha-create
10:26 koha-conf-sites.xml.in is the template that is used to create this files
10:26 s/this/those/
10:27 and they will be /etc/koha/sites/yoursitename/koha-conf.xml
10:28 Culiforge magnuse: ok, so the main problem is apache not autostarting then to run koha-create?
10:28 magnuse um, there's no connection there, i think
10:29 koha-create creates the sites for you, independently of apache
10:29 but you need apache up and running for the sites to be usable, of course
10:30 Culiforge magnuse: dang! I thought i was on to something.. but in the overall... yes.. what you said.. solve the apache starting before proceeding to ensure my koha install has no further problems...
10:32 magnuse sounds like a good plan
10:33 Culiforge magnuse: so I restart apache and get '*:80 has no virtual hosts'
10:35 magnuse ah, that's a classic
10:35 it's not a big problem, though
10:36 i think everything shoud work just fine all the same
10:37 if you have not created any sites yet it could be because of that, maybe
10:37 Culiforge magnuse: I had previously edited (insert filename I forgot here) to include :8080 as well and fixed the 'no fully qualified domain name' error
10:38 magnuse might be /etc/apache2/ports.conf
10:38 Culiforge magnuse:  yes, that's it, thank you
10:44 magnuse: sudo apt-get --reinstall install apache2? maybe?
10:44 magnuse: saw a thread in ubuntu forums where that fixed a similar problem
10:45 magnuse hm, i'm not sure actually
10:45 it shouldn't hurt though, i think...
10:46 Culiforge magnuse: I'm just afraid of running off and doing something then coming back for help and be met with "gah!!! what did you do that for???"
10:47 magnuse: sometimes I'm a ninny but I'm getting better (I hope)
10:48 magnuse hehe
10:49 you might try poking around in the logs and see if there is an error somewhere about apache not starting on boot
10:49 Culiforge magnuse: any logs in particular?
10:51 magnuse the apache log(s?) might be a start
10:51 and some kind of system log probably, but that's not my area of exprtice...
10:52 googling a little for something like "apache not starting on boot" might also be instructive
11:07 Culiforge magnuse: is there a way to see if apache is 'set' to start on boot without rebooting?
11:08 magnuse there are some hints here: http://www.howtoforge.com/foru[…]hread.php?t=14582
11:09 find /etc/rc* | grep "apache"
11:09 should give a list of things like "/etc/rc0.d/K09apache2"
11:11 Culiforge magnuse: indeed it does.. so if that's there then it should now start at boot, correct? theoretically...
11:11 magnuse theoretically, yes ;-)
11:12 Culiforge magnuse: ok.. great.. I simply reinstalled apache for that.. hopefully that was what was neccessary
11:13 magnuse fingers crossed :-)
11:14 Culiforge magnuse: quick help on koha-create syntax and I'll leave you alone.. koha-create --create-db \ 'newlibrarydatabase'?
11:15 magnuse check "man koha-create" :-)
11:15 Culiforge magnuse: righto, will do.. was looking on the wiki but didn't see any examples
11:15 magnuse but yes: sudo koha-create --create-db instancename
11:16 http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]kages#koha-create ?
11:16 Culiforge magnuse: no \.. that's what's shown on the commands in the wiki
11:16 yes
11:16 magnuse ah, that is just to say that everything should be on one line
11:16 Culiforge got it
11:17 thanks again for the help.. I gotta run for  a bit
11:17 magnuse have fun! :-)

13:20 Shane-S morning :)
13:20 slef hi Shane-S
13:20 ok, this is an odd question
13:20 kf morning oleonard .)
13:21 slef there's a field containing a reference to the database entry for an object that the book is about. Suggestions for marc tag? (Do I need jcamins_away to return?)
13:23 Shane-S Can I add amazon as a Z39.50 source?
13:23 oleonard Shane-S: I don't think so
13:23 slef Shane-S: NAFAIK but could search http://irspy.indexdata.com
13:24 magnus_afk Shane-S: only if they actually have a z39.50 server (and i don't think so)
13:24 slef I sometimes get tempted to reply to librarians that ask stuff like this that they made their catalogue and marc21 was defined by other librarians, so please stop putting us engineers to mediate between two groups of librarians ;)
13:25 janPasi is koha ok with 64 bit debian?
13:25 slef janPasi: yes
13:25 magnus_afk janPasi: yup
13:26 Shane-S I am having a hard time locating a "Green Eggs and Ham" book, why I ask, as catalog.nypl.org isn't working
13:26 * slef ponders using 650$a and 650$2 yet again.
13:26 kf slef: I would love to help you with the marc -but I don't undestand the question
13:26 do you have an example?
13:26 janPasi perfect, thanks slef and magnus_afk :)
13:26 slef kf: the examples are just stuff like 6741
13:26 kf Shane-S: try loc
13:27 6741??
13:27 slef kf: but then they can look 6741 up in the other database to get details on the artefact that the book mentions.
13:27 kf hm
13:27 but it's not a direct link?
13:27 slef seems a very old-fashioned system to me
13:27 nah, just a pointer
13:27 kf and it doesnot have an authority record?
13:28 slef oooh it should, shouldn't it?
13:28 kf if they plan to use authorities for 650 I would put it in 653
13:28 it's for uncontrolled terms
13:28 @marc 653
13:28 huginn kf: An index term added entry that is not constructed by standard subject heading/thesaurus-building conventions. (Repeatable) [a,6,8]
13:28 kf that's where I put stuff that will not fit anywhere else
13:28 but there might also be a footnote you could use maybe
13:29 matts_ joined #koha
13:29 slef I'll bounce it back and see if they'll use the other database as authority records. Thanks for the idea.
13:29 kf slef: and it will still show up as clickable link in the opac
13:34 jcamins_away kf: database errors don't sound good. :(
13:34 slef: did you figure out which field you needed?
13:35 slef jcamins_away: bouncing it back for them to decide if the other db will be loaded as authorities
13:35 jcamins_away: pondering 650$a or 653$a depending on their answer
13:36 jcamins_away slef: Ah. That makes sense.
13:36 kf jcamins_away: it was missing a bibliocovers table - I was wondering if I missed the update of if there was a bug with it
13:36 jcamins_away: only saw it while I was checking for errors on another patch
13:37 slef: I think the mailinglist didn't work - I never got any mail :(
13:37 jcamins_away Sounds like you missed the update.
13:38 slef kf: your address is on there. Hrm, it should have mailed you. I will email it again this week.
13:38 kf slef: sorry for having a stubborn email address
13:40 Shane-S what adding a record, it follows up with an "Add Item" screen, the barcode field has ... but it does nothing, how do I make that work?
13:41 oleonard Shane-S: Do you have any items in your database yet?
13:42 Shane-S not sure, just imported a z39.50 and add an item
13:43 oleonard I'm guessing that you don't have any items in your database yet, and thus the auto-incrementing barcode plugin doesn't find any existing barcode to increment
13:43 kf or it's not activaed
13:43 by default
13:44 the system preference is Autobarcode I think
13:44 Shane-S ah okay, I will look around more...my tutorial ended without cataloging, so I have to search the wiki more
13:45 magnus_afk documentation?
13:45 wahanui documentation is at http://koha-community.org/documentation/
13:46 magnus_afk Shane-S: not just the wiki, there's a manual too ;-)
14:05 edveal joined #koha
14:06 Shane-S I tried that...didn't find an answer...so I imported 1960's Dr.Seuss Green Eggs from Lib. Cong. added 2 required fields, added 1 item...now I search the cataloging for "green" or "seuss" and get no results found...that a zebra issue?

