[Koha] New Indexes in OPAC

[Melissa Lefebvre]

Hi everyone,

 

I am new to Koha and am trying to set up our OPAC to have more searchable
indexes on the Advanced Search page which will search specific tags in the
MARC record.  We have added a note for our state children's award winners
and nominees to the 586 tag which I would like to be able to search on.
Here is what I've done so far:

 

1)      edited record.abs to include the MARC tag that I want to search on
(in this case 586$a)

2)      edited bib1.att and added attribute

3)      edited ccl.properties and added what the new indexes I wanted to be
(in this case wa) and pointed it to the attribute that I assigned in the
bib1.att

4)      added the option value to the opac-advsearch.tmpl

5)      reindexed

 

When I go to the Advanced search page and choose the Award Winner from the
drop down menu, and enter the wording on the tag's note, I don't get any
results.  What am I missing?  Do I have to add the index term of "wa" to
another file?

 

I am on Koha 3.01.00.002, debian etch.

 

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks,

Melissa
