Patron permissions questions
by Agnes Rivers-Moore 05 May '09

05 May '09

Hello all I work with a few libraries testing Koha, and a question has come up about setting permissions for "patrons". As I understood this, permissions are for staff accounts only, to control their use of the staff client modules, based on their login. I see in the list of permissions that there is one flag (permissions) to set user permissions, and another (staffaccess) to modify permissions for staff users, and this confuses me as they seem to be the same. It has been noticed that the permissions screen exists for all patron types, and I have had some confused questions about whether staff have to check the "Borrow books" permission before anything can be checked out to a new patron, and why we need a "staff" type at all if any patron can be set to use the staff client. I can see their point, so I am wondering: Can someone explain the difference between those two permission flags? Has anyone used permissions for patrons who are not on staff, and if so what for? Could this screen be set not to appear except for specific patron types, e.g. "Staff" (even for superlibrarians)? Thank you all, Agnes -- Agnes Rivers-Moore Assistant Librarian Hanover Public Library

Hello, I know I'm flooding the mailing list but I have another question. I want to really modify the interface of koha OPAC but I don't know where to start. I just don't want to change the logo and headers. I really want to customized my whole OPAC website (change the codes etc). I tried to change the css and tmpl files but I can't see the results.

What files do I have to change? thanks in advance

Images In OpacNav and OpacMainUserBlock
by Melanie Saldua 05 May '09

05 May '09

Hello, I'm having a problem inserting some images on OpacNav and OpacMainUserBlock. I tried to insert an image in a simple hmtl tag img. I both tried its relative path as well as its absolute path but they don't show up. I even used the images in the images folder. The text in the alt tag seems to work. Is it really possible to insert images in these sections? Is there another way to insert images in these sections? Thanks!

FW: [Koha-devel] How to run two zebra servers at once in one computer for multiple databases?
by ashik rajbhandari 04 May '09

04 May '09

Dear Sir, I tried to follow your procedures, but it is still indexing records from firstly created database i.e. "Koha", not from second database "book". Can you please help me out to run two zebra servers simultaeneously for two different databases by providing me step by step procedures in detail to change the directories for biblioserver and authorityserver zebra and also to change the lines for koha-zebra-ctl.sh / book-zebra-ctl.sh, koha-conf.xml / book-conf.xml with detailed examples. Looking forward for your kind cooperation.
