New OPAC CSS suggestion
by Claire Gravely 16 Aug '18

16 Aug '18

Hi all, At the Marseille Hackfest this year Owen and I discussed modernising the look of the Koha OPAC. I have written a patch with a suggestion for updated styling, which can be found on bug 20554 https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=20554. Functionality of the OPAC has not been changed, just the styling. I have added some screenshots to the bug. Any feedback is welcome, as is testing ;) (A note for those wanting to test, once the patches have been applied you will need to compile the Sass files, see https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Working_with_SCSS_in_the_OPAC_and_staf… ) And massive thanks to Owen for the help with patch-submission and rebasing J Cheers, Claire

Re: [Koha] Worldcat's xISBN Web service, down?

Thanks Bryan (and others who replied me privately). Do not hesitate to inform the Koha dev team when something like that happens, it seems that none of the Koha devs were aware of that change. We are gonna be a bit late then, but I will submit a patch in the next few hours to remove the related code.

Requesting opinions on proposed change to AuthDisplayHierarchy
by Owen Leonard 13 Aug '18

13 Aug '18

Thanks to everyone who weighed in on my question about the cataloging interface. I have another one: If the AuthDisplayHierarchy system preference is turned on, hierarchies of authority records are displayed via a JavaScript plugin which makes a collapsible tree of authority links. I propose that this be replaced with a static, CSS-styled tree. Doing so would cut one JavaScript plugin dependency. >From the bug report (https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=21128) here's a screenshot of the updated OPAC view: https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/attachment.cgi?id=77307 And in the staff client: https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/attachment.cgi?id=77308 At my library we don't use this feature, so I don't really know how it is used in production. Are authority hierarchies often so "deep" that having a collapsible display is preferred? If so, could clicking to show or hide the entire tree be a viable alternative? Thanks, Owen -- Web Developer Athens County Public Libraries http://www.myacpl.org
