[Koha] OPAC templates question

[Doug Dearden]

Hi,
Let me preface by saying that our local template wizard (Liz) is off  
today and I'm anxious for an answer...so I thought I'd ask the list.

In Koha 3 on the template koha/opac-search.pl, is there an easy way to 

have the $n and $p of the 245 display on the hit list?

This is an issue in both the staff client and the OPAC with graphic  
novels, such as Naruto.  Without the $p or $n showing up in the hit  
list, a patron or staff member can't easily determine which of the 34 

volumes of Naruto they want to request.

Is this a change that can be made on our local set of templates or  
would others in the koha community appreciate seeing the entire 245 on 

the opac-search and opac-detail screens?

Sharon,

I think what you are trying to do can be accomplished using the staff
client and chaning the values in the 245 n and p subfields "hidden"
attribute.  See this page in the documentation, and read about the
different values that can be used in the "hidden" attribute.

Make sure you make the changes to the framework that is used to catalog
the items in question.

Best,

Doug
