shelf browser not working
Hello, I noticed that the shelf browser feature is not functioning for me. When I click on it in the OPAC, for any record, it causes the page to blink/reset but it does not actually work. I assume that clicking on an arrow should allow me to see the previous or next catalog item in call number order, correct? I double-checked the sys pref and the shelf browser is on. I am running Koha v. 3.00. My collection is quite small (less than 10,000 bibs). Any ideas? Thanks. a Amy C.

Hi Amy Can you go to the about page (in the staff side), and find the exact version number you are running there please. Chris
It is 3.0001005. -----Original Message----- From: Chris Cormack [mailto:chris@bigballofwax.co.nz] Sent: Thursday, April 08, 2010 3:38 PM To: Amy Schuler Cc: koha@lists.katipo.co.nz Subject: Re: [Koha] shelf browser not working 2010/4/8 Amy Schuler <schulera@caryinstitute.org>:

When I first started working on Koha last year, I noticed this problem for one of our clients. In our case, it had to with the the items.location field being NULL. The outcome was the SQL query would not return any results. At any rate, I wrote a patch for it, although I don't have the commit hash number.

Cool thank you.
I will check if there was a bug that has been fixed between that version (its a few years old now) and the current stable.

Found it http://git.koha.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=Koha;a=commit;h=d5d21fe1018adf6fcb1... So yes Amy, it looks like that was a bug that has been fixed in Koha. (Thanks David) Chris
Thanks Chris for finding this. I was going to try and look for this off head, but you beat me to it :-) On Thu, Apr 8, 2010 at 7:28 PM, Chris Cormack <chris@bigballofwax.co.nz>wrote:

Thanks! My patrons really liked the shelf browser feature in our old catalog system (in fact the shelf browser was the only good thing about it), so it will be good to get it working in Koha. Have a great weekend everyone. -----Original Message----- From: Chris Cormack [mailto:chris@bigballofwax.co.nz] Sent: Thursday, April 08, 2010 7:28 PM To: Birmingham, Dave Cc: Amy Schuler; koha@lists.katipo.co.nz Subject: Re: [Koha] shelf browser not working On 9 April 2010 10:52, Birmingham, Dave <dbirmingham@ptfs.com> wrote:

One thing that our patrons found confusing about the Koha shelf browser was the "Browse Shelf" link. Many times patrons thought that we had an actual Browse Shelf, a physical location in the library, and would ask where it was. Our support company, PTFS, changed the link to "Browse the Shelves" instead and we have not had the same confusion since. -Rich Boulet Richard Boulet Library Director Blue Hill Public Library 207.374.5515x13 -----Original Message----- From: koha-bounces@lists.katipo.co.nz [mailto:koha-bounces@lists.katipo.co.nz] On Behalf Of Amy Schuler Sent: Friday, April 09, 2010 10:50 AM To: Chris Cormack; Birmingham, Dave Cc: koha@lists.katipo.co.nz Subject: Re: [Koha] shelf browser not working Thanks!
