[Koha] Issues with superlibrarian

[Liz Rea]

Zachary,
Probably what you want to do is create another patron/staff user, and give that user Superlibrarian privileges. You can then assign a "home library" to that user, log in as that user, and the dropdowns will be populated correctly.

I'm making an assumption here: that you are logging in as the koha user that you use to update your database (go through the web installer). That user is supposed to be used ONLY for that function, and not for everyday cataloging functions.

Any account can be given superlibrarian privileges, and any other account besides the original superlibrarian can be assigned a home branch. 

I hope this helps, please let us know if you change your user and you're still having trouble.
