08:23 magnuse hiya Archie^
08:25 ashimema christmas dashboard theme
08:25 ashimema awesome!
08:28 ashimema Francesca++
08:28 Francesca oh is it working?
08:28 sophie_m joined #koha
08:28 Francesca I didn't think it had been merged yet
08:28 Francesca *clears cookies*
08:29 ashimema it hasn't as far as I can see
08:29 ashimema but I'm looking foraward to it :)
08:29 Francesca Should be tomorrow hopefully
08:29 Francesca fingers crossed it all works!
08:29 Francesca hard to test fonts locally
08:30 ashimema I'd meant to do a Koha advent calendar this year.. but things got in the way :(
08:30 Francesca that would be super cool
08:30 Francesca I missed coding and I was like its christmas so need a theme to match
08:30 ashimema :)
08:31 Francesca I really should get back into web coding haha
08:31 ashimema we'd welcome you back with open arms ;)
08:31 Francesca awww
08:32 Francesca well you never know - maybe I'll do a matariki theme next year
08:32 ashimema oh, cool
08:33 Francesca I wanted to do one this year, but got too busy
08:33 Francesca so much potential
08:33 Francesca so little time
08:33 fridolin joined #koha
08:33 fridolin left #koha
08:33 * ashimema hopes it would include a tiny summary of what that is ;).. I love learning about stuff like that
08:33 Francesca yeah that would be useful
08:33 Francesca I don't really edit the HTML bc thats generated through some other way
08:33 fridolin joined #koha
08:33 Francesca buuut I'm sure rangi would put one in
08:34 Francesca or I could stick a link in
08:34 Francesca or something
08:34 wahanui something is broken
08:34 ashimema it's easy enough.. one of us could walk you through it.. I'd be happy to
08:35 Francesca oooh
08:35 Francesca that would be cool
08:35 fridolin hi community
08:35 Francesca hey
08:37 ashimema you could do it a couple of ways.. add a simple html block into the relevant template (/views/show_entries.tt) or get a little more clever and add a handler to load any arbitrary markdown or similar into a predescribed area in the template
08:37 ashimema Hi fridolin
08:37 Francesca interesting
08:37 Francesca I'll have to have a play around with that at some point
08:37 ashimema I'm jumping back on the bandwagon today.. finally going to catch up on the 18.11.x queue.. thankfully kidclamps been pretty quiet the last week ;)
08:40 Francesca ya know if you do get around to doing a koha advent calender
08:41 Francesca I will stick a link to it on the dashboard
08:41 ashimema :)
08:41 Francesca probably shouldn't try embedding direct into the dashboard page
08:41 Francesca its looking pretty crowded these days
08:42 ashimema yeah.. I've been thinking it could do with a little bit of a UI tidyup somehow
08:42 ashimema not come up with a nice alternative though yet ;)
08:42 ashimema I'm proud of the new build status badge table though.. I like that
08:42 Francesca I might have a play around as well
08:42 Francesca the dashboard used to be my baby when I was working at catalyst
08:42 Francesca before then as well actually
08:43 ashimema cool
08:43 Francesca I loved doing themes and stuff
08:43 ashimema it's served us really well.. I use it frequently
08:44 Francesca I think I still have screenshots somewhere of what it looked like before my catalyst academy
08:44 Francesca the build status table is neat
08:44 Francesca there should be more stuff like that
08:44 Archie^ so i was doing a cleanup of my test db (removing test libraries etc) and i removed 1 record from Issues and now KOHA runs SUPPER slowly
08:44 Archie^ :/
08:45 ashimema https://web.archive.org/web/20[…]community.org:80/
08:45 ashimema bit different aye
08:46 Francesca it didn't look like that when I started
08:46 ashimema wow.. were you at catalyst in 2013?
08:47 ashimema that's when it change to be a bit more like it is now
08:47 ashimema same basic layout, but not as pretty
08:47 ashimema https://web.archive.org/web/20[…]ha-community.org/
08:47 Francesca I made it pretty
08:47 Francesca yup thats it
08:47 Francesca I did the academy at the start of 2014
08:48 Francesca which is when I decided to turn it green - wasn't much good at bug fixing so wizzyrea (if I remember correctly) gave me that instead
08:48 Francesca it was a fun project
08:48 ashimema hehe: https://web.archive.org/web/20[…]community.org:80/
08:49 ashimema well.. I always apreciated the green.. just made it feel more friendly
08:49 Francesca yup that's right after I got to it lol
08:49 Francesca green is a nice colour
08:50 * Francesca is thinking
08:50 Francesca some of those long lists could be hidden with some html
08:51 Francesca drop down list or something
08:51 Francesca or tables
08:51 Francesca I like tables
08:51 ashimema I think some of them could posssibly be replaced by graphs
08:51 ashimema like the activity one.. that could make a nice time based chart
08:52 ashimema some things need text.. but in general a picture can speak a thausand words if you can work out what picture to show :)
08:52 Francesca yeah that would be cool
08:52 Francesca pictures are gooood
08:52 Francesca there used to be a graph??
08:52 Francesca I seem to remember
08:53 ashimema oh.. i don't remember that
08:53 Francesca huh
08:53 Francesca might be misremembering lol
08:53 Francesca wonder how you'd generate a graph
08:53 Francesca I've finished uni and currently looking for a job
08:53 Francesca now might be a good time for me to play with this
08:54 ashimema always good to showcase your skills
08:55 ashimema what did you study?
08:55 ashimema I'd probably use somthing like D3.js for graphs.. though there may be simpler, lighter, libraries out there
08:56 tuxayo hi koha o/
08:56 Francesca studied music
08:57 Francesca well, music studies
08:57 Francesca wrote big long essays
08:57 ashimema coolios
08:58 Francesca also toying with the idea of increasing the border curve on the banner
08:58 Francesca looks pretty darn cool when you up it

