We have tried installing ElasticSearch, but ElasticSearch 6.8.9 garnered a 404 error after this command: $ wget https://artifacts.elastic.co/downloads/elasticsearch/elasticsearch-6.8.9.deb (I would have included a screenshot, but when I did so last week, it caused my response to be held for approval.) We are inclined to install ElasticSearch over Zebra because we have quite a large number of 242 and 246 titles that also have to be indexed as titles and/or variant titles. We have seen the instructions for creating a new index in Zebra, but they really are a bear to implement. Suggestions? Many thanks. -- 気を付けて。 /ki wo tukete/ = Take care. -- Charles.

Curbside Pickup Plugin issue
by cruciani＠uns.edu.ar 18 Sep '20

18 Sep '20

Hi. I´ve installed and set up the Curbside Pickup Plugin. I´ve noticed that once the item for pick up has been marked as “delivered”, this stage is not sincronized with the patron`s OPAC accout. While in the staff interface all stages are fullfilled successfully, it doest´t seem to be happening the same from the patron`s OPAC accout, where the previous pick up scheduled continues to appear in spite of having been fullfilled. Thus, the patron has no option but cancelling the previous schedule so that a new one is allowed. Done this, everything appears to go well, except for the fact that the curbside pick scheduled notice is not sent any more from then on. However, if the new pick up schedule is done from the staff interface, the cubside pick up scheduled notice is sent correctly. I´m using Koha version 19.11, but I´ve also tested it in 20.05, both running on Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS (Focal Fossa). I ´d greatly appreciate your feedback on this. Regards, Paola V.

changes to personal info in OPAC
by Jacobs, Victoria 17 Sep '20

17 Sep '20

Hi, I recently have noticed that when I (or any user) try to update my personal details through the OPAC, it generates an error message that states, "You have not filled out all required fields. Please fill in all missing fields and resubmit." No required fields have been left unfilled. Is anyone else experiencing this and/or have any ideas for what might fix this problem? Users can change passwords and pay fines through the OPAC, no problem, it's just the personal details that can't be changed, when before they could be (as I have it set that they should be allowed to). Any help with this issue would be very appreciated!!! Best, *Vickie Jacobs* *Librarian, Oman Library* vjacobs(a)mei.edu 202-785-1141 ext.229 or 222 *Inspiring dialogue. Empowering change.* 1763 N ST.

some documentation (19.11 and 20.05) pages are slightly outdated
by Quỳnh Vũ Đỗ 17 Sep '20

17 Sep '20

Hello I have been using Koha documentation to extend Koha 19.11 as a CMS and followed instructions given on the following page: https://koha-community.org/manual/19.11/en/html/extending_koha.html#using-k… *Under the section "Editing the pages template" it is written as follows:* - Copy /usr/share/koha/opac/htdocs/opac-tmpl/bootstrap/en/modules/ opac-main.tt to /usr/share/koha/opac/htdocs/opac-tmpl/bootstrap/en/modules/ pages.tt - Edit /usr/share/koha/opac/htdocs/opac-tmpl/bootstrap/en/modules/pages.tt - At approximately line 61, change this: [% IF ( OpacMainUserBlock ) %]<div id="opacmainuserblock">[% OpacMainUserBlock %]</div>[% END %] - To this: [% IF ( page_test ) %]<div id="opacmainuserblock">[% page_test %]</div>[% END %] *But in the pages.tt <http://pages.tt> file (copied from opac-main.tt <http://opac-main.tt>) and where modifications are to be carried out, the line shows not at approximately line 61 but at line 152 and is written as:* [% IF ( OpacMainUserBlock ) %]<div id="opacmainuserblock">[% OpacMainUserBlock | $raw %]</div>[% END %] It is of course a very minor difference but for the sake of exactitude, it would be nice to have these differences corrected (line number and code) *There is however a bigger issue with the following content:* Remark: You may wish to disable your News block of these CMS style pages e.g. when you do not want it displayed on the CMS style pages or where the News block is long enough that it actually makes the ‘page_test’ include scroll outside the default viewport dimensions. In that case, remove the following code from your pages.tt template. [% IF ( koha_news_count ) %] <div id="news"> <table class="table table-bordered"> [% FOREACH koha_new IN koha_news %] <thead><tr><th>[% koha_new.title %]</th></tr></thead> <tbody><tr><td><p>[% koha_new.new %]</p> <p class="newsfooter"><i>(published on [% koha_new.newdate %])</i></p></td></tr></tbody> [% END %] </table> </div> [% END %] *Because the code to be researched as above has been completely modified and spans from line 72 to 102 (30 lines of code) and even further.* The same remarks stand also for 20.05 documentation ( https://koha-community.org/manual/20.05/en/html/extending_koha.html#using-k… ) To whom shall we report this, else than in this mailing list?
