Translators - Do not wrap strings in PO files
by Jonathan Druart 11 Oct '23

11 Oct '23

Hello, I have a question for translators: do you like how strings are wrapped in PO files? In the context of moving our translations server to weblate we will have to reorder the PO files, and maybe we could take that opportunity for other changes. One of them could be to not wrap lines, and have a single long line instead. For instance: Now: msgid "" "%s %sSpring%s %s %sSummer%s %s %sFall%s %s %sWinter%s %s %sSpr%s %s %sSum%s " "%s %sFal%s %s %sWin%s %s %s %s " msgstr "" "%s %sPrintemps%s %s %sÉté%s %s %sAutomne%s %s %sHiver%s %s %sPrtps%s %s " "%sÉté%s %s %sAut%s %s %sHiv%s %s %s %s" After: msgid "%s %sSpring%s %s %sSummer%s %s %sFall%s %s %sWinter%s %s %sSpr%s %s %sSum%s %s %sFal%s %s %sWin%s %s %s %s " msgstr "%s %sPrintemps%s %s %sÉté%s %s %sAutomne%s %s %sHiver%s %s %sPrtps%s %s %sÉté%s %s %sAut%s %s %sHiv%s %s %s %s" For those who translate directly in the PO files, which version do you like more?

Restrict suggestions shown on OPAC
by Ms. Naveen Ali 11 Oct '23

11 Oct '23

Greetings!! We are using Koha 22.11 on Ubuntu. https://eakl.neduet.edu.pk I was wondering if there is a way to restrict the suggestions shown on the OPAC. Currently we see all the suggestions that have been entered in the system. I see an option to purge suggestions. If I purge suggestions based on date, it will remove the related information of Requesting patron and Funds, etc which is required for reporting purpose because th e suggestions are endorsed by Department Chairpersons. I only want to restrict display on OPAC. With best regards, Naveen Ali ITM-JE (EAKL) Inst Representative for HEC Digital Library Resources. NEDUET, Karachi.

Working with nginx and installing on URL prefixes
by Daniel Bünzli 09 Oct '23

09 Oct '23

Hello, I’m trying to make an install of koha to consider migrating to it from another ILS. Given our existing infrastructure the setup scheme of koha on different domains is not entirely convenient for us nor is using apache (even if only proxied by nginx we rather not add more moving part to our infrastructure). Ideally we would like to be able to have: 1. The opac on say example.org/koha/catalogue 2. The staff interface on say example.org/koha/intranet 3. Use the official debian packages 4. Use nginx directly instead of apache I haven’t been succeeding so far. But I’m at a point where I can `koha-plack —start mylib` and convince nginx to talk to plack on the prefixes by having: location /koha/intranet { include proxy_params; proxy_pass unix:/var/run/koha/mylib/plack.sock:/intranet/mainpage.pl; proxy_buffer_size 8k; } location /koha/catalogue { include proxy_params; proxy_pass unix:/var/run/koha/mylib/plack.sock:/opac; proxy_buffer_size 8k; } I gather there’s an additional bunch of rewrites rules in the the apache configuration files that I will have to port at some point but one thing I’m stuck on is that when I try to access `example.org/koha/intranet` it redirects to the root of the domain `example.org/cgi-bin…` rather than `example.org/koha/intranet/cgi-bin…` to trigger the install procedure. So here are two questions: a) Is there an easy way to convince koha to root its URLs w.r.t. to the prefix we’d like them to be on ? Maybe an environment variable or a launch parameter or an http header to set in the nginx configuration ? (I’m a bit unfamiliar with the whole plack/starman eco-system) b) Is there any strong problem I’m not seeing in trying to setup koha the way I outlined above and use nginx rather than apache to serve the app ? Thanks, Daniel P.S. I also vaguely considered the `app.psgi` part of the source distribution but this workflow doesn’t seem to be documented or supported in the debian packages from which I rather not deviate too much.

Virtual patron card in Koha
by Laurence Rault 09 Oct '23

09 Oct '23

Hi, Has someone already implemented a virtual patron card in Koha ? e.g. no printed card, only virtual one that patron can import in one app. Is it enough to send ACCTDETAILS with the barcode inside ? Is it possible to insert the barcode in the notice ? Thank you, Greetings, Laurence Rault -- ------------------------ Laurence Rault Responsable Pôle Développement BibLibre http://www.biblibre.com laurence.rault(a)biblibre.com p. 06 27 85 46 49

Re: [Koha] Email for suggestion book

Yesterday, one of my patrons thanked me for the availability of the book he suggested. He got an email from the library. That meant the system worked again.
