Displaying patron image on Item Check-in
by Admire Mutsikiwa 02 May '18

02 May '18

Hi We are trying to use Koha for some system that requires the system to display the patron picture on check-in. Could you shade some light on how to achieve this.

Hello, I'm going to create "kohapg" for the purpose described in attachment. It seems easier for me to make a common system service than a Koha plugin.

Anonymous Search History
by Caroline Cyr-La-Rose 01 May '18

01 May '18

Hi All, I'm trying to figure out the search_history table in Koha. Are anonymous OPAC searches ever added to that table? My EnableOpacSearchHistory syspref is set to "Keep" and my AnonymousPatron syspref is set to 21. I see in the C4::Search::History that if a user is not logged in, the search history is saved in a cookie. But is it ever saved in the database? I'd like to know what words patrons use when they are searching, regardless of if they are logged in or not. Thanks! Caroline Cyr La Rose, MLIS Head of training and support, inLibro

Hi. In OPAC, it only shows material type like "Maps". Is it possible to also show the specific material designation? For example, "Maps : Atlas" and how to do it? Thank you. -- Ma. Victoria H. Silva-Manuel Registered Librarian, 3892

List lost items that has been returned?
by klas.blomberg＠skovde.se 29 Apr '18

29 Apr '18

Our plan is to use an external system for billing our users for lost books, and only mark them as lost in Koha. I have all pieces in place, except one: we need to know what lost books that have been returned (in last week or some other specified period) so we can know what bills should be withdrawn from the external system. Is this at all doable with Kohas reports? As the economic transactions not are going to take place in Koha there will be nothing in accountlines, and I haven't found any other candidates Klas Blomberg IT-bibliotekarie Stadsbiblioteket Skövde Kulturhus Skövde kommun 541 83 Skövde Direkttelefon 0500-49 85 18 Mobil 070-191 55 78 Kontaktcenter telefon 0500-49 80 00 www.skovde.se

Add Additional Patron attributes to Patron quickadd form
by Mai 29 Apr '18

29 Apr '18

Hi, I'm running Koha 16.11 on debian 8. I've created an authorised value category called "TIPO_PERSONAL", added a new patron attribute type named "RELACION" and linked it to that authorized value category. It appears correctly in the full form but I need this extended attribute to display in the Quick add patron form as well. I've edited the syspref PatronQuickAddFields to display other fields, such as address, but in this case I don't know the name of the field to add. What can I do? Thanks in advance, -- Maite Arakaki