14:29 is anyone aware of a problem with batch item delete in master currently?
14:30 Shane-S now i really need help.... http://pastebin.com/bMvHZwXf
14:31 trea what do you see when you type "env"
14:31 Shane-S:
14:32 Shane-S any specific segment you want?
14:32 jcamins_away Shane-S: you need tos et the environment variables PERL5LIB and KOHA_CONF.

14:34 chris_n what date "usually" goes in 260$c?
14:34 oleonard The copyright date
14:35 chris_n my catalogers thank you :-)
14:37 oleonard jcamins_away: Why can't I get my authorities to re-index properly? Is this right? /home/oleonard/kohaclone/misc/m​igration_tools/rebuild_zebra.pl -a -r -v
14:40 Shane-S oleonard: my rebuild_zebra.pl was in /usr/share/koha/bin/migration_tools/, docs have <path/to/koha>/misc/migration_tools/
14:40 I used locate to find mine
14:40 jcamins_away oleonard: that looks right, yes. What's it doing when you run that?
14:41 oleonard: are you getting an error, or just no results when searching?
14:41 oleonard jcamins_away: The problem is that I'm trying to delete one and it continues to show up in search results
14:42 jcamins_away oleonard: odd. And deleting the authority worked prior to the patch for 7284?
14:43 * oleonard doesn't even know anymore!
14:43 wizzyrea oleonard: there's something up with deletes in master I think
14:43 jcamins_away Ah, that would explain it.
14:44 wizzyrea i don't have direct evidence yet
14:44 but it's the first thing i'm going to look at this morning
14:44 * jcamins_away didn't know that.
14:44 wizzyrea jcamins_away: that's not surprising
14:44 jcamins_away And after that, wizzyrea is going to look at 7284, too. It'll be a 7284 party on #koha today. Woohoo!
14:44 wizzyrea :)
14:44 * jcamins_away brings out the saltine chocolate toffee bark.
14:45 jcamins_away Shari eats it all.
14:45 * oleonard has moved on to the 7284 after-party, Bug 7310
14:45 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=7310 normal, P3, ---, m.de.rooy, Needs Signoff , Improving permissions on lists (virtual shelves)

14:46 jcamins_away oleonard: ooh, yeah, that's a good one. But not quite as good as 7284 IMHO. ;)
14:46 kf jcamins_away: yum!
14:46 chris_n: you will want to put it in one of the 00x fields too - so the search works
14:47 wizzyrea confirmed that at least batch delete for items throws a "undefined sub &C4::Search::SimpleSearch
14:47 "
14:47 what's the error you're getting oleonard
14:47 chris_n kf: which?
14:47 * jcamins_away is sure that's not caused by 7284.
14:47 wizzyrea right, i am too
14:47 jcamins_away slef: see kf's message for chris_n.
14:48 chris_n: pretty sure kf's message was for slef. ;)
14:48 oleonard wizzyrea: I'm not getting any error at all from deleting an authority record.
14:48 * jcamins_away runs to catch the bus.
14:49 slef hrm
14:50 talljoy joined #koha
14:51 wizzyrea right, because C4::Search was removed from Items.pm, or removed from a module that referenced it
14:51 Shane-S trying to set PERL5LIB...using http://modperlbook.org/html/3-[…]ent-variable.html but not sure what I am doing...reading I should edit /etc/environment but not clear on my perl path
14:51 wizzyrea at least that's as best I can gather.

14:52 paul_p wizzyrea yes ?
14:52 (good morning)
14:52 oleonard Part of C4 de-nesting wizzyrea?
14:52 chris_n hi paul_p
14:52 wizzyrea that's what I suspect
14:52 magnus_afk re bug 7577 - i thought OPACViewOthersSuggestions would take care of that sort of thing...
14:52 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=7577 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, jonathan.druart, ASSIGNED , Suggestion show page
14:52 wizzyrea paul_p, in batch delete, I think one of the de-nesting patches broke it: Undefined subroutine &C4::Search::SimpleSearch called at /home/liz/kohaclone/C4/Items.pm line 2464.
14:52 * wizzyrea will add it to the bug
14:52 * chris_n wonders if de-nesting is the same thing that occurs when one collects eggs from the chicken-house
14:56 magnus_afk ah, it's for the intranet. then i still wonder what OPACViewOthersSuggestions is supposed to do
14:56 Shane-S http://www.perlhowto.com/exten[…]_the_library_path seems a little more clear...where do I point KOHA_CONF /etc/koha/sites/<mysite>/koha_conf.xml?
14:56 druthb joined #koha
14:57 druthb o/
14:57 wizzyrea oh, paul_p, I bet that's related to srdjan's report
14:57 * wizzyrea missed that
14:58 magnus_afk Shane-S: are you running off the packages? then there are commands to handle most things for you
14:58 http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]e_Debian_packages
14:58 druthb chris_n: Did you get my note yesterday about bug 7535?
14:58 magnus_afk Shane-S: but yes, KOHA_CONF should be the location of your koha_conf.xml
14:58 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=7535 minor, P5 - low, ---, ruth, Pushed to Master , OPAC displays ampersands incorrectly.
15:00 Shane-S magnus_afk: yep I am, I will try that first :) TY!
15:03 chris_n druthb: pushed
15:03 magnus_afk Shane-S: you can also do e.g. "man koha-rebuild-zebra" to get documentation for the commands (might be more up to date than the wiki)
15:03 druthb Groovy!  Thanks, chris_n.
15:04 kf chris_n asked abut 260$c copyright date - and the pub date reange search in opac requires that to be in one of the 00x fields too
15:04 so was for chris_n :)
15:04 a pointer because his catalogers will get annoyed if search does not work
15:04 and I always forget the exact field
15:05 Shane-S magnus_afk: I don't see a mention of cron in man or wiki, does it do that or can I just setup a cron for koha-rebuild-zebra vs rebuild_zebra.pl?
15:07 magnus_afk the packages set up the crons for you
15:07 Shane-S: have a look in /etc/cron.d/koha-common
15:08 Shane-S hmm...no, but I will. Cause the book appeared when I ran the rebuid, but wasn't coming up before
15:08 magnus_afk Shane-S: how long did you wait?
15:09 Shane-S: i think the default interval for rebuild_zebra is 5 minutes
15:09 chris_n kf: 008 perhaps?
15:09 @marc 008
15:09 huginn chris_n: This field contains 40 character positions (00-39) that provide coded information about the record as a whole and about special bibliographic aspects of the item being cataloged. These coded data elements are potentially useful for retrieval and data management purposes. []
15:10 magnus_afk Shane-S: yup, the default is 5 minutes: http://git.koha-community.org/[…]8378fbfe4;hb=HEAD you can change that in /etc/cron.d/koha-common
15:10 Shane-S magnus_afk: yep set to 5...I will change it for now, as its a single test machine
15:10 Thank you
15:10 magnus_afk Shane-S: no problem!
15:13 Shane-S now to test it out :P
15:14 this has been a HUGE learning curve for me :P

