Export list in csv format
by Rupinder Singh 14 Aug '23

Hi, We occasionally create different lists from our koha catalogue of the books pertaining to certain subjects to be circulated to faulty. To do this, I have to search for books using appropriate search criteria, and then from the results, i check mark and add these books to my private list. From this private list, I can either print the added books or share these via email. However, the export option only gives RIS, Bibtext, and ISO2709 formats. My question is, can I add a CSV export option for my lists so that I can have the books in Excel format? Thanks Rupinder Singh

Carlos, Yes! There is a plugin we've used for our digital displays, but can easily be used for any page of your website. Look for Library Bookshelves by Guilderland Public Library. This plugin works great! https://wordpress.org/plugins/library-bookshelves/ ___________________________ Christopher Brannon IT Coordinator 702 E Front Ave Coeur d'Alene, ID 83814 (208)769-2315 Ext. 456 cbrannon(a)cdalibrary.org www.cdalibrary.org Keep tabs on us at: Date: Fri, 11 Aug 2023 06:50:33 +0000 From: Carlos Lopez <clopez(a)dml.vic.edu.au> To: koha <koha(a)lists.katipo.co.nz> Subject: [Koha] Koha carousel on WordPress?

23.05 Multiple items - some items display incorrect shelving locations
by Elaine Bradtke 10 Aug '23

10 Aug '23

Koha 23.05 When looking at bib records that include multiple items with different locations, we sometimes see the following: - The results list shows the correct information. - The bib record holdings view gives the shelving location of one item in the list for some subsequent items. - Edit items displays the correct locations. - The OPAC record displays correctly. This does not happen with all the records that have multiple items with different shelving locations. In some cases only one or two items in the holdings list are displayed incorrectly. I have not been able to discover why it happens to some records and not others. Link to three screenshots: https://photos.app.goo.gl/ocFn48hF6E9GiszQ6 The bib record with incorrect location display, edit items with correct location information and OPAC view with correct information. It is similar, but not the same as bug 34122 https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=34122 - The records concerned have not been updated / edited; the information is correct in the database, but displaying incorrectly in some views. The location that seems to be misbehaving (but possibly because it's the easiest error to detect) is "Off-site" appearing where it shouldn't. Would the - be causing a problem? Has anyone else seen something like this?

MARC modification templates problem
by Eric Phetteplace 10 Aug '23

10 Aug '23

Hi collective wisdom, I'm running into a MARC modification template problem and I can't tell if I'm missing something or there's a bug/limitation. I know I could accomplish these edits with MARCEdit or a script, but I was hoping to use Koha's tools. I have a record with two 856 fields with links, I want to apply our proxy server prefix to one link but not the other. That seems to be impossible; Koha clobbers the second link with a copy of the first. Here's a minimal example. Record 245 _ _ ‡aExample 856 4 0 ‡uhttps://example.com‡yLink to proxy 856 4 0 ‡uhttps://www.cca.edu‡yLink to retain MARC modification Copy and replace 1st field(s) 856 u to field 856 u Regex ✅ s/^http/ https://proxy.cca.edu/url?=http/ If field 856 u matches m/https://example.com/ Regex ✅ Output record 245 _aExample 856 40 _uhttps://proxy.cca.edu/url?=https://example.com _yLink to proxy 856 40 _uhttps://proxy.cca.edu/url?=https://example.com _yLink to retain This happens whether I set the modification template to use the "1st" or "every" 856 field. I don't understand why the second 856 is touched at all, since it does not meet the "if" condition, much less why instead of receiving its own link proxied it gets the first 856 URL proxied. Based on a few tests, it also seems like the "1st" field with respect to modification actions is not always the one that's visually first when I edit a record. I tried a set of three actions which 1) copied the first field to another, unused field, 2) modified it there, and then 3) copied it back, but Koha copied the second field instead.

by Antony Kujenga 09 Aug '23

Dear Community, I've been trying to edit some frameworks in our Koha 22.05.05.000 instance running on Ubuntu 22.04. Upon running the framework test, I'm getting this error report: homebranch NOT mapped the items.homebranch field MUST : - be mapped to a MARC subfield, - the corresponding subfield MUST have "Authorized value" set to "branches" holdingbranch NOT mapped the items.holdingbranch field MUST : - be mapped to a MARC subfield, - the corresponding subfield MUST have "Authorized value" set to "branches" I have tried changing the stated fields numerous times but the system will not effect the changes. I tried running $ sudo koha-shell -c '/usr/share/koha/bin/batchRebuildBiblioTables.pl -c' your_koha_name with our instance name but it hasn't helped. Any urgent help would be most appreciated.
