We have computers in our library which are only used as OPACs - we would like to set up these OPAC computers to clear search history/login info/cart contents etc. after a certain period of inactivity (perhaps 2-3 minutes). So that when you sit down at an OPAC in the library you are not already logged into someone else's account. Does anyone have a solution for how to set this up?
We have already experimented with the "timeout" admin system preference. It does not do the trick, because we do not want to staff to be logged out of our staff module after a period of inactivity, and we do not want folks accessing their account from home to get logged out of their account automatically. We just need a solution for the OPAC computers in the library. Thanks for your help!
if those PCs are only for OPAC, the best idea is not to work on Koha but to work on PCs. You need to build a 'Kiosk Pc' and setup a timed reset for the browser. See on google to find how to build a 'Kiosk Pc' (I suggest Linux as OS but it is a you choice). As default url of the browser insert the logout link , http://<your site>/cgi-bin/koha/opac-main.pl?logout.x=1>. So, with every browser reset, you have also a logout.