15:14 magnus_afk hey, did i mention recently that the packages are awesome? they are! :-)

15:15 magnus_afk chris_n: yeah, a little bit, at the edinburgh military tatoo, of all places
15:15 chris_n they are fantastic
15:16 magnus_afk chris_n: not my cup of tea, but yeah, they do well in competitions it seems
15:16 Shane-S magnus_afk: yeah, I tried installing Koha 1 or 2 years ago and quit was too hard...got evergreen installed instead..but hated their external XP librarian client

15:17 chris_n magnus_afk: yeah, I was watching a video of one of their performances
15:18 definitely; for those interested in that sort of thing
15:18 magnus_afk chris_n: :-)

15:37 alaquerre Good morning. @wizzyrea - I find out how the column object is set to empty in action_logs.  This can occur when you try to return a book that is already return.  The weird problem is it also take a wrong biblionumber to put in the "info"  column.  In my case, it take a biblionumber return 1 minutes befores.  Look like it's cache problem..
15:37 jcamins_away Heh.
15:37 alaquerre But I have another question.
15:38 :-) Does longoverdue.pl should always return the document or only set the item to the Lost value provided ?

15:42 Shane-S hmm looks like crontab isn't running, there an easy way to check if it is enabled?
15:44 wizzyrea Shane-S: crontab -e would look at your currently installed crontabs for the current user
15:45 the example crontabs are in misc/cronjobs/crontab.example
15:45 sorry, /path/to/your/koha/misc/cronjobs/crontab.example
15:46 Shane-S there is a koha-comma file in /etc/cron.d/, and I adjusted the time down to 2 minutes but it isn't rebuilding zebra
15:46 showing cron is running as PID 1105
15:46 wizzyrea oh, packages.

15:47 wizzyrea re: zebra
15:47 Shane-S let me check...
15:47 seems more like it isn't running the file, because when I manually did koha-update-zebra my book appeared
15:48 slef anything in your cron logs, any emails from cron in your mailbox, is mail working, ...?
15:49 Shane-S zebra-error.log has no errors for today...as per email I never set that up..looking more
15:50 slef zebra-error.log is for the zebrasrv not the cron job
15:50 you'll need email set up else some stuff won't work
15:50 overdue notices and cron job deaths most importantly
15:50 oleonard Is embedding [% IF %] inside an HTML tag still a no-no for translations or have we fixed that?
15:51 slef if you really don't want/can't have full mail, there was a script on http://planet.debian.org a few days ago
15:52 Shane-S yeah, not sure i can have full mail, no mail server in the building, all outsourced to google

16:10 julian_m troublemaker, not sure, but it seems that you need to set the PERL5LIB env var
16:11 troublemaker im running ....../tmpl_process3.pl and create a ne folder for the spanish translation with the PO files
16:12 then i got the error
16:14 im running the script such as it           ../tmpl_process3.pl install -i .../intranet/htdocs/intranet-tmpl/prog/en/ -o /.../.../koha36installx/intranet​/htdocs/intranet-tmpl/prog/es-MX -s /home/.../es-ES-i-staff-t-prog-v-3006000.po -r
16:15 oleonard Is it typical that running prove t/db_dependent returns several failures?
16:16 troublemaker how can i set the PERL5LIB?
16:16 slef oleonard: shouldn't be, surely?
16:16 troublemaker: put PERL5LIB=path/to/C4 at the start of the line.
16:16 troublemaker: or run export PERL5LIB=path/to/C4

16:22 oleonard Ah so, that's who has been deleting all my virtual shelves! It was t/db_dependent!
16:22 Shane-S okay think i found the issue if I run koha-rebuild-zebra <mysite> it updates, the cron just has $(koha-list --enabled) anyone know where that pulls from?
16:23 troublemaker thanx ill try
16:23 chris_n oleonard: db_dependent tests should be considered db-destructive :-)
16:24 oleonard chris_n: So it's normal?
16:25 chris_n well, those tests perform writes/reads/deletes in various forms to the db
16:25 so really anything is "normal"
16:25 oleonard Okay, fair enough. I'm new to such things.
16:25 chris_n its been a long time since I looked at the virtual shelves tests, so I could not suggest what to expect there
16:26 oleonard What about the failures chris_n? Do you think I should not be seeing any?
16:26 aarkerio joined #koha
16:26 chris_n it is not recommended to run that test suite on a production or otherwise important db
16:26 oleonard: I think that they should pass when running over a clean install of the sample data with 3.6.x or master
16:26 * chris_n knows they pass on 3.6.x
16:27 chris_n now as for the validity of the tests, I cannot vouch to that
16:28 Shane-S is it bad if I have 2 folders in /etc/koha/sites and one is empty?
16:28 chris_n ie. some may pass, which should not
16:28 but that would be a bug and should be filed as such I think
16:30 troublemaker last time i export the PERL5LIB i got an opac error....do i have to export this to c4 folder without running the PO FILE¡?
16:37 still gettin the same error after running the translate
16:37 BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at TmplTokenizer.pm line 5.
16:39 jcamins_away troublemaker: I would guess that you upgraded from 3.2, and do not have Template::Toolkit installed (libtemplate-perl on Debian).
16:40 troublemaker: however, you need to actually provide the entire error message for more help troubleshooting.
16:41 troublemaker nop its not an upgrade, i ve install it fresh
16:41 jcamins troublemaker: how did you install it?
16:41 (packages?, etc.?)
16:41 Shane-S anyone familiar with /usr/sbin/koha-list?
16:42 troublemaker OK guys this is the full error
16:42 Can't locate C4/TmplTokenType.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /home/www/koha36installx/lib/C4 /etc/perl /usr/local/lib/perl/5.14.2 /usr/local/share/perl/5.14.2 /usr/lib/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/perl/5.14 /usr/share/perl/5.14 /usr/local/lib/site_perl .) at TmplTokenizer.pm line 5. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at TmplTokenizer.pm line 5. Compilation fail
16:42 jcamins troublemaker: in that case the problem is that you didn't set PERL5LIB properly.
16:42 It should be set to /home/www/koha36installx/lib
16:42 (without the /C4 at the end)
16:42 Shane-S: the first question?
16:42 wahanui well, the first question is "What are you trying to do?"
16:43 jcamins :)
16:44 Shane-S well it doesn't seem to work, it is used in the cron.d file
16:44 if I manually run koha-rebuild-zebra npslibrary , zebra rebuilds, so I have narrowed my issue down to the cron.d koha-common file
16:44 jcamins Odd.
16:45 What happens if you run sudo koha-list --enabled
16:46 Shane-S i get a grep error for /etc/apache2/sites-available/nationalpark: No such file or directory
16:46 then I get my 2 sites... nationalpark and npslibrary
16:46 jcamins Hm.
16:46 Shane-S should i remove /etc/koha/sites/nationalpark?
16:46 jcamins Yes.
16:47 It sounds like a koha-remove was aborted in the middle?
16:47 Shane-S kk it unused anyway
16:47 I remember typing that during the web setup...but then I got a session time-out error and had to restart
16:47 troublemaker yeah it works
16:47 almost done
16:47 just got 1 more error

