Automatic setting of branch library on login
by Admire Mutsikiwa 06 Dec '21

06 Dec '21

Good day. We are running Koha 21.05 in a multi-branch setup. I have noted that our Koha system is longer setting the correct home branch library a staff member belongs to. Instead, staff members have to use the Set Library option, which becomes a challenge if you have a low timeout as staff members have to set the Library repeatedly. Could there be a System preference I could have set wrongly. Kind Regards, -- The information transmitted by this email is intended only for the person or entity to which it is addressed.

21.05 update: link from staff interface biblio to OPAC
by Elaine Bradtke 06 Dec '21

06 Dec '21

More a caution than a problem. If you've been running Koha for a long time, the OPACBaseURL may be "http", rather than https. Our test OPAC requires a user login. The link between a biblio record and the OPAC won't work if the OPACBaseURL says http and the actual url is https. The logins keep failing. Luckily it's an easy fix.

Dear All Printing labels in Koha using the English language is very easy. Because the English language is the default language of Koha. Would anybody guide me to print labels in other languages like Arabic or Urdu? Regards! Rizwan

Dynamic XSLT labels based on framework "Text for OPAC"?
by Bales (US), Tasha R 06 Dec '21

06 Dec '21

Good afternoon, I'd like to check my understanding on MARC frameworks. In my frameworks, I've changed the "Text for OPAC" of various fields, and they display as desired in the "MARC view", but not in the "Normal view". I am sure this is occurring because these are local 9xx fields; I had to customize the Detail XSLT to get them to show up at all in the OPAC. My question is... how can I get the XSLT to use the text that is defined in the Framework for this record? For instance, I have several frameworks that contain a 926 field, but each framework has a different "Text for OPAC". Is it possible to add a test below? Just now I tried deleting the label text entirely to see what would happen, but Ctrl+f5 and/or trying in a new browser doesn't reflect my results (a different mystery I am sometimes flummoxed by). As always, if this is too complex a question, even a pointer would help. Thanks in advance. Here is my XSLT (sometimes, "Original Release Date" is correct-other times, "Date of Basic" is needed-it all depends on the framework): <xsl:if test="marc:datafield[@tag=926]"> Original Release Date: <xsl:for-each select="marc:datafield[@tag=926]"> <xsl:call-template name="chopPunctuation"> <xsl:with-param name="chopString"> <xsl:call-template name="subfieldSelect"> <xsl:with-param name="codes">a</xsl:with-param> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:with-param> </xsl:call-template> <xsl:choose><xsl:when test="position()=last()"><xsl:text></xsl:text></xsl:when><xsl:otherwise><xsl:text>; </xsl:text></xsl:otherwise></xsl:choose> </xsl:for-each> </xsl:if> Tasha Bales Enterprise Services http://isesi.web.boeing.com/

translating authorized values
by Lauren Denny 03 Dec '21

03 Dec '21

Hi everyone, I work for a consortium that serves several languages. I'm trying to find a way to translate our authorized values for shelving locations and collection codes so that everyone can understand the terms. I was wondering if it is possible to translate the values created for authorized values of it I have to create new values in each language. I know that item types can be translated and was wondering if there is an option to do the same thing for different authorized values. Thank you for your help. Lauren

KOHA OPAC
by elvira abao 02 Dec '21

02 Dec '21

Hello morning, I would like to know more on how to acquire KOHA OPAC, our library belongs to the small library and we don't have an online library system. If you have given us a chance to acquire your online library system, may I know the requirements, the system use or software use. to be honest I did not understand how to install the system, although I read your articles but still need further explanation. Thank you very much in advance. God Bless .