10:06 Francesca thanks magnuse!
10:06 ashimema @later tell tcohen looks like docker isn't happy for some reason
10:06 huginn ashimema: The operation succeeded.
10:06 Francesca should probably go back to packing though

10:08 magnuse nah, there is always time for a little coding first ;-)
10:08 magnuse "This patch adds 2 new js libraries: d3js and c3js:"
10:08 ashimema oh cool :)
10:09 magnuse ah "C3 makes it easy to generate D3-based charts by wrapping the code required to construct the entire chart. We don't need to write D3 code any more."
10:09 ashimema interesting
10:09 magnuse from https://c3js.org/
10:24 cait joined #koha
10:31 Archie^ Hey is it possible to make some sort of grouping inside of a particular library? In librarie we have here there are several FUNDS inside a 1 library (for instance 1 funds would be books available for reading on site, other fund is books available to take home etc)
10:31 kohaputti joined #koha
10:31 Francesca joined #koha
10:34 Francesca I'm back
10:34 Francesca the coding looks interestin
10:34 Francesca g
10:34 Francesca will play around tomorrow maybe
10:34 Francesca right now, gotta pack
10:34 Francesca its 11.30 pm NZ
10:44 kohaputti_ joined #koha
10:45 magnuse Archie^: do you mean grouping the funds in the acqusistions module? or grouping the books in the library? (or rather, make the grouping in the library visible in the catalogue?)
10:46 magnuse for the latter, there are things like collection and location and call number at the item level
10:48 Archie^ magnuse: i'm thinking funds in the acqusistions module (maybe?) basically it's a library within a library. Think of it as a "kids section" and "reading section"
10:54 Archie^ deffinately not acquisitions module
10:56 cait acquisitions speaks of funds when it's about money
10:57 cait i think you might be looking for another word
10:57 cait locations or collections, like magnuse suggested
10:58 * cait waves
11:03 cait kidclamp: around?
11:04 Archie^ what excatly is the call number? And by location do you mean shelf number?
11:05 cait call number = shelf number
11:05 cait location is something like... first floor
11:05 cait children's corner
11:05 cait new books shelf
11:05 cait whatever you want
11:06 Archie^ where can i find these location settings
11:06 Archie^ ?
11:06 cait they are authorised value
11:06 cait s
11:06 cait and then stored in 952$c in your item
11:07 Archie^ ok, maybe that will work
11:08 Archie^ thank you
11:10 cait Archie^: https://wiki.koha-community.or[…]data_fields_(9xx)
11:10 cait some mor einfo about al litem fields available
11:12 Archie^ thank you cait