16:58 Shane-S ah okay :P
16:58 jcamins troublemaker: you can't use a 3.4 translation on a 3.6 installation.
16:58 Or, rather, you *can*, but you shouldn't.
16:58 Shane-S have to fix that, it imported from the Z39.50 record

17:09 wizzyrea oh, sorry
17:09 that would be in Master
17:09 you can't do it in 3.6
17:09 Shane-S really...hack to do it?
17:10 we are an elementary school....kids need pictures
17:10 all this works goes out the window without that *cries*
17:10 eternalsword I actually needed to add a column to the borrowers table for the externalid value coming from our external database system.  I would have just put that value in borrowernumber, but apparently you can't explicitly set an AUTOINCREMENT field.  Anyways, I'm working on packaging my changes into the source, so how do I need to set the $DBversion parameter in updatedatabase.pl?
17:11 oleonard Shane-S: Administration -> System Preferences -> Enhanced Content
17:11 You can set up book cover images from Amazon.com, Google, Open Library, and paid sources
17:13 eternalsword I guess I need to upgrade to the git version and then use the latest stable version as the value?
17:14 Shane-S oleonard: awesome worked for 1...assume it pulls via ISBN?
17:14 oleonard Shane-S: Yes.
17:14 Shane-S alright thanks!
17:14 oleonard Shane-S: And thus problematic for items with no ISBN like DVDs
17:14 eternalsword: Could you use extended patron attributes instead?
17:15 Shane-S oleonard: is there a way to specify the thumbnail size? I see it is larger on Google the Koha
17:15 then*
17:16 oleonard Shane-S: No
17:18 Shane-S Amazon OPAC require that key? It isn't working, Google did though
17:18 oleonard Amazon covers shouldn't require a key

17:21 Shane-S that is different...can you list mulptiple ISBN's?
17:22 troublemaker http://universidadinsurgentesd[…]iomethods.com:66/
17:22 now ill try to change the basket title from MAPA, to CARRITO....
17:22 oleonard Shane-S: MARC allows you to enter more than one ISBN but I'm pretty sure the OPAC pulls from the first one listed.
17:23 Shane-S oleonard: Great, thanks! would I just duplicate 020?
17:23 oleonard Yes
17:23 luisb joined #koha
17:23 Shane-S cool, that way we can have alternates in there for lookup/purchase
17:34 I'll stick to ISBN based for now :P
17:34 jcamins That's a very good idea.
17:35 Shane-S how does it pick if I do Amazon, Google, Open Library, and the Sym/n one?
17:35 jcamins Shane-S: it uses all of them.
17:35 eternalsword oleonard: looking now.
17:36 jcamins So you end up with 4 images (or four "no image found" boxes).
17:36 Shane-S Ah
17:36 jcamins kmkale is working on a prioritization thing. It has a bug.
17:37 (I mean, in the tracker)
17:37 bug 7187
17:37 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=7187 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, kmkale, NEW , Prioritize cover image sources such as Amazon, Google and add fail over i.e. if first source fails, go to next
17:37 * oleonard thinks that's going to be a bear to solve
17:38 * jcamins agrees.
17:38 would try if kmkale decided not to work on it, and someone were interested in paying for it, but not otherwise.
17:42 oleonard jcamins: That was a medium-sized "if" followed by a very big "if" :)
17:45 jcamins oleonard: right. It is my belief that the two together are sufficient to protect me from the need to follow through. :P
17:46 eternalsword oleonard, unfortunately no.  I need to use the externalid as the parameter for lookup with exists_local in order to get the borrowernumber.  I do this since the external system allows changing the userid.  To use extended attributes, I would need borrowernumber first, which would eliminate my need to use externalid at all.
17:47 * chris_n holds his breath on that one
17:49 Shane-S okay so I want to change the images to have borders and padding and I noticed CSS ID of id="gbs-thumbnail1" and such, seems it increments, is there a file I can edit the code?
17:49 tcohen joined #koha
17:49 Shane-S or a way to add an addition class to the incremental loop
17:49 jcamins Shane-S: don't. Use OpacUserCSS.
17:49 Shane-S: modifying the templates directly leads to a world of hurt. Just ask wizzyrea.
17:50 Shane-S okay, but there is no consistent class or id
17:51 jcamins Shane-S: in that case, I suggest you submit a patch that provides a consistent class.
17:52 oleonard Shane-S: It looks like you've got the class "p1" on the <a> tag which wraps the image
17:52 Shane-S I want each one with a border and spacing, right now they touch/blend
17:52 I will give it a shot with nested CSS
17:53 oleonard Each one?
17:53 Shane-S see if I can do it, but it might NOT work... such as a.p1 div
17:54 jcamins Shane-S: it seems to me that should work.
17:57 Shane-S yep that did...but now I have to sort the width of the div out :P
17:57 eternalsword div inside a paragraph tag? that doesn't seem right
17:57 Shane-S its not so lovely
17:57 eternalsword I mean, inside a tag
17:58 Shane-S <-- does it all the time with <ul><li> to make dynamic CSS based lists
17:59 oleonard eternalsword: No, it's not right (as in valid)
17:59 That particular page has accumulated a lot of validation problems
17:59 eternalsword what exactly is the purpose of the div?
17:59 oleonard It's a hook for dynamically loading the Google cover image
18:00 It could probably just as easily be a <span>
18:00 Shane-S words outta my mouth
18:00 nengard left #koha
18:00 Shane-S div serv no purpose, though I am gonna try floating them now :D
18:01 then a div serves a purpose
18:01 spans are not supposed to be "block" level if I remember correctly
18:01 oleonard A div can serve any purpose we choose--that's what makes them so useful (as long as we use them in a valid way)
18:01 eternalsword Is there text with it too?  If not, why not just inject into the <a> directly?  If it's a matter of block level, just use display:block on the anchor.
18:02 Shane-S one anchor -> multiple divs, hence nested inside the and anchor
18:02 stupid little chat box :P
18:03 eternalsword that seems even worse.
18:03 nengard joined #koha
18:03 Shane-S why would you want to bloat it with 4 anchors and 4 divs?
18:03 eternalsword does the anchor not actually link to anything?  or is it used for some onclick?
18:04 Shane-S anchors to the single biblio record for the item
18:04 if you enable all 4 book cover image sources they all link to the book's detail page on the OPAC results page
18:05 eternalsword not good ui as blank space between the items would still be clickable.
18:06 Shane-S my margin isn't
18:06 playing with it now though...the width looks to be my issue...hoping float will work.
18:07 sweet got rid of stacking! no crappy border going across either
18:08 gotta love CSS (and that at least I know that :D )
18:08 I might allow you guys to see it, just need to setup uPnP forwarding
18:09 troublemaker anybody coudl send me some cool css template for OPAC'?
18:09 :)
18:09 eternalsword Shane-S, if you float, the blank horizontal space between I believe will be clickable.  If not in your browser, you may want to do cross-browser testing.
18:10 by the spec, it should be clickable anyways.
18:10 jcamins troublemaker: I like mine, but it's rather involved. http://demo.cplibraries.com/

