OPAC research does not work

Hello, I'm having problems configuring Koha. I've uselessly tried solving the issue on my own and also browsing forums. After the install I started cataloging, inserting titles and texts. However once inserted for some reason they don't appear in the OPAC. I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong and need assistance. Thank you in advance

Report for items held by 2 out of 3 branches
by Cab Vinton 22 Feb '19

22 Feb '19

Hi, All -- We have a report (see below) that generates a random list of items held by all 3 of our branches & purchased within the past 30 days. To generate more titles we'd like to loosen the criteria by specifying that the titles should be held by just 2 of the 3 branches. I know how I'd approach this outside of Koha's SQL-based reporting tool, but not sure how to write this without repeating a whole bunch of code ((A or B) or (A or C) or (B or C)). The code is used to populate a carousel on our OPAC's home page & it's already a bit "pokey", so efficient code is an important factor. Anyone have suggestions on how best to write this report? Many thanks in advance, Cab Vinton, Director Plaistow Public Library Plaistow, NH https://catalog.southernnh.bywatersolutions.com SELECT b.biblionumber, SUBSTRING_INDEX(m.isbn, ' ', 1) AS isbn, b.title, i.homebranch, i.itemcallnumber FROM items i LEFT JOIN biblioitems m USING (biblioitemnumber) LEFT JOIN biblio b ON i.biblionumber = b.biblionumber WHERE i.itype = 'NEWBOOK' AND b.biblionumber IN (SELECT biblionumber FROM items WHERE DATE_SUB(CURDATE(),INTERVAL 30 DAY) <= dateaccessioned AND homebranch='KIMBALL') AND b.biblionumber IN (SELECT biblionumber FROM items WHERE DATE_SUB(CURDATE(),INTERVAL 30 DAY) <= dateaccessioned AND homebranch='PLAISTOW') AND b.biblionumber IN (SELECT biblionumber FROM items WHERE DATE_SUB(CURDATE(),INTERVAL 30 DAY) <= dateaccessioned AND homebranch='SANDOWN') GROUP BY b.biblionumber HAVING isbn != "" ORDER BY rand() LIMIT 7
