We were on 3.2 before the upgrade. It's not something I noticed myself, but then I don't use the OPAC. My boss says they were there (and he doesn't use the staff interface). We haven't customized Koha. We don't allow holds, so it would not have been in the holds context. Elaine On Tue, May 31, 2011 at 11:29 AM, Chris Cormack <chris@bigballofwax.co.nz> wrote:

We recently upgraded to 3.04.01 - Staff who work in the reading room have told me they can no longer see the item barcodes in the OPAC. I have a feeling this has something to do with the way Koha now handles the item records.
The MARC framework is set to display barcodes (952p) in the OPAC. But they don't appear anywhere. As a stopgap I tried to get it to display in the ISBD but that doesn't work either.
Barcodes are critical in our library as a means of differentiation between multiple (sometimes annotated) copies shelved in different locations. Many of our readers make use of them. Is there any way I can get them to display in the OPAC, or do I have to request an enhancement/ bug fix?
Hi Elaine
Did they used to show? If so, in what version?
I can't recall barcodes showing in the OPAC except when placing a hold (they show there in 3.4.1) but I could be mistaken. (Or maybe it was a local customisation?)