18:18 eternalsword: it appears in FFx 10.1 margins are not "clickable"

18:21 (it took a while to time out)
18:22 rangi Morning
18:22 troublemaker JCAMINS your template is cool!
18:23 jcamins Morning.
18:23 troublemaker: glad you like it. :)
18:23 cait good morning rangi :)
18:23 rangi Library.hauraki-dc.govt.nz
18:23 Shane-S hmm I will have to check the apache conf on my ticket system and see if the Koha once isn't set to respond to it
18:23 troublemaker so where i can get it
18:23 wahanui so it is probably not ibot's morning.
18:24 jcamins troublemaker: you can crib it off the OPAC. The main bit is cpbibliography.css.
18:25 And then there's a bit of javascript in opacuserjs.
18:25 Note that it's probably not IE-friendly.
18:25 And replacing opac.css is probably not recommended.
18:26 Unfortunately, FF has a bug in its CSS override handling, so that was a much easier option.
18:26 troublemaker so how do i put this on my own opac without errors :)
18:27 jcamins troublemaker: download the CSS file, set that CSS file in opacstylesheet.
18:27 cait which is a system preference under administration :)
18:27 jcamins Right.
18:28 troublemaker perfect man!
18:28 ill try it
18:28 pastebot "jcamins" at 98.14.163.79 pasted "troublemaker: opacuserjs" (48 lines) at http://paste.koha-community.org/270
18:28 jcamins ^^ and put that stuff in opacuserjs.
18:28 There are also some images involved, which you'll want to replace.
18:29 troublemaker yeah
18:29 jcamins (unless you want to brand your OPAC "C & P," in which case you'll need to license it:P)
18:29 troublemaker well im guessin if you could send me in one zip the JS and CSS files please
18:29 to my email
18:30 you guys here in kohachat're really nice
18:30 jcamins You can just download it off the OPAC.
18:30 Shane-S wonder if it is a firewall setting on Ubuntu Desktop...the other system works and it is running server
18:30 jcamins It's just the one file.
18:30 (cpbibliography.css)
18:31 troublemaker and opacuserjs?
18:31 jcamins I pasted it.
18:31 opacuserjs is a syspref.
18:31 You just copy the contents of the paste into the box.
18:37 troublemaker ok you guys tell me im a noob but....
18:37 where i get the cpbibliography.css
18:38 jcamins Just download it off the OPAC.
18:38 chris_n cait: actually it looks like 260$c is indexed as copydate
18:38 troublemaker ok how
18:38 jcamins I don't know the exact path, but if you look at the source, you'll find a reference to it somewhere.
18:38 chris_n melm 260$c      copydate,copydate:s
18:38 cait chris_n: there is a different between the search option and the date range search in advanced search
18:38 oh
18:38 an sorting
18:39 chris_n ahh
18:39 looks like most of our 008 fields have empty chars in 7-10
18:39 so the pain is probably already there
18:40 troublemaker oki
18:40 then where i should use this http://paste.koha-community.org/270
18:40 it was for me right?
18:40 chris_n well, that's not entirely true
18:41 just records they've created locally
18:41 jcamins chris_n: yeah, copydate vs. pubdate is idiotic.
18:41 chris_n: what's the question?
18:41 cait chris_n: probably but good to know for new records
18:41 * jcamins missed the beginning of the conversation.
18:41 jcamins chris_n: yeah, that's pretty common.
18:41 Yes.
18:41 chris_n: I thought you were saying not to use opacuserjs. :(
18:41 You put that in the opacuserjs syspref.
18:41 (System Administration->System Preferences->OPAC)
18:41 chris_n: sure you do.
18:41 chris_n: just ignore me please.
18:41 chris_n seems koha should automagically copy 206$c into 008
18:41 rangi My stop bbiab
18:41 jcamins chris_n: there's a complication.
18:41 chris_n jcamins: you're too important to ignore :-)
18:42 jcamins The data you enter in 008/07-10 is not the same as what you enter in 260$c.
18:42 Though if your catalogers are not putting the date in 008/07-10, chances are they're not using the more complicated options for 260$c.
18:43 So you'd probably be fine finding the 4-digit year and just copying it over.
18:43 * jcamins goes to eat lunch, in the hopes that food will make him more coherent.
18:43 cait good luck!
18:43 chris_n they're just putting copyright date into 260$c
18:44 so that would equate to a 't' in 008 char 6, right?
18:44 cait t?
18:44 * chris_n is very poor when it comes to MARC
18:44 chris_n cait: see http://www.loc.gov/marc/bibliographic/bd008a.html
18:44 t - Publication date and copyright date
18:44 cait ah
18:44 jcamins chris_n: probably s.
18:44 cait probably
18:44 or is
18:45 I think koha doesn't care
18:45 jcamins chris_n: because t means that you have to fill out both copyright *and* publication date.
18:45 I'd go with s.
18:45 * jcamins really goes for lunch. :)
18:48 chris_n s does make more sense
18:48 * chris_n wonders how hard it will be to get the catalogers to do this
18:48 chris_n thanks cait and jcamins
18:54 rangi back
18:57 slef chris_n: threaten to make up a new set of cataloguing rules for title fields.
18:57 that'll scare them into line
18:58 * jcamins returns.
18:58 Shane-S jcamins: I got the URL working now
18:58 I never hit "enable" on the my routers uPnP settings :P
18:59 jcamins Shane-S: that does look better.
18:59 nengard joined #koha
18:59 jcamins Nifty. :)
19:00 Shane-S I didn't see covers on your site, there a reason (or bad search on my part)?
19:01 jcamins Shane-S: none of the records in that demo would have covers in any external databases, and I haven't gotten around to uploading example cover images.
19:02 Shane-S ah, well I made that pastebin never delete if you ever want that code to use.
19:03 mib_n3qschuster joined #koha
19:03 jcamins Shane-S: thanks. :)
19:04 Shane-S can anyone direct me to the script/file that creates the OPAC table? I would like to divisionize it to allow it to be fully customized ...IE books on the right or left, via float
19:05 jcamins Shane-S: the template is opac-results.tt.
19:06 Shane-S: I'm not sure you can't do that via javascript and CSS, though.
19:07 schuster joined #koha
19:08 jcamins We should probably use CSS for the results table anyway, shouldn't we?
19:08 * jcamins looks to oleonard for words of wisdom on that subject.
19:08 oleonard Hunh? Wha?
19:08 chris_n slef: lol
19:08 troublemaker opac for my friend aarkerio
19:08 http://decodic.incan.edu.mx/
19:09 simple and nice
19:10 jcamins oleonard: should we really be using CSS for the results table rather than <table>?
19:10 oleonard It would be nice if the OPAC used a more modern and flexible grid system. Then the results could be a nested grid instead of a table and column swapping would be easier.
19:10 * jcamins isn't proposing to change it, just wondering if that's what we _should_ be doing.
19:10 * chris_n wonders why no one seems to customize the layers on the cart buttons so that the rounded corners appear to match their background
19:10 * jcamins did.
19:11 jcamins Oh, then I got rid of the button entirely.
19:11 oleonard chris_n: Because it's difficult I suppose. Or they haven't ready my blog post about it. Or both.
19:11 jcamins And decided to use CSS3 rounded corners because I don't care that much about old browsers.

