Time Nick Message 11:18 hdl (if you got up early) 11:18 hdl kados around ? 20:24 owen Ciao all 20:24 kados laters 20:22 kados it needs testing for sure, but it's supposed to be integrated with every module that needs notices 20:22 owen And it's integrated with the various modules? I see there's a module selection list 20:20 kados it's for customizing messages sent to patrons as part of notification 20:19 kados it needs to be renamed to 'notices' 20:09 owen Anyone know about the new "letters" tool in Koha 3? 18:26 ryan time for a 'parsenotesfieldsforlongurls' system pref :) 18:23 ryan np - thx for looking 18:23 owen ryan, I'm sorry I'm not of more help to you on this one 18:21 ryan so i don't know if they're there unless i parse them. 18:21 ryan yes, i've done that for urls, but these are randomly in notes fields. 18:19 hdl I did this for some sys prefs and it worked fine. 18:19 owen That would require manipulation of the data in the MARC field 18:19 hdl ? 18:19 hdl ryan have you tried putting url in <a href=""> click there </a> 18:19 owen I can't even get it to do overflow:hidden with an explicit width declared. I'm not sure what the solution is 18:13 owen Yeah. That's a toughie 18:12 ryan but no go, i guess because the sidebar is floated right ? 18:12 ryan tried an overflow:auto 18:12 ryan notes fields have long urls all over the place. 18:11 ryan http://mhpl.kohalibrary.org/cgi-bin/koha/opac-detail.pl?bib=6 18:11 owen Sure 18:11 ryan i've got a css question for you if you have time 18:10 owen yes 18:09 ryan owen: are you around ? 17:34 kados tim: did you see my private message? 17:34 kados cool 17:27 tim I think we've been sending some business your way. At least people have been telling us that they're leaning in that direction. 17:26 tim I think it could be connected to the 99% CPU usage problem I had a while back. I just noticed we're having it again. 17:24 tim All the time from what I hear. I don't do cataloging. 17:23 kados hmmm, all the time, or just specific circumstances? 17:22 tim We're getting a 500 error in addbiblio.pl. 17:21 kados tim: long time ... how's it going? 17:21 kados hey tim 16:27 hdl kados : can that be fixed ? only if we hide <add category> when it is not used in borrower categories. 16:26 kados cool 16:26 paul nope, sanop++ 16:26 kados paul_hdl++ 16:26 kados ahh, cool 16:25 paul (through a systempref) 16:25 paul kados : that one is already done 16:25 kados so that's another example of what we need in a table :-) 16:25 kados one issue is that fields that are mandatory for some clients are not for others 16:25 hdl kados : yes 16:25 kados ahh, for members? 16:24 hdl input checking. 16:24 kados file checking? 16:24 hdl at the moment, i am working on file checking. 16:24 kados annoying-- 16:24 kados can that be fixed? 16:23 hdl You can have them. But you cannot add a borrower category... Which could be annoying. 16:23 dewey nothing is probably :w by default 16:23 hdl Nothing. 16:22 kados what happens if you don't have all of them? 16:22 hdl provided you have all of them yes. 16:17 kados it works for all patron types? 16:10 hdl Only needs a bit of reordering fields and inputs. 16:09 hdl add and modify worked for me. 16:07 owen I was adding the new page elements to a template paul sent me 16:06 paul kados : hdl can answer to this question too... 16:06 kados owen: you're to the point of working on templates? 16:06 kados so how is member entry stuff progressing? 15:44 hdl But paul and you can settle things. 15:43 kados yes, similar actually 15:42 hdl But it would be quite the same as a framework stuff. 15:42 hdl I now see how we could do. 15:42 hdl OK. 15:42 hdl Maybe having all the fieldnames columns into a table and its attachment. 15:42 kados only thing stored in the database table is the layout information 15:41 kados the only thing stored is the layout information 15:41 kados the text is in the template still 15:41 hdl b) you have to cope with translation. 15:40 hdl a) you have 3 "types" of borrowers Children, professional, adults and other. 15:40 kados hdl: so you can say what column it shows up in, and what order it should be in 15:40 kados hdl: in a table they have 'page element', 'flag for visible/invisible', 'order', 'column' 15:40 paul (CAN_user_XXX is filled automatically by get_template_and_user() ) 15:39 kados hdl: many projects have done this 15:39 paul owen : <!-- TMPL_IF name="CAN_user_XXXX" --> <!-- /TMPL_IF --> where XXX is one of the permission will do the job 15:39 hdl kados : about your suggestion of storing in database what fields you use. i am not quite sure it could be an option. 