Time Nick Message
11:28 |Lupin| back after lunch
10:58 ebegin bb soon
10:54 kf good morning ebegin
10:43 ebegin good morning #koha
10:02 |Lupin| hmm, was a permission problem... the Perl message as not very helpful
09:55 |Lupin| and C4/Context.pm is in the first directory in @INC !
09:55 |Lupin| Can't locate C4/Context.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /home/seb/src/koha ...
09:55 |Lupin| today something weird happens with koha.
09:54 |Lupin| hello, there !
09:31 munin chris: ecorrado was last seen in #koha 3 weeks, 6 days, 12 hours, 49 minutes, and 52 seconds ago: <ecorrado> taht solitare image is funny
09:31 chris @seen ecorrado
07:52 veki chris: maybe this link i s useful http://www.eln.bc.ca/view.php?id=1085
07:36 veki chris: indeed, LOL
07:34 chris im fairly sure they make these almost incomprehensible on purpose
07:33 chris wow that certainly looks like an ISO standard alright
07:19 veki hdl_laptop: maybe you can look at this too: http://www.nla.gov.au/librariesaustralia/isoill.html
07:18 veki hdl_laptop: please look this http://www.collectionscanada.gc.ca/iso/ill/stanprf.htm
07:18 veki hdl_laptop: ok, I gues that Marc21 compliance can do that work.
07:17 hdl_laptop But do you have some docs to hint to what kind of support you are asking ?
07:17 hdl_laptop veki: I donot think so.
07:15 veki does KOHA suport ISO ILL standard(s)?
06:00 kf good morning :)
04:53 Amit hi hdl
04:16 Amit hi Jo
04:15 Jo morning Amit
03:24 Amit good morning #koha
03:24 Amit hi chris,
03:23 Jo cool
02:57 richard hi jo. just saw your email
02:56 Jo Katipo Richard :)
02:56 Jo Richard: are you about?
23:37 pianohacker Good night, all
23:26 |Lupin| thanks , have a nice day chris :)
23:26 chris sleep well
23:26 pianohacker bye
23:25 |Lupin| okay, time to go sleeping. So long!
23:23 |Lupin| I hope I can have the koha set up soon so I'll have something to show you
23:23 |Lupin| thanks to all of you :)
23:23 |Lupin| :)
23:22 Jo it is actually really helpful to participate in this 'thinking it through' process... h
23:22 Jo (I think I drove people mad in the end... Nicole stopped just short of slapping me with a: "stop overthinking it" message !
23:21 Jo absolutely
23:20 pianohacker We're happy to help
23:20 pianohacker |Lupin|: That being quite the understatement :)
23:18 |Lupin| anyway. I don't want you guys to think I'm frustrated or anything like that, it's not true at all. I'm just strongly thinking and asking myself questions, it is certainly not obvious on IRC to distinguish frustration from questionning.
23:17 |Lupin| Jo: yes, but you have to enter both, whereas I was looking for a way to do it such that when a record is identified by an item type, you don't have to give the ccode explicitly
23:16 Jo 1 ccode being a reunion of smaller sets (identified by itemtypes)
23:15 Jo and what you just said is exactly how I have arranged my collection
23:15 Jo I have to head off to other work, I'll think some more about this.
23:14 |Lupin| e.g. by saying that a set of books shold be defined as the reunion of smaller sets
23:14 |Lupin| chris: I just thought one may be able to minimize
23:13 |Lupin| chris: I realize it.
23:13 chris there is not going to be any way to automagically pick them im afraid
23:13 pianohacker The same applies to virtual shelves
23:13 chris it relies on someone cataloguing things correctly
23:13 pianohacker |Lupin|: Maybe, though it's currently a bit inconvenient to set tags as part of cataloging
23:12 chris tags, virtual shelves, ccodes, itemtypes
23:12 chris whatever you choose
23:12 |Lupin| would tags help ?
23:09 Jo its just that as librarians we are used to being told what we can have, not being able to say what we want.
