Some records are not searchable

Hi. We transferred our Koha to a new server. After the transfer, records created from November 2017 to August 28, 2018 are not searchable anymore. However, records created after the transfer are searchable. Any idea how to fix this problem. Thank you. -- Ma. Victoria H. Silva-Manuel Registered Librarian, 3892

Greetings! Our library just migrated to Koha at the end of June and this is my first time posting to the list as a Koha user. I'm so happy to be part of the open source library community! I'm trying to create a search widget for our course reserves. If anyone has code they could share, or any guidance, it would be most appreciated. Thanks, Joelle -- Joelle Hannert Library Technical Services Coordinator Northwestern Michigan College (231) 995-1684 Work days: M evening, W, Th, F

Hi all I am working on my talk for Kohacon18 titled Untold Tales of Koha. I have lots of stories to share, but if anyone has any photos/stories they would like to send to me to add I would love it. I have things so far like baby clothes, replacing laptops, the Queensland floods, Nigerian universities, but I can always use more. Thanks in advance Chris

Re: [Koha] [ByWater Partners] Public library with student accounts

Thanks, Alex! This is very helpful. How are you hiding patron categories?

Deleted preinstalled authority types
by Rubén Fernández Asensio 29 Aug '18

29 Aug '18

Hello, I think the title says it all. I'm planning on using only Personal name authorities, so I tried to delete the others. Now I find errors when I run the MARC bibliographic framework test: invalid authority types Not all authority types referred to by the frameworks are defined. Framework code Framework description Etiqueta Subfield Invalid authority type Default framework 648 a CHRON_TERM Default framework 650 a TOPIC_TERM Default framework 651 a GEOGR_NAME Default framework 654 a TOPIC_TERM Default framework 656 a TOPIC_TERM Default framework 657 a TOPIC_TERM Default framework 658 a TOPIC_TERM Default framework 662 a GEOGR_NAME Default framework 690 a TOPIC_TERM Default framework 691 a GEOGR_NAME I assume if I edit the Default framework I'll botch my Koha installation even more. How can I recreate the deleted types? Also, is there any way of hiding unused authority types from the user's authority search interface? Thanks, Ruben

You are getting the 404 error from where? OPAC or the staff client? On Wed 29 Aug, 2018, 12:52 PM Hira Akram, <hira.akram(a)almusnet.com> wrote: > > > Hi > > Thank You. I am able to upload file now.
