Hi Chris Checked and they are correct, just a bit confused why the 952 fields come over in the MARC but don’t transfer into an item record. Thanks for helping!

This might be entirely unrelated to your problem but it caused me some grief a few months ago.

Send all notices to all available eMail addresses
by zefanja 24 Aug '18

24 Aug '18

Hi all, we are using Koha in our school library and we have the following "problem". We checkout books to all of our students starting from preschool. Especially the younger once don't have a personal eMail address. So we like to send notices (checkouts, checkins, overdues...) to both parents. As far as I understand Koha it send the notices only to one address. We could put in one of the parent's email, but we like to inform both. I've read that overdue_notices.pl has an repeatable --email parameter. Where can I change it to send the notice to both parents? Are there other ways to solve this problem or is it just not possible? I'm thankful for any hints. Regards, Stephan

Optional authority control in MARC21 700 field
by Rubén Fernández Asensio 23 Aug '18

23 Aug '18

Hello all, In my library, we've decided to do authority control for added entries only for personal names meeting certain requirements. (We're probably in violation of all cataloguing rules, but we just haven't got the time and means to control all secondary authors, and yet don't want to fully renounce authority control; there must be a middle ground.) However, there's no way to activate the authority thesaurus only optionally and allow free text typing instead. I've tried adding a second 700 field with different requirements but it's not added. A new 700a subfield simply replaces the previous one. Is there a technical way around this? Or else, a better way of achieving this, and allowing one single record to have different 700 fields with authority control and without it? What would you do? Rubén

Encoding and Character Sets in Koha
by Narcis Garcia 23 Aug '18

23 Aug '18

When cataloguing books with non-english characters, I see well saved strings at database (from OS console), but Koha web interface is not showing those unicode characters as expected. MariaDB works with character set utf8mb4 Apache works with charset UTF-8 All Koha database tables have collarion utf8_unicode_ci Koha HTML output is UTF-8 encoded and includes Content-Type... charset=utf-8 Using Koha 17.11.06-1 on Debian 9. I don't find Koha's system preferences about this. What can I review? Thanks.

Adding languages to Advanced Search
by Rubén Fernández Asensio 23 Aug '18

23 Aug '18

Hello again! I'm still trying to customize the Advanced Search. Now I need to add a language to the language search field. For some reason, it doesn't show Esperanto ("epo" according to ISO-639-2). Taking a look at file /usr/share/koha/opac/htdocs/opac-tmpl/bootstrap/en/modules/opac-advsearch.tt, which seems to govern Advanced Search interface, I find this: <fieldset> <legend>Language</legend>  <p> <label for="language-limit">Language: </label> <select id="language-limit" name="limit"> <option value="">No limit</option> [% FOREACH search_languages_loo IN search_languages_loop %] [% IF ( search_languages_loo.selected ) %] <option value="ln,rtrn:[% search_languages_loo.iso639_2_code %]" selected="selected">[% search_languages_loo.language_description %]</option> [% ELSE %] <option value="ln,rtrn:[% search_languages_loo.iso639_2_code %]">[% search_languages_loo.language_description %]</option> [% END %] [% END %] </select> </p>  </fieldset> So, what should I do to add a language and its description to the list, or at least to take a look at the built-in list "search_languages_loop"? Also, is there any way of writing code to select "any language but X"? Rubén

Hi there Apologies, I am sure there is a very obvious setting in admin that I am just missing but could someone let me know how I can set circulation so that is a patron has overdues that further checkouts are not allowed? I have set for no renewals with overdues but the librarian would like to also not allow further checkouts if a patron has overdues. Any help appreciated.

Install issue
by Michael Buhrley 21 Aug '18

21 Aug '18

I am new to Koha and have had the same issue on 3 different fresh Linux installs. I tried it with Debian 9, Ubuntu 18.04 and Ubuntu 16.04, all with the same problem. I followed the install instructions at https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Koha_on_ubuntu_-_packages <https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Koha_on_ubuntu_-_packages> No problem with the steps up to the install command but when issuing the sudo apt-get install koha-common I get the following: Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming. The following information may help to resolve the situation: The following packages have unmet dependencies: koha-common : Depends: libnet-oauth2-authorizationserver-perl but it is not going to be installed E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. I have tried installing linnet-oauth2-authorizationserver-perl separately but then I get this: The following packages have unmet dependencies: libnet-oauth2-authorizationserver-perl : Depends: libcryptx-perl (>= 0.021) but it is not installable E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. And then finally when trying to install libcryptx-perl I get: Package libcryptx-perl is not available, but is referred to by another package. This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source E: Package 'libcryptx-perl' has no installation candidate My /etc/apt/sources.list.d/koha.list contains deb http://debian.koha-community.org/koha stable main If I change that stable to 17.11 then it will install that version but I am unable to get it to install with “stable” in the repository. Please let me know if you have any thoughts regarding this. Thank you, Michael Buhrley mwb(a)idi.edu

IndependentBranches consequences
by anjoze 21 Aug '18

21 Aug '18

Hi. My Koha is running for many years. Now I want to turn ON IndependentBranches preference. On manual (https://koha-community.org/manual/18.05/en/html/systempreferences.html?high…) says: *Important* It is important that this value be set before going live and that it NOT be changed Does anyone knows what are the consequences or problems if I turn it ON?
