Koha delete Item type
by Decka David 19 Apr '16

19 Apr '16

Hi Koha Team, After installing Koha 3.20 on Ubuntu 14.04 and setting up libraries and items type and other necessary customization of modules, I did a mistake on Item type which I would like to delete one of the Item type. I found the mistake after doing a catalogue test to one of the item and I wanted to delete the item type but I could not. I got the message saying; cannot delete item type. The record is used 1 times. Deletion is not possible. Can someone help to advice simple way to delete the item type or has someone have similar issue before that advice. Thanks and appreciate any feedbacks so I can start complete the Koha setup. Decka PNG

Search results display (opac-facets.inc)
by King, Fred 18 Apr '16

Hello everyone, I'm running Koha 3.20.05 on Ubuntu 14.04. It's on our Intranet, so I can't give you a link yet. I'm trying to figure out how to modify the display of search results; in particular, a couple of fields displayed by the file opac-facets.inc in /usr/share/koha/opac/htdocs/opac-tmpl/bootstrap/en/includes. First one: In the Item types administration (http://(intranet):8282/cgi-bin/koha/admin/itemtypes.pl) I have an itype with a code of "ART" and description of "Journal Article." Let's say I go to the main Koha search screen and type in "shorr." On the right-hand side, I get the records as formatted by results.xsl. No problem there. However, on the left-hand side under "Item types" I get both "art" and "Journal Article." The links to "art" look like this: http://(intranet):82/cgi-bin/koha/opac-search.pl?idx=kw&q=shorr&sort_by=relevance_dsc&limit=itype:art whereas the articles to "Journal Article" look like this: http://(intranet):82/cgi-bin/koha/opac-search.pl?idx=kw&q=shorr&sort_by=relevance_dsc&limit=itype:ART If I try narrowing by clicking on either term, or both terms, the number is the same, so it isn't a matter of different records formatted different ways. Somewhere in the depths of Koha, "Item types" is drawing information from both the Item type code and the Item type description. Is there an easy way to change the display to just show the Item type description? Second one: The "Topics" field displays five subject headings (650$a), and when I click on "Show more" it displays 20 subject headings. Is there a way to display ALL the subject headings turned up by this particular search? There will be a lot of them, but I want to display them all for this catalog.

Re: [Koha] Koha in school library

Hi, Welcome to community. What is the data size or collection? On 18-Apr-2016 5:40 PM, "Deb Vincent" <library(a)tggsacademy.org> wrote: Hi all I have cancelled my existing ILS to switch to Koha in our school library. Unfortunately I had to give a year's notice to terminate the contract, but on the plus side it gives me more time to set up Koha properly before making the switch. So far, our IT team have set up Koha on the server, and I have been able to load existing students to the system. My main difficulty is going to be importing our existing catalogue. I can export the basic data from our current ILS in an Excel spreadsheet, but not marc format. I know I can convert from Excel to marc21 using MarcEdit, but I am not yet familiar enough with the marc system to understand how to do this. I would be very grateful for any advice. Also, is there any way of importing barcodes of existing holdings at the same time, or does this have to be done manually after the catalogue records have been imported? Many thanks. _______________________________________________ Koha mailing list http://koha-community.org Koha(a)lists.katipo.co.nz https://lists.katipo.co.nz/mailman/listinfo/koha

New to Koha, but very interested
by Joseph Hogan 16 Apr '16

16 Apr '16

Hello, My name is Joe. I am writing because we are in discussions with a possible college campus looking to update the searching ability on the campus. We found Koha and the features seem full and rich. We have more technical questions about installing a new library and sharing server with multiple libraries. I will ask a couple of questions, and then follow up, depending on the replies I get. 1 - The campus has more then one library on campus: 1 for physical sciences 1 for medecine 1 for social sciences How can this be treated? Can one installation cover for a campus allow for the location data to include which building/library, or even on which campus it might be located? 2 - Can we run multiple instances of Koha on the same server? I ask because any other the documentation that I have read always mentioned 1 server, 1 koha. If this works well for us, there are a couple of other libraries interested in working with us. We want to under stand the resources needed. 1 koha per server, or many per server? 3 - Can Koha be installed to run from a particular folder? We already have our server up and running, and if they can just be installed in a directory of a web page installation? This is just my beginning. We are trying to understand the software in order to know what is possible or now. Thanks! Joe

Any downside of running Koha's z39.50 service on port 210?
by Indranil Das Gupta 15 Apr '16

15 Apr '16

Hi all, Most typical Koha z39.50 setups seem to run it on non-privileged port 9999. Now 210 tcp/udp is earmarked for z3950. Question: with a package based install is there any possible downside (especially security wise) to run on port 210? Anything that I should particularly look out for? thanks in anticipation -idg -- Indranil Das Gupta L2C2 Technologies Phone : +91-98300-20971 IRC : indradg on irc://irc.freenode.net Twitter : indradg -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-==-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Please exchange editable Office documents only in ODF Format.
