How to hide Subfield in OPAC
by Ketut Gunawan 19 Apr '21

19 Apr '21

Dear all, I am new to Koha so I need helps. I have a subfield 856$u containing PDF files in hundred of records. I want to hide it in OPAC so that public visitors cannot see "Online resources: Click here to access online", but for those who log in (students) can see and click such a link. I have tried to read the manual and search the forum, but I can find it. Any help would be much appreciated. Best Regards, K. Gunawan SocPolSci Faculty, Mulawarman University Indonesia

Hi folks I have a report that lists items with a location of "DISPLAY": SELECT itemnumber, barcode, ccode, itemcallnumber, datelastseen FROM items WHERE location = "DISPLAY" ORDER BY ccode, itemcallnumber At the moment it brings up 18 items. itemnumber barcode ccode itemcallnumber datelastseen 270404 33865001661351 BP47 P659 H461 2021-04-07 270195 33865001666699 DK39 (34) P265 2021-03-11 269921 33865001662516 DL38 S617 2021-03-22 270241 33865001667093 KH48 F1 XL21 2021-03-12 270374 33865001661237 MM22 F778 2021-03-29 270371 33865001661112 MW61.64 S951 2021-03-29 270104 33865001662771 MW68 D976 A 2021-03-02 270293 National Catholic reporter 2021-03-15 270181 33865001665170 RC66 C559 2021-04-07 267602 33865001664009 RK56 E928 2021-03-30 270281 33865001666749 SA6 P984 2021-03-12 270432 33865001665212 SD80.91 K49 2021-04-14 270283 33865001666806 SM31 M191 2021-03-15 270426 33865001667325 WD78 H582 2021-04-09 270071 33865001662987 WW10 W456 2021-04-13 270225 33865001667101 XY28 H973 2021-03-15 270397 33865001667390 XY28 T814 2021-04-01 237930 33865001656583 JESUIT TE G573 2021-03-04 If I modify it to only bring up items with itemcallnumber beginning with A to M SELECT itemnumber, barcode, ccode, itemcallnumber, datelastseen FROM items WHERE location = "DISPLAY" AND itemcallnumber LIKE "[A-M]%" ORDER BY ccode, itemcallnumber I expect to get the top 7 results from the list above, but instead I get zero results. Is it that the Reports area on Koha restricts normal SQL functionality, or am I doing something wrong?

Koha Item Number File Creation
by Charles Kelley 19 Apr '21

19 Apr '21

Hello, all! I have been watching a video on batch item modifications < https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=USp2ucBh7gY>. According to the video there are three ways to identify the target items: (1) scan or type each barcode number into the textbox; (2) identify the compiled file of compiled barcodes of the targeted items; and (3) use the file of compiled item numbers. I have sought information for compiling item record files, but I have been unsuccessful. How are such files compiled? Many thanks, everyone. P. S. The video is most helpful. -- 気を付けて。 /ki wo tukete/ = Take care. -- Charles.

Error during Koha 20.11 installation
by Pocholo Fermin 18 Apr '21

18 Apr '21

Hi there, I'm trying to setup Koha 20.11 on my Ubuntu 20.04 LTS server. I followed the steps in Koha on ubuntu - packages page (https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Koha_on_ubuntu_-_packages#Appendix_A:_…) I installed MySQL server instead of MariaDB. I can visit the administration website to continue with the Koha web installer. I can login with the given username and password. The succeeding setup steps are fine. But when I get to the step "Now we're ready to create the database tables and fill them with some default data."...I am getting the following error and cannot further proceed with the setup. The following error occurred while importing the database structure: [Sun Apr 18 15:05:07 2021] install.pl: DBD::mysql::st execute failed: Cannot drop table 'auth_types' referenced by a foreign key constraint 'auth_subfield_structure_ibfk_1' on table 'auth_subfield_structure'. at /usr/share/perl5/DBIx/RunSQL.pm line 279, <$args{...}> line 1.

Getting guarantor information in notices
by Caroline Cyr-La-Rose 16 Apr '21

16 Apr '21

Hello dear community! I'm wondering if it's possible to access guarantor information for notices? We recently upgraded our Kohas to 20.05 from 19.05. One of the notices goes like this <<borrowers.firstname>> <<borrowers.surname>><br/> [% IF borrower.guarantorid %] C/O [% borrower.contactfirstname %] [% borrower.contactname %]<br/>[% END %] <<borrowers.address>> <<borrowers.address2>><br/> <<borrowers.city>> (<<borrowers.state>>) <<borrowers.zipcode>> The second line is if the patron has a guarantor, write Care of (C/O) the guarantor's name. This is for Overdues notices sent by mail to patrons. It is not logical for us to send overdue notices to children, so we write Care of the parent. In 20.05, the database structure changed to accommodate multiple guarantors per guarantee. Does anyone know if there is a way to access the guarantor information in notices? I'm not very familiar with TT syntax so I have no idea how to indicate this "borrower" is the guarantee and this other "borrower" is the guarantor... Thank you so much!
