[Koha] Customising the Koha OPAC

[Joel Harbottle]

Hi All,

I would like to make some changes to my Koha OPAC with how it display¹s
Bibliographic Details on the OPAC Detail¹s page, in three particular areas
of the screen.

1. Title Display

    At present, the item¹s Title displays as how it normally displays in the
Koha OPAC. But, I would like to add onto this current display format.

    For example, two titles I currently have in the catalogue:
    
        The monster book of manga : girls / edited by Ikari Studio.
        MARC Format:            245 04 $aThe monster book of manga : $bgirls
/ $cedited by Ikari Studio.
        Koha OPAC Display:   The monster book of manga : girls /

            I would like this to display on the OPAC Detail¹s page as: The
monster book of manga : girls / edited by Ikari Studio.

        Printer. Deskjet D2560 [equipment] / Hewlett-Packard.
        MARC Format:            245 10 $aPrinter. $nDeskjet D2560
$h[equipment] / $cHewlett-Packard.
        Koha OPAC Display:   Printer.

            I would like this to display on the OPAC Detail¹s page as:
Printer. Deskjet D2560 [equipment] / Hewlett-Packard.

2. Publication Details

    At present, the Item¹s Publication details show on the OPAC Detail¹s
page as:

        Published by : Collins Design, (New York, N.Y. :)

    I would like this to display on the OPAC Details page as: - Published by
: New York, N.Y. : Collins Design, 2008.

3. Physical Details

At present, the Koha OPAC will only display the data that is entered in tags
300 $a, $b, $c on the OPAC Detail¹s page, but I would like to extend this
to display the fields 300 $a, $b, $c, $e.

At present details would be listed as per normal, e.g. 64 p. : ill. (some
col.) ; 28 cm., but if there is any data in 300$e (Accompanying material) it
won¹t display in the OPAC display.

I would the 300$e (Accompanying field) to display in the OPAC Detail¹s
display if there is data in the field, e.g.: 64 p. : ill. (some col.) ; 28
cm. + 2 posters.


I have looked through the Koha manuals to see there is any mention of how to
make these changes to the OPAC Details page, but have been unsuccessful on
finding anything.

Does anyone in the Koha community have knowledge on how to make these
changes they would be willing to share with me please?!

Kindest Regards,
Joel
