[Koha] dewey class and subclass etc

[Dana Huff]

Stephen,
Did the display of "class" begin with a particular release? Or is there some other contingency? My OPAC search screens only show the biblioitems.dewey value and the number displays to 6 decimal places. The biblioitems.subclass field, though populated in the db, does not show up. 

I have installed Koha2.0.0-W32-R0. 

Is this a question for the W32 list?

Any help appreciated.

Thanks,
Dana Huff

Eric, Koha puts biblioitems.classification, biblioitems.dewey, and
biblioitems.subclass together to form the "class" value displayed on
search screens.  So for instance, if you had an item with the call number:

REF
781.23
Brown

The classsification would be "REF", the dewey (which must be a number)
would be "781.23" and the subclass would be "Brown".  And search screens
would return a "class" of "REF 781.23 Brown".

Edit the data by editing the MARC tags/subfields that you have mapped to
biblioitems.classification, biblioitems.dewey, and biblioitems.subclass.
