Greetings, I'm having trouble getting the Google login to work since upgrading/rebuilding Koha (we rebuilt the VPS and followed the install guide: https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Debian) *The problem:* 1) I can log in through my local account, no problem. 2) I then try to login through my Google account 3) After pressing allow from the accounts.google.com site, a message is displayed: /Sorry, your Google login failed. .../ The full message is below.

Koha on Debian 10
by Clogher Historical Society 09 Jun '22

09 Jun '22

Hi, Thanks for the replies, it seems that I need to be running Debian 9 ( Stretch) not version 10 (Buster) but there is someone called: mtj on IRC who is working on Debian 10. There doesn't seem to be a downgrade option in Debian so reinstalling the whole operating system is pretty awkward. I hope (MTJ) includes Debian 10 support soon. Best Regards, Aindriú

Remove Not For Loan / Available distinctions
by Elaine Bradtke 26 Aug '20

26 Aug '20

We've been running Koha for a while, but have a new person in charge and they (correctly) pointed out that displaying Available / Not Available status for a collection that's 99% reference only is useless and possibly confusing. Is there an easy way to switch this display off? A quick look round the preferences didn't show anything. We're trying to avoid custom configurations because we've got very minimal, volunteer support. Right now, just about everything shows up as 'not available' even though it's sitting right there on the shelf. Thanks!

by Renvoize, Martin 15 Jun '20

15 Jun '20

Hello Everyone, It is with great pleasure I am able to announce the release of Koha 20.05, a major release of the Koha open source integrated library system. This release includes 13 new features, 275 enhancements, 592 bugfixes. Please see the release notes for further details: https://koha-community.org/koha-20-05-released/ It is the work of many librarians, developers and community members who have donated a huge number of hours to keep the project moving forward. My thanks go out to all who contributed. This is my final release as a release manager and I'd like to extend my personal thanks to a fantastic team. Special thanks go out to Mason James, Tomas Cohen and Jonathan Druart, all who stepped in during the final weeks of the cycle to ensure the packaging would work as expected for Debian 10 as well as finding and fixing bugs right up to the very end of the cycle. I cannot overstate what a great team I've had behind me this cycle and I feel we have achieved a huge amount. Debian packages, will be available on the standard community repositories soon having been tested via our beta channels for the past two weeks.

Self-service hardware question
by Lisa Peel 03 Jun '20

03 Jun '20

Hello everyone I am hoping those of you with experience of implementing self-service with Koha would be able to give me some assistance. We are looking at implementing self-service in order to extend our service hours – however I have little experience of this, especially what hardware would be needed. Am I right in thinking that it is not actually necessary to buy one of the very fancy free standing units I have seen in many supplier catalogues? We have no alarm system in any of our libraries (there are six of them, most of them relatively small with less than 3000 items each, no RFID). Ideally I need to find a cost effective solution, ideally something which would also incorporate generating a receipt (so students have proof of check in). Could anyone advise me of what we would need and possible price?

Re: [Koha] Barcode as a link report
by muirunyeri 30 May '20

30 May '20

Hello Mark, Thanks for pointing me to that direction. The itemnumber link does open the edit item page I was looking for. However if anybody would help me understand why I get an error (biblionumber is ambiguous) after adding any field from biblio table I'd be really grateful. This after correctly adding a left join for the biblios table using biblionumber on itemnumber in items. Without the fields from biblio, the report works runs successfully. Warm regards James Sent from my Samsung Galaxy smartphone.-------- Original message --------From: Mark Alexander <marka(a)pobox.com> Date: 18/05/2020 16:06 (GMT+03:00) To: koha <koha(a)lists.katipo.co.nz> Subject: Re: [Koha] [koha] Barcode as a link report Excerpts from muirunyeri's message of 2020-05-18 13:05:56 +0300: > I'm looking to create a report with barcode as a link that when will clicked will open the edit items page.
