Fix confusion between 099 and 942 field in UNIMARC framework
by Mathieu Saby 23 Aug '25

23 Aug '25

Hi Some weeks ago I submitted a patch in order to fix the management of Koha-specific fields in UNIMARC. https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=38336 If you're familiar with the way Koha manage UNIMARC and think you can make a constructive comment, don't hesitate. Even if don't know UNIMARC you should be able to test easily the patch and sign if off by following the test plan. Regards, Mathieu Saby, Université Cote d'Azur

Cloudflare setup
by Mark Alexander 16 Aug '25

16 Aug '25

As I mentioned a while back, I've set up Anubis on our Koha server. But I read yesterday that AI bots from Huawei now meet the Anubis challenge, and it's only a matter of time before other bots do, too. In case Anubis isn't able to handle this problem, I may need to move our library to Cloudflare. I've seen some tutorials from ByWater about this, but we don't use ByWater and their tutorials seem to be saying, "Trust us, we'll fix everything except for a few DNS changes you need to make." So was hoping to hear from some non-ByWater Koha users who use Cloudflare. I understand that using Cloudflare means changing the server's IP address and fiddling with DNS. Although I'm not in control of our domain's DNS, I can probably train the guy who is in control to do the right thing. But I'm uncertain about what needs to be done for SIP2 access. We have enabled SIP2 so that things like Kanopy can look up patrons. But it's not clear to me what I'd need to do for SIP2 after the switch to Cloudflare. Is it just a DNS change or is there something more I need to do? Thanks in advance for help with this and with any other issues I'm not aware of. -- I'm trying to live my life -- a task so difficult it has never been attempted before. --Ashleigh Brilliant