15:39 paul so cataloguing could be in the main menu & hidden for most users that can't catalogate 15:38 kados so that if you don't have permissions to cataloging, you don't see it in the list 15:38 kados it should be added 15:38 kados paul: yes, 100% agreed 15:38 paul (that is not the case atm if I don't mind) 15:38 kados it's quite simple to make small changes that don't affect the rest of Koha 15:38 kados it's also an advantage i think, of the new organization 15:38 paul note that the menu should be permission sensitives. 15:37 paul that could do the job. 15:36 kados and you use a different include for libraries that want different organization? 15:36 kados what if we have a syspref 15:36 kados paul: regarding the main menu 15:36 kados I agree with owen 15:36 paul you agree to what ? 15:35 kados I agree 15:33 owen I don't see how the current system of storing cities as authorized values can work when there's no field for state 15:33 paul (it's more important than the patron elements I think) 15:32 paul what about my previous idea, about main menu content ? 15:31 kados does that idea make sense? 15:31 paul yep 15:31 kados owen, paul? 15:23 kados but overall, not very difficult to create IMO 15:23 kados this would require a table to store that information, a script to manage it, and changes to the script to print the elements in the proper order, etc. 15:23 kados I think we need to consider whether we could make the layout and elements that show up on member entry configurable by the library 15:22 kados looking back 15:22 kados guys ... 14:41 paul (your wife could have worked for a library as well...) 14:41 paul owen : lol 14:40 owen My inclination for public libraries is purely professional! 14:40 owen Heh... inclination is indeed an English word, but it doesn't that dual meaning :) 14:00 paul (in french, it's usually used for love affairs ;-) ) 13:59 paul (/me not sure that "inclination" is english, neither is has the same dual-meaning as in french...) 13:58 paul owen, I know your inclinations ;-) 13:58 paul (note that it would not be too hard to have a specific git branch for "conservation libraries") 13:57 owen I am very heavily public library oriented, so I'm biased. It's an important discussion. 13:57 paul that's why I really liked the left menu, with more entries. 13:57 paul a library like IPT has "cataloguing" as it's 1st used link. 13:57 owen I'd like to get kados' input here as well, but I'm not sure he's still around 13:56 paul owen : this is heavily public library oriented... 13:56 owen If we want to have context-sensitive links for workflows, we should look at the left-hand menu, I think 13:56 owen Paul, the top menu is for the most commonly used links, regardless of context 13:56 paul (with sub menu) 13:56 paul I think we could have a main toolbar with book related things in 1 menu. 13:55 paul in circulation, I put issue-returns-reserves 13:55 paul in patrons workflow, I put registration-fines-... 13:55 paul in book workflow, I put : suggestion-acquisition-cataloguing-catalogue 13:54 paul - circulation, that is between book & patrons. 13:54 paul - patrons workflow 13:54 paul - book workflow 13:54 paul I usually divide the library processes in 3 parts : 13:53 paul and serials / acquisition could be discussed imho 13:53 paul cataloguing should be here too. 13:53 paul why is there only circulation, patrons and catalogue. 13:53 paul owen : about the main toolbar (on the top) 13:46 owen Okay 13:46 hdl Working on that. 13:46 hdl soon. 13:46 hdl It will be. 13:43 owen Is it not possible to "edit all" ? 13:43 owen I see... the edit link is in moremember. 13:37 owen Does that mean there is a link somewhere to "tab 2, contact information" ? 13:36 hdl the page of the information you want to edit. 13:36 hdl BUT when editing, you have only one page. 13:36 owen This implies that the script can load a particular tab? 13:35 owen <!--/TMPL_IF--> 13:35 owen <div name="step_3" id="step3" class="content_visible"> 13:35 owen <!--TMPL_ELSE--> 13:35 hdl I fact, tabs are used ONLY for complete registration (add) 13:35 owen <div name="step_3" id="step3" class="content_hidden"> 13:35 owen <!--TMPL_IF Name="step_1"--> 13:35 owen <!--TMPL_IF Name="step_3"--> 13:35 hdl I think we could add a quick registration page with only mandatory fields. 13:35 owen I wanted to confirm. It's not clear from looking at the template what the workflow is 13:34 hdl owen 13:34 hdl Is it a problem ? 13:32 owen hdl, the page is designed to have three tabs? 13:30 hdl yes. 13:30 owen Paul, I started to work on the new template you sent me, but found I had questions that I needed to ask hdl 13:27 paul hello owen. 13:26 owen Hi guys 13:00 hdl how was yours ? 13:00 paul hello kados 12:58 hdl just some resting 12:57 kados have a good weekend? 12:57 kados hi hdl 12:57 dewey hello, hdl 12:57 hdl hi 12:55 kados morning all