23:09 |Lupin| Jo: just trying to remain agnostic regarding what tool would be best...
23:09 Jo Koha is amazingly versatile
23:09 |Lupin| Jo: ok :)
23:08 |Lupin| the advantage I can see is that it offers good research capabilities, which a reader may want
23:08 Jo don't be disheartend Lupin :)
23:08 |Lupin| I'm really wondering whether koha is the right tool to do this specific thing
23:07 Jo so bulk update at data conversion time, then item by item, while cataloguing new stuff
23:07 Jo and if you choose ccode then for advanced search to work every item in the collection should be identified by a ccode of some sort
23:07 |Lupin| k
23:06 chris the rest of the time, it relies on the cataloguer assigning the right code
23:06 Jo the problem is that you have to decide wherether advanced sedarch is by itemtype or ccode.
23:06 |Lupin| would these help ?
23:06 |Lupin| what about virtual shelves ?
23:06 |Lupin| not sure either
23:06 chris but certainly when migrating you would do that
23:06 Jo yep.
23:06 chris im not sure you would want to do that as a continual thing
23:06 chris that was a part of a migration
23:05 |Lupin| Jo: but I'd say I'd do that as a fall back, because this does not look very clean to me
23:05 Jo thats how Chris has assigned ccodes to itemtypes
23:05 |Lupin| Jo: sure, this could probabl be done
23:04 Jo and ditto for largeprint item types etc.
23:04 Jo couldn't you do a bulk update for some item types: so run a script which did something like "where itemtypes = audio book eneter<printdisabled> into the ccode field
23:04 |Lupin| pianohacker: yes tha was more or less what I had in mind
23:03 |Lupin| chris: ok. but I meant you would tell him which item types are part of the print disabled collection, sya, and then you just have to give the right item type to the book and koha knows that the collection is the reunion of all the item types... like in a hierarchy...
23:02 chris ahh i was joking ,that if the computer could guess correctly what items were accessible, it would be intelligent :)
23:01 pianohacker For instance: http://jcfld.us.to/cgi-bin/koha/opac-search.pl?q=itype%3ABOOK+OR+itype%3ADVD
23:01 |Lupin| what I didn't understand was why you were saying that
23:01 pianohacker |Lupin|: You can search for multiple item types at once; all a "Print Disabled" collection code would do would be to make it easier to search
23:01 |Lupin| I mean I understood the idea
23:01 |Lupin| yep
23:00 chris or 2001? .. its a common science fiction theme :)
23:00 |Lupin| doesn't matter :)
23:00 |Lupin| but never seen
23:00 |Lupin| yes
23:00 chris where machines began thinking, and realised they didnt need humans anymore
22:59 chris you have heard of the movie 'Terminator' |Lupin| ?
22:59 pianohacker We'd have to send someone back in time to talk to Rosalie Blake, like in Terminator 2
22:58 |Lupin| hmm ?
22:58 chris or it would send terminators after us
22:58 chris we would have to shut it down
22:58 chris if it could reason like that
22:58 |Lupin| too bad
22:58 |Lupin| ah
22:57 pianohacker Koha would not be able to guess that on its own, no
22:56 |Lupin| I mean, I'm looking for a way to have simple rles saying hat braile is ok for print disabled...
22:56 |Lupin| woudl koha guess on its own that an item that has the item type talking book belongs to the print disables ccode ?
22:55 |Lupin| with such a set-up
22:55 |Lupin| but
22:55 |Lupin| right
22:54 pianohacker I think that's what chris was thinking of, as well
22:54 pianohacker My first guess would be to create item types for each form you have ("Talking Book", "Audio Book", "Book"), and have a "Print Disabled" collection code
22:52 |Lupin| good point :)
22:52 pianohacker yes
22:52 |Lupin| does this make sens ?
22:50 |Lupin| and the system will list them, say what is available and where, and in which form.