19:14 maximep is it only in french that the translate scripts removes all newlines ?
19:14 as usual can't find a bug aobut it
19:14 cait what kind of newlines?
19:15 do you have an example with a problem?
19:15 maximep opac-sendbasket.tt
19:15 <SUBJECT>
19:15 Mon dossier<END_SUBJECT>
19:15 missing newling befpore the end.. so send basket doesn't work at all on 3.6 for us
19:15 cait let me check
19:15 I am not aware of a general problem
19:16 there was some problem with spaces
19:16 but that was fixed... not sure in which version though :(
19:16 maximep really ? hmmm, since 3.6 we lost all newlines in all our fr-CA templates
19:16 cait thought 3.6
19:16 maximep and sendbask seems to use regex that expects \n
19:17 Shane-S can I access the single files anywhere? I like my script editor on my mac, but only want that opac-results.tt to look at
19:17 cait maximep: not sure I really get it
19:17 maximep well is your opac-sendbasket.tt in 42 lines or in 8
19:17 in other languages
19:18 jcamins Shane-S: I *strongly* recommend you use git, if you're going to be editing the templates.
19:18 *STRONGLY*!
19:18 maximep git is your best friend =)
19:19 jcamins Indeed.
19:19 Shane-S no clue how to use git, and I just want to "look" at it legibly to see if it is ever worth editing...then I might consider git, that is a package manager right?
19:19 cait maximep: how do the newlines look like? in po?
19:19 maximep: are those \n?
19:20 maximep in po ?
19:20 i dont understand
19:20 cait you said it was a problem with the translaton scripts?
19:20 maximep yes
19:20 cait can you perhaps paste the code?
19:20 maximep what code ?
19:20 wahanui code is, like, kept at git.koha-community.org
19:20 cait the problematic code, the english and the french version
19:21 maximep any template, really
19:21 cait ?
19:21 so oyur templates are all on one line?
19:22 maximep almost
19:22 jcamins Shane-S: git is a version control system.
19:23 Shane-S: http://git.koha-community.org/[…]11ccbd04d;hb=HEAD
19:24 Shane-S jcamins: thank you, how did you do that, I kept getting stats
19:24 cait maximep: that sounds weird
19:26 jcamins Shane-S: yeah, that took me a while to figure out. On the far right there's a column of "tree" links.
19:26 I clicked on the tree link for koha.git.
19:29 maximep but I can't be the only one not using en that has that problem :/
19:30 rangi en-NZ and mi-NZ dont have that problem .. nor does de afaik
19:31 jcamins maximep: you're on a fork of 3.6.0, right? I'm not sure that many libraries adopted 3.6.0.
19:33 schuster jcamins still having problems when I when to edit or add a record today.  I "stashed" my git for the bug and went to master and was able to edit/create a record there.
19:33 maximep yeah... I bet most translations of 3.6 are really behind
19:33 schuster I'm going to eat lunch be back in about 20 minutes.
19:33 cait maximep: let me check something
19:33 maximep rangi: really ? juste did a ./translate install fr-FR to test and I get the same. Templates without newlines in them

19:35 jcamins cait: speaking of which, you should update your de translation, since it's out of date and missing the latest sysprefs. :P
19:35 cait jcamins:  :P
19:35 maximep ok, will update everything in misc/translator to latest 3.6.3 to see
19:35 cait yeah I have to, I normally only update when I test some translations... stupid browser detection
19:36 jcamins Heh. Maybe it needs to be possible to disable browser detection?
19:37 slef browser detection should always be overridable
19:37 rangi i hate that stupid browser detection crap
19:43 maximep nope, no luck. Nothing was really changed in those scripts since 3.6.0. Maybe it's the locale of my system... I really have no idea
19:43 cait can you try installing german?
19:43 and check that?
19:43 de-DE
19:44 jcamins maximep: try checking out 3.6.3 on the same machine, and see if the translate works for that?
19:44 maximep cait: same for all languages
19:45 jcamins: will try
19:45 * chris_n carefully reverts all de-nesting related code from 3.6.x
19:45 chris_n what a ride
19:46 jcamins chris_n: oh, yeah, don't de-nest 3.6.x.
19:46 chris_n that code is super-unstable
19:46 jcamins Yup.
19:46 * chris_n goes off to examin the QA trail
19:47 * jcamins tested a bunch of them individually, but didn't realize that they would interact.
19:47 jcamins And it was a situation where any *one* module could be de-nested, but if you nested two, suddenly lots of strange things broke.
19:48 chris_n de-nesting is one of those large projects which really must be done and tested entirely before committing
19:48 as much as we would like the "bite sized piece" approach for large projects this one is like doing heart surgery
19:48 jcamins Well, 3.8.x is known to be unstable.
19:49 chris_n and may be for a long time
19:49 rangi actually i think it would be easier the other way chris_n
19:49 one module at a time
19:49 pushed
19:49 and tested
19:49 then another don
19:49 e
19:49 chris_n rangi: right, but "tested" is the operative word there
19:49 rangi the fact that a pile were pushed at once is the major problem
19:49 * chris_n questions the extent of testing in this case
19:49 rangi it makes tracking problems nightmarishly hard
19:49 chris_n jcamins: we also agreed to keep master stable as much as possible
19:50 by using QA branches
19:50 jcamins chris_n: agreed, but at least everyone using it knows that there *could* be instability.
19:50 chris_n there was a lack of through testing in this case imho
19:50 Shane-S I think I can make opac-results.tt table-less...might give it a shot
19:50 jcamins Shane-S: use git!
19:50 chris_n: without a doubt.
19:51 Shane-S is that n automated response to file names?
19:51 jcamins Shane-S: no, but that's a good idea. We should train our bot wahanui to say that. :)
19:53 Shane-S well I am gonna use the file I have now and try it out first :P
19:54 jcamins Shane-S: don't say I didn't warn you-!
19:54 maximep looks like it's somehow a .po problem. The one we imported from 3.2 is correct, but not the one based on 3.6. So frustrating :/
19:55 cait maximep: we have 5 libraries on 3.6.3 with german now - no problems reported
19:55 maximep ok thanks, glad it's only a problem for me
19:55 cait bet you are not really glad ;
19:55 ;)
19:55 but hope you can find out what the problem is soon
19:55 maximep no, not really haha
19:56 Shane-S I don't understand what git is does/how to edit  :P
19:57 jcamins Shane-S: it's a version control system.
19:57 git?
19:57 wahanui somebody said git was http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]Control_Using_Git
19:57 jcamins ^^ read that. :)
19:57 oleonard Shane-S: It's overkill if you just want to be trying stuff out, but if you're interested in contributing code it's pretty much required.
19:57 jcamins Shane-S: and if you want to keep your changes, it's pretty much required.
19:58 Shane-S: and if you want people to offer feedback, it's de rigeur.
19:58 (yes! I just used the phrase "de rigeur" in conversation!)
19:58 maximep we don't even use it in french :p
19:59 jcamins maximep: well I get double points then!

