Koha: how to move 3.2 settings moved to 3.4
by Linda Culberson 27 May '11

27 May '11

All, We've done a fresh git install of 3.4.1 and were wondering is if there is a quick and easy way to get our system preferences, frameworks, and other settings moved from 3.2 over to 3.4.1. I was going to do a fresh install of our marc records, so I was less concerned about moving biblios. biblioitems, and items, but a dump seemed simplest except for the databases being so different. I looked at http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Installation_Documentation but it doesn't mention migration. Is that information somewhere I've missed? Thanks in advance. -- Linda Culberson lculber(a)mdah.state.ms.us Archives and Records Services Division Ms. Dept. of Archives & History P. O.

If you mean technical knowledge? Besides Perl, a well-rounded Koha developer should also know JavaScript and CSS, be familiar with MySQL. More specific things to know or learn include jQuery, Template Toolkit, and the version control system Git. Development practices that a developer should be familiar with include writing test cases.

Re: [Koha] Customisation in Staff Clinet Interface of Koha (Owen Leonard)
by R Sunil Kumar 27 May '11

Dear Owen Thanks for your reply. Please clarify on having multiple CSS files for a single installation for both staff client interface and web OPAC. When Koha installed for multiple libraries spread across the region or within the campus (central library / departmental libraries, etc). 1. Can we have individual OPAC for each library, with customized interface? 2. Regarding the staff interface of the koha a. can we do merging two different modules into single module? b. can we have customized icon instead of text based hyperlink?

My OPAC banner leaving white spaces on koha 3.2.6
by amutsikiwa 26 May '11

26 May '11

I have added by Koha banner masthead.inc in the en/include directory so that it can appear on top of the OPAC page, well above the Log into 2Your Account Message". And my body css tag is defined as follows body { background-color : FFFFCC; text-align : left; padding : 0 ; margin: 0 ; } However, my banner is leaving spaces on all sides. How can I remove the spaces? Regards, Admire Mutsikiwa

error message for keyword searches
by Caitlin McGurk 26 May '11

26 May '11

Hi all, My library has recently finished cataloging our *entire* collection into Koha, which was a great and easy process! However, now comes the troubleshooting part, and we're running into a LOT of problems. Unless I'm searching for a specific title or author, I get this as the result: Error: Can't call method "as_usmarc" on an undefined value at /usr/share/koha/lib/C4/Search.pm line 2384. That error message is yielded for nearly every keyword search, for things that I know are in our collection. Suggestions? I am using the latest Koha installation.

Question for Libraries using Koha's Self Checkout
by Nicole Engard 26 May '11

26 May '11

For libraries that are using Koha's self checkout module I'm wondering how you're desensitizing books so that they don't set off your security devices - or do you not have security devices. Thanks in advance, Nicole C. Engard
