The Terrific Every-Other-Thursday Training Videos | 617
by BRANNON, CHRISTOPHER 21 May '26

21 May '26

Well, George has done it again! Don't need a Quote of the Day feature? How about a Tip of the Day feature? George finds a part of Koha he doesn't want to use. Then he finds something he wishes Koha could do. Then he takes the thing he doesn't want to use and beats it into submission until it does the thing he wishes Koha could do. Well, maybe more like a gentle suggestion through some jQuery. Anyway, here is another episode where George bends Koha to his will. https://youtu.be/5NqY-HDLyZ8 Respectfully, Christopher Brannon koha-US Admin
