[Koha] Customisation in Staff Clinet Interface of Koha (Owen Leonard)

Dear Owen

Thanks for your reply.

Please clarify on having multiple CSS files for a single installation for
both staff client interface and web OPAC.

When Koha installed for multiple libraries spread across the region or
within the campus (central library / departmental libraries, etc). 

1. Can we have individual OPAC for each library, with customized interface? 
2. Regarding the staff interface of the koha
	a. can we do merging two different modules into single module?
	b. can we have customized icon instead of text based hyperlink?

Thanks and Regards

Nicole, we are just getting started building our self checks.  We have a
desensitizer brick embedded right under the scanner, and not connected
to anything.  When you scan your item for check out, it desensitizes at
the same time.  Yes, you can desensitize without checking anything out.
We feel that any losses incurred due to patrons desensitizing the items
without checking them out will be more than offset by the savings in
building and maintaining our own machines.  I have spoken to other
libraries that have come to the same conclusion.  Anyway, this is how we
are starting with our self checks.

For libraries that are using Koha's self checkout module I'm wondering
how you're desensitizing books so that they don't set off your
security devices - or do you not have security devices.

Thanks in advance,

Hi all,

My library has recently finished cataloging our *entire* collection into
Koha, which was a great and easy process! However, now comes the
troubleshooting part, and we're running into a LOT of problems. Unless I'm
searching for a specific title or author, I get this as the result:

Error: Can't call method "as_usmarc" on an undefined value at
/usr/share/koha/lib/C4/Search.pm line 2384.

That error message is yielded for nearly every keyword search, for things
that I know are in our collection. Suggestions? I am using the latest Koha
installation.

I have added by Koha banner  masthead.inc in the en/include directory so
that it can appear  on top of the OPAC page, well above the Log into  2Your
Account Message".  And my body css tag is defined as follows

body {

        background-color : FFFFCC;

        text-align : left;

         padding : 0 ;

         margin: 0 ;  

}

 

However, my  banner is leaving spaces on all sides.  How can I remove the
spaces?

 

Regards,

 

Admire Mutsikiwa

Is the OPAC public so we can see the problem firsthand?

There are three basic ways to change the Koha interface:

1. CSS
2. JavaScript (DOM manipulation using the IntranetUserCSS system preference)
3. Template edits

1 and 2 are very much preferable given the long-term maintenance
problems inherent in trying to maintain a customized set of templates
through upgrades.

These might be best hidden by removing the privileges from the staff
users in question.

I don't understand the goal is behind this question.
