Re: [Koha] Circulation Rules: Parent and Child Item Type
by Caroline Cyr La Rose 22 Aug '22

Hi Naveen, It's better to answer to the list rather than just me so someone can chime in if they know the answer. As far as I know, the rule for the parent type only applies to children for the "checkouts allowed" rule. This may have changed since, but when the parent/child item types were introduced, it was like this. If your "All" rule has a hard due date, and there are no other rules for the children item types, the hard due date should apply. Otherwise, you need to have a rule for each of your child item types to enforce the hard due date, which is unfortunate since you seem to have so many, but that is the way it is (as far as I know). I just tested it in 22.05 with the following rules * Rule 1 o Patron category : all o Item type : Books (parent type) o Checkouts allowed : 2 o Checkout period : 10 days (no hard due date) * Rule 2 o Patron category : all o Item type : all o Checkouts allowed : 50 o Checkout period : 30 (should not apply since I have a hard due date below) o Hard due date : exactly on 2022-08-17 I checked out an item with the "Children's books" item type, which is a child of the "Books" item type. The hard due date of the "all" category was applied because there is no specific rule for "Children's books". The checkout limit of the parent type (2) was also applied. I don't know if my example is just more confusing but the important part to remember is that the rule for the parent type will only apply to the children for the "checkouts allowed". For the rest, including the hard due date, it is managed in individual rules for each children type or an "all" rule that would include the children types.

Can someone point me to a guide, if it is possible, to have patrons self-login by scanning just their library card? Been digging through the documentation and preferences looking for a way to set this up.

loading a deduplicated catalogue
by Thomas Vealehse 21 Aug '22

21 Aug '22

Hi I am loading a deduplicated catalogue, where item records will have moved from one bib record to another, and bib records that were duplicates would have been deleted. The processing of the deduplication was done outside of Koha, and I'm looking to re-import the whole catalogue. Has anyone does this before, and is there any danger of data being lost ( item status etc) Thanks Thomas HSE Libraries Ireland

Time to translate: string freeze to prepare Koha 21.05.18 has begun
by Victor Grousset/tuxayo 17 Aug '22

17 Aug '22

Hi, String freeze is into effect as of now for the 21.05.x maintenance branch. This means it's the right time to head over to the translation platform: https://translate.koha-community.org/projects/ Reminder: if you add or change a translation in version 21.05, then you must also copy it to 21.11 and 22.05. Otherwise your work will be lost for future versions. Happy translating :) -- Victor Grousset/tuxayo

HTML customizations disappearing where no title given
by Fairlamb, Christina 16 Aug '22

16 Aug '22

Hello all, Koha 22.05 I made a change to my Additional contents (HTML customizations), OpacMainUserBlock, which happened not to have a title given to it, nor did I add one, (I was fixing a small wording issue in the content). After updating, the entry has completely disappeared from the list and the contents are now gone from the OPAC page too. I also tried to add content for the OpacNavRight, without a title and both did not appear in the list. Adding a title when creating them does add them to the Additional contents table and OPAC however. I think this is an odd bug and now I'm wondering what has happened to the content I created/modified without a title and saved, as I cannot see it. I do have this message at the top of the table list: (Showing 1 to 2 of 2 entries (filtered from 3 total entries) Christina