20:12 I'm not sure why I don't have that problem, but open up C4/Heading.pm
20:12 schuster Yep
20:12 jcamins Search for "SearchAuthorities"
20:12 wahanui joined #koha
20:12 schuster Yep
20:12 Shane-S if I used the packages can I still use git?
20:12 jcamins I believe that's inside an if statement.
20:13 If it's inside an if statement, on the line after the if( ... ) add "require C4::AuthorityMarc;"
20:13 If it's not inside an if statement, put the "require C4::AuthorityMarc;" right before the SearchAuthorities.
20:13 oleonard http://www.screencast.com/t/1jshtzrGk9x One is the current version, one is the all-CSS(3) version
20:14 schuster just a minute
20:15 ok Yep
20:16 jcamins Wait, typo.
20:16 C4::AuthoritiesMarc
20:16 Notice the plural.
20:16 Does it work now?
20:17 It's perplexing. I'm looking at the patch, and the line is already there.
20:17 schuster I have There is an if statement commented out then "require C4::AuthoritiesMarc;" - line 204
20:17 Shane-S jcamins: what version should I contribute to if I am going to try and make OPAC table-less?
20:18 jcamins Shane-S: Master.
20:18 schuster Then line 205 is "return SearchAuthorities("
20:18 oleonard Shane-S: And use git ;)
20:18 jcamins schuster: that's exactly what it should look like.
20:19 schuster: you're probably going to run into a problem with C4/Biblio.pm as well.
20:19 Open that up and search for "LinkBibHeadingsToAuthorities
20:19 A few lines down should be the line "my %results;"
20:19 After that line add "require C4::Heading;" and "require C4::AuthoritiesMarc;"
20:21 schuster That is already there.
20:21 jcamins It is?
20:21 Huh.
20:21 schuster: when you run "git status" does it tell you that you have "conflicts"?
20:22 schuster I am told I am 1 commit ahead of "origin/master'
20:22 no changes added
20:23 jcamins Okay, good.
20:23 In that case, carry on with your testing. :)
20:24 schuster But that's where I'm stuck.  I open a record already in the system and when I click save I get the "Software error:" Undefined...
20:25 jcamins schuster: *after* the change?
20:25 schuster I didn't have to change anything.
20:25 jcamins schuster: wait, what?
20:25 wahanui wait, is it only in items?
20:25 jcamins schuster: the require was already there?
20:25 schuster yep
20:26 jcamins I thought you meant the other ones were already there.
20:26 * chris_n turns the temperature down on 3.6.x
20:26 jcamins Okay, try changing line 205 to C4::AuthoritiesMarc::SearchAuthorities(
20:26 schuster my error says "Undefined subroutine &C4::Heading::SearchAuthorities called at /home/koha/kohaclone/C4/Heading.pm line 205."
20:27 jcamins I'm not sure why it would've worked on my system and not yours, but if we state explicitly which package we're using, that should fix it.
20:27 I think.
20:27 * jcamins would change the patch and upload the new one, except his computer is an hour and a half away.
20:28 rangi chris_n++
20:31 schuster jcamins - 204 is require C4::AuthoritiesMarc;, 205 is return SearchAuthorities(
20:31 jcamins schuster: change it to "return C4::AuthoritiesMarc::SearchAuthorities("
20:31 wahanui jcamins: that doesn't look right
20:31 wahanui joined #koha
20:32 schuster which line do I need to change?  204 like C4::AuthoritiesMarc::SearchAuthorities; ?
20:32 jcamins Sorry. I'm slightly incoherent today. :/
20:32 No, you're adding "C4::AuthoritiesMarc" to line 205.
20:33 schuster YEAH it worked!!  taking notes...  Moving forward with testing.
20:34 jcamins Woohoo!

21:46 schuster @later tell jcamins - in step 16 of the test - If you don't match case in the heading it doesn't link.  If you do it does link.
21:46 huginn schuster: The operation succeeded.
21:47 schuster @later tell jcamins - step 16 no that isn't right it linked them both to the heading but the local bib record one is correct the other is mixed case.  Interesting.
21:47 huginn schuster: The operation succeeded.

21:59 any ideas?
21:59 wahanui any ideas are welcome :)
22:01 Penggu the koha dist i'm using is liblime_koha-4.08.23
22:01 maximep we don't support liblime koha here
22:02 cait Penggu: I am sorry, but we can't help you
22:02 Penggu no probs
22:02 cait if you are jsut getting started with koha
22:03 you might want to take a look at koha-community.org and download koha from download.koha-community.org or use the debian packages under debian.koha-community.org
22:03 Penggu i only saw liblime. didnt realise there was an actual different distribution.
22:03 cait that's often the problem that people don't know about the difference
22:04 Penggu nice. time to rm -rf
22:04 this has been a mess
22:04 cait where are you from Penggu?
22:04 Penggu .au
22:05 rangi Penggu: actual koha comes with debian packages too, another advantage :)

22:09 rangi morning Space_Librarian
22:10 eythian hi
22:10 wahanui niihau, eythian
22:10 cait heya eythian
22:10 rangi Penggu: where in .au ... i was just in melbourne for VALA
22:10 eythian g'day cait
22:10 Penggu melbourne also, northern suburbs
22:10 rangi sweet
22:10 melbourne is a nice place
22:10 there are some koha libraries in melbourne already too
22:10 Space_Librarian morning rangi!
22:11 melbs is awesome. :)
22:11 morning eythian and cait
22:12 cait - I hear you guys have some cool analystics stuffs going on. You should tell me about it sometime.
22:12 rangi Penggu: http://www.ncps.edu.au/melbourne-campus.html   these guys for one
22:12 cait there are 2 different implementations for analytics
22:12 eythian hello Space_Librarian
22:13 rangi i told Space_Librarian to use your one cait
22:13 cait oh
22:13 Space_Librarian lol
22:13 cait well then I can tell her - was going to say that the other is not compatible with our data model so have not tested it out :)
22:13 rangi and http://library.philanthropy.or[…]ha/opac-search.pl ... in melbourne too .. but they are using a pretty old koha
22:14 Space_Librarian cait sweet - the other model doesn't really work for what we have.
22:15 cait ah
22:16 what we do is use 001 and links in $w of 773
22:16 it will create links between the records
22:16 so you can navigate between them, find all analytics from the host record and such
22:16 it works without 001 too
22:17 there is  anice cataloging enhancement colin wrote that would make the process even easier, but it's kinda stuck right now