11:42 andreashm hi gveranis
11:42 gveranis after upgrade to 18.11 xslt on Staff display not working for Detail view
11:42 gveranis and I don't get any error on log
11:43 gveranis I search for any related bug but not found much, the installation is unimarc mode
11:43 gveranis any idea ?
11:44 gveranis hi andrea
11:52 cait are you using your own xslt or the default ones?
11:52 Francesca g'night #koha
11:52 marcelr joined #koha
11:57 librarian joined #koha
11:58 gveranis the default one
11:59 gveranis I try on preferences to change the value of default to the path, but with no success
11:59 gveranis and the other strange thing is why I don't get something on log as error
12:00 gveranis all the other XSLT preferences working, only the one for display not working
12:11 cait which log did you check?
12:11 cait plack err log?
12:16 gveranis no I don't have enable plack
12:17 cait you should
12:17 cait :)
12:17 gveranis oh ok
12:17 gveranis thank
12:17 cait but the problem is probably a different on, but there should be something in th elogs
12:17 cait if you don't have plack.. it should be in the error logs
12:19 magnuse gveranis: could it be a caching issue? do you use memecached?
12:19 gveranis yes I restarted 2-3 times now
12:20 gveranis ok I found it , nothing with the upgrade . something in UNIMARCslimUtils.xsl . I suppose not showing on error log because this file is calling by xsl engine and not from perl source
12:21 gveranis thanks all

12:37 magnuse ashimema: speaking for myself, i'm not going to update anyone to .1 on december 23rd :-)
12:40 cait i have a presentation end of jan - hoping to do that with 18.11 :)
12:44 ashimema hehe
12:46 ashimema lol.. cait release on 22nd back in dec 2016
12:47 ashimema joubu waited till the 3rd in 2017
12:47 ashimema wow.. 16.11.01 actually had 34 bugfixes in that time too.. people must have been on form that year :)
12:48 ashimema I'll stick to schedule.. it'll be a tiny release but it keeps us all on target
12:48 cait still some more time to find bug and fix them too

13:07 Archie^ This library cannot be deleted. Patrons or items are still using it (1 items). <- i literally have no records in Issues and only 1 patron without any checkouts
13:07 magnuse ashimema++
13:07 oleonard Archie^: What about item records?
13:08 Archie^ oleonard: where can i find this?
13:08 wahanui i guess this is one of the things they were referring to this morning : https://www.mcgill.ca/library/[…]services-platform
13:09 oleonard Archie^: The items table has homebranch and holdingbranch columns
13:10 Archie^ items table is empty
13:24 Archie^ more then that, i removed the records from branches table and it is still in koha GUI :D

13:29 Joubu hi #koha
13:30 Joubu Archie^: the patron is using it
13:30 Archie^ Joubu: as i said before, there is only admin in borrowers tables and no items
13:32 Joubu borrowers.branchcode?
13:36 Archie^ Joubu: the branchcode is a different library that im not trying to remove
13:36 Archie^ i have 2 libraries
13:41 Joubu reading the code I have no other idea, we display the alert if select count(*) from borrowers where branchcode="XXX"; select count(*) from items where holdingbranch="XXX" or homebranch="XXX";
13:41 oleonard Is this something that a "restart_all" could help?
13:42 Archie^ koha restart_all ?
13:42 oleonard sorry I'm thinking in devbox terms
13:42 oleonard Restart plack and memcached
13:42 Archie^ oleonard: how to? :)
13:45 oleonard sudo koha-plack --disable kohainstancename
13:45 oleonard sudo service memcached restart
13:45 oleonard sudo service apache2 restart
13:45 oleonard sudo koha-plack --enable kohainstancename

14:01 nage joined #koha
14:02 Archie^ so ok, i have 2 libraries. Trying to delete 1 of them but it says "This library cannot be deleted. Patrons or items are still using it (1 items)." Issues table is empty, Items table is empyt. How?!
14:06 Joubu please return the value of the 2 SQL queries I gave before
14:08 Archie^ select count(*) from borrowers where branchcode="XXX" Count = 0  select count(*) from items where holdingbranch="XXX" or homebranch="XXX"; count = 0
14:09 Archie^ so the history of this issue is, i had 1 record in issues and i removed it via DB
14:09 Joubu you replaced XXX with the branchcode's library you are trying to remove, right?
14:12 Archie^ hmm one sec
14:12 Archie^ yah
14:13 Joubu what about your koha's version?
14:23 Archie^ 18.05
