Linda,<br><br><br>The project is still being spec'ed out... I hope it would be ready for Koha 3.6, if the funding details all work out.<br><br>In the meantime, I'd recommend using Git to track any changes you need made. This works best on a dev installation from Git, but could be applied to production installations as well. You'd need to create a branch based off your current codebase, make the change, commit it, and then periodically rebase or merge as you upgrade your code.<br>
<br>Are you by any chance going to the KUDOS conference in Madison, WI next week? I'm doing a presentation on just this subject, approaching it both from the theoretical end (what is this version control system doing?) and the practical end (do these commands in this order). I'll of course be sharing my slides after the conference, if you're unable to make it.<br>

Do you have a time frame on this project? What I was wondering is the best way to proceed in the meantime?<br>
Thanks in advance.<br>

Yes, manually changing this file without version control is going to<br>
complicate your upgrades If you make any changes to you, it's best to<br>
use Git to track those changes.<br>
<br>
I'm actually in the process of spec'ing out a method for allowing users<br>
to upload their own XSLT in a way that won't break upgrades. This<br>
would also solve your problem, likely.<br>

All,<br>
Based on an answer I got in October about how to make fields not appear<br>
in the opac (in our case the 59X fields), I was about to change the<br></div>
opac-tmpl/prog/en/xsl/MARC21slim2OPACDetail.xsl  and was wondering.<br>
 Is<br>
this file overwritten with each upgrade?  In other words, is  changing<br>
this file the best way to hide fields? Â How about moving fields from<br>
below the  "Title Notes" tab to above it?<div class="im"><br>
<br>
Thanks in advance for your insight and help.<br>