22:18 Guillaume left #koha
22:20 Space_Librarian wicked. Will have a good look. Thanks cait!
22:22 cait Space_Librarian: any time. I am sorry I have no example to show you
22:22 Space_Librarian: our libraries only have very few analytics, what we have more is sets with multiple parts
22:24 Space_Librarian: https://hfjs.bsz-bw.de/cgi-bin[…]?biblionumber=549
22:24 Space_Librarian Also - riddle me this. How can I make ebooks searchable, and available, without being able to have holds placed on them, because they mess with our holds queue... I'm toying with item types, but do other libraries have a good working example?
22:24 cait It's a handbook in 5 volumes, there is a set record with a link to show the corresponding volumes. he analytics work quite similar, different icons and the link is named differently :)
22:25 Space_Librarian cait, we're wanting to link individual journal articles to it's volume/number
22:25 cait Space_Librarian: if you add items for ebooks I think using an itemtype that is marked not for loan should work
22:25 Space_Librarian so very similiar
22:26 cait not for loan in the itemtype configuration
22:27 Space_Librarian no, that's something different
22:27 cait if you want to make really sure, you can also add it in circulation rules, at the bottom of the page - make the itemtype there non holdable
22:27 not for loan items can never be put on hold - what can't be checked out, can not be put on hold :)
22:27 koha logic
22:27 Space_Librarian orly? I hadn't tried that. We just have it marked as not for loan atm, and that's not helpful
22:28 yeah. confuses patrons horribly
22:29 cait if you don't want to use the not for loan checkbox
22:29 Space_Librarian and lovely way of cataloging - I like the linking (having now read the bug and looked at your catalogue)
22:30 cait our records are from a union catalog - it's a bit different from how most koha libraries work, but lots of nice links :)
22:30 so we had to make them show
22:32 ah, what I wanted to say is - in circulation rules, the last option on the page, you can mark an itemtype not for loan. additionally you can try to set a circulation rule with a loan period of 0
22:32 both should work together I think and prevent holds
22:37 * jcamins_away sits down with a pile of fudge and the cat.
22:38 cait ooh
22:38 * cait tries to lure myshkin to her
22:38 jcamins Much needed.
22:38 Both the fudge and the cat.
22:39 eythian don't confuse them.
22:39 jcamins eythian: no, that seems ill-advised.
22:39 Space_Librarian mmm. fudge.
22:40 jcamins Kahlua fudge.
22:40 :)
22:40 cait yum
22:41 Space_Librarian you really do enjoy taunting us with good food, don't you? :)
22:41 cait oh yes he does
22:41 and he does not ship to germany
22:41 jcamins :/
22:41 I'm just sharing virtually. :)
22:42 cait at least that ;)
22:42 you have to come to scotland with an extra suitcase of fudge :)
22:43 * jcamins will do his best.
22:44 * Space_Librarian is envious
22:45 jcamins You should make fudge.
22:45 It's tasty.
22:45 And easy.
22:46 Space_Librarian I should make fudge. Next week.
22:46 I will make fudge
22:46 cait and you should start shipping fudge to germany...
22:46 jcamins You should do it tonight.
22:46 * cait tries to use jedi powers
22:47 Space_Librarian I have a 21km walk on Sunday... There will be no fudge making tonight
22:47 * Space_Librarian is impervious to force use
22:47 jcamins Space_Librarian: you should make the fudge and not eat it.
22:47 Then it'll be waiting for you Sunday after the walk. :)
22:47 rangi so what am i going to eat while i sit on the sideline watching you walk then!!
22:47 how inconsiderate!
22:47 cait lol
22:47 jcamins Space_Librarian: plus, you need to make fudge for rangi!
22:47 rangi hehe
22:48 cait yes, making fudge for rangi tops any jedi powers
22:48 jcamins That's a long walk.
22:48 Space_Librarian it is a half marathon
22:49 And I will make fudge for rangi and eythian... when I make fudge
22:49 rangi yay!
22:49 eythian excellent :D
22:49 Space_Librarian Because catalyst boys are awesome.
22:50 lol
22:50 And then when the rest of you lot visit us in Wellington, I'll make you fudge too.
22:50 jcamins :)
22:50 Space_Librarian ;)
22:50 jcamins And when you all visit NYC, I'll share fudge.
22:52 Space_Librarian Sweet!
22:53 And brownies. Don't forget the brownies.
22:54 cait I was there! and got no fudge
22:54 *sniff*
22:55 Space_Librarian :(
22:55 But you may get Edinburgh Rock in Scorland though. mmmm... proper Edinburgh Rock...
22:55 Scotland even
22:55 ibeardslee rangi, eythian: you need to let me know next time fudge is made ;)
22:56 eythian ibeardslee: but you're on a foreign floor!
22:56 jcamins cait: you were in NYC and didn't tell me?!?
22:56 cait lol yes, every seond weekend jcamins
22:57 * jcamins feels insulted that he was the last to find out. :P
22:57 grudgingly shares fudge with cait anyway. ;)
22:57 Space_Librarian ibeardslee yeah, you're in the shadowdy depths of the place.
22:58 shadowy* Man, I need coffee.
22:58 ibeardslee I am closer to the merengues at BOC
22:59 jcamins Mmm. Merengue.
23:00 Space_Librarian speaking of which... I need to gatecrash a BoC sometime.
23:00 cait I will go
23:00 it's really too late to plunder the fridge or start making fudge
23:00 Space_Librarian cait: make icing... eat that
23:00 cait icing at midnight is probably not healthy
23:00 jcamins lol
23:01 Icing is always healthy!
23:01 Space_Librarian yes! Pure sugar - what could possibly be bad about that?
23:01 cait lol
23:01 I am trying to eat no chocolate until easter
23:01 jcamins !!
23:01 cait you will all witness the consequences...
23:01 (started today9
23:01 jcamins Oh no!
23:01 cait so i survived day 1
23:01 almost
23:02 jcamins Out of forty?
23:02 cait yeah I think
23:02 Space_Librarian Yikes! That's a hard item to give up for lent.
23:02 cait i don't smoke and i don't drink beer...
23:02 had to be the chocolate
23:02 * jcamins is glad he doesn't celebrate Lent.
23:02 jcamins So's Myshkin.
23:03 cait hehe
23:03 * Space_Librarian too
23:03 Space_Librarian lol
23:03 cait it's more about finding out if i can
23:04 Space_Librarian You can. Chocolate does taste weird after 40 days off it though (I speak from experience)
23:05 jcamins Space_Librarian: how terrible!
23:05 cait yeah
23:05 that was my thought too
23:05 Space_Librarian which is why I then gave up Lent for Lent.
23:05 * cait is suddenly wondering if that was really a good idea
23:05 jcamins lol
23:05 ibeardslee Space_Librarian: that's the way to do it
23:05 Space_Librarian I thought so. ;)
23:06 jcamins One friend gave up Facebook for Lent.
23:06 She announced it on Facebook.
23:06 I laughed.
23:06 cait I trust you all to make me eat chocolate again before i turn into another totally different person ;)
23:06 and now good night #koha!
23:06 jcamins Good night.
23:06 Space_Librarian night!
23:06 jcamins Vanilla icing just isn't as tasty as chocolate icing.
23:06 Space_Librarian agreed
23:08 * cait runs out
23:08 ibeardslee my fav is that almond icing
23:08 jcamins ibeardslee: nah, chocolate for me.
23:08 Space_Librarian marzipan?
23:08 ibeardslee Space_Librarian: yes
23:08 jcamins ibeardslee: actually, I see no reason to make icing. Melted chocolate is good enough. :)
23:08 cait left #koha
23:09 Space_Librarian And now I need to go visit that chocolatier and get coffee... bbiab
