[Koha] Koha 3.4 OpacHiddenItems continued

[Linda Culberson]

Nicole,
I'm sure that you have an entry in your itemtypes.itemtype that  is 'BK' 
and I'm positive you have a branchcode that is "NIC" as well as having 
an items.itype=BK and a items.homebranch=NIC. Do you have something you 
could do  a test with that isn't the majority of your items?  Maybe if 
they are all "BK" it doesn't work.   I've verified that with ours it 
definitely  works;  But out of 145,679 items we have 10,186 that are 
itype 10 and 318 that are itype 07  so it's a relatively small group.
We don't have anything in ISO right now, and things that I thought were 
assigned using LOC=STAFF aren't in either Koha or our regular system, so 
those are 0 in both systems.  So I could probably drop that line if you 
want me to test it without it.
Linda
