[Koha] Getting the shelf location to show in the OPAC

[Elaine Bradtke]

I don't know if this happens in Darla's case, but something goes
seriously wrong with the 952 when I edit an item record.

The MARC records we imported don't display the call number in normal
view, even though it's in 952o.
The barcode number of an unedited item does display (952p)
However, the moment I touch an item record (entering the editing mode
for that item and then saving it, not actually clicking on any fields)
two things happen.

1) The barcode vanishes.  It is no longer in 952p (I tested this
several times, because I couldn't believe my eyes).  I typed the
barcode in again and saved the record, and we could see both barcode
and call number in the normal view.  But I went back to that same item
record, opened it in editing mode, and the barcode vanished again.

2) The call number appears. It was in the subfield all the time, but
now it displays in the normal view at the item level.


We're running 3.2, which is a slightly different version.  But I
wonder if our problems are related?

Any thoughts??  We really need both call number and barcode to
display, but certainly we can't afford to loose the barcodes we've
already got.