22:50 |Lupin| find all the books that are accessible for me
22:50 |Lupin| you should be able to say
22:50 |Lupin| so suppose you are a blind user
22:49 |Lupin| and also I want to keep track of whether a book ias available in an accessible form, no matter which form it is.
22:49 |Lupin| I want to keep track of the form
22:49 |Lupin| I want to ctalogue books that are available for print disabled nder different forms
22:48 |Lupin| I think it's very simple
22:48 Jo yep
22:48 |Lupin| but this doesn't matter, the support of the community is precious and helpful
22:48 Jo so articulate clearly what you want to achieve at the end for your users.
22:48 |Lupin| which may be even difeent
22:48 |Lupin| and I guess I'll have to build mine
22:48 |Lupin| sure
22:47 Jo I have only 1 solution, others have equally valid and helpful solutions.
22:47 Jo I am very happy to help you here, and I found loads of support when I was struggling with this issue.
22:47 |Lupin| :)
22:47 Jo koha's flexibility is fantastic, but overwhelming too.
22:47 |Lupin| Right.
22:46 Jo and for me, 1 way stood out as being superior.
22:46 Jo then, once you know where you are heading, you can identity various ways of achieving that result.
22:46 Jo Lupion: I found it easier once I made a clear statement about what I wanted to achieve.i think y
22:45 Jo thats right.
22:45 pianohacker |Lupin|: Correct
22:45 |Lupin| hmm an item can have one ccode and an item type, but it can't have several item types or several ccodes... right ?
22:45 Jo there are 3 of them, and I tried an arrangement empahsiszing iteem types, then truied emphasizing ccodes.
22:45 Jo Lupin, I totally sympathize. As i said, I spent weeks struggling with this and that is why I wrote the blog posts.
22:44 |Lupin| Jo: would you say that it's by plaing with the things that you became (more) familiar ?
22:44 Jo now back to your print disabled example, you could assign a ccode to every item you want part of a specific collction, regardless of what item type they are.
22:42 Jo and ditto for ccode DVD, which clusters togteher 6 different DVD item types, being various combinations of free and rental, then Junior. young adult and Adult.
22:41 Jo which is used to cluster together a bunch of item types: BNM (Maori) BNH (local History) and BN (general adult nonfiction)
22:40 Jo Adult nonfiction is a ccode,
22:40 |Lupin| Jo: So the things like Adult Nonfiction on the site you have given are what ? item types or ccodes ?
22:38 Jo I used itemtypes as specific and ccode to generalize, and default circulation rules (only stating the exceptions to the rule not every rule)
22:38 |Lupin| oh I didn't realize there were two
22:37 Jo tghe second post is much shorter - summary
22:37 |Lupin| Jo: I already read your blog post, thanks. As I said will have to come back to it cause I'm not librarian and it's tough
22:36 |Lupin| this difference vanishes ?
22:36 |Lupin| where there would be no loan of books
22:36 pianohacker Jo seems to have taken the opposite approach with good results, for example
22:35 |Lupin| and in the case we were discussing before
22:35 pianohacker In general, another difference is that itemtypes are more general and ccodes are more specific, but you by no means are required to do so
22:35 |Lupin| ok
22:35 Jo yep.
22:35 pianohacker *ccode
22:35 pianohacker |Lupin|: The main practical difference is that you can set circulation rules by itemtype, but not by circulation code
22:34 Jo these are used to break 73 item types into searchable mnanageable chunks
22:34 pianohacker |Lupin|: They are both, unfortunately, mutually exclusive (on the same item, at least)
22:34 Jo http://opac.koha.catalystdemo.net.nz/cgi-bin/koha/opac-search.pl shows our 12 ccodes
22:34 |Lupin| is that true ?
22:34 |Lupin| whereas ccodes are not
22:34 |Lupin| it seems to me that item types are mutually exclusive
22:33 |Lupin| I see a difference between item types and ccodes, but I'm not sure
22:33 Jo this is where I ended up with tem types and ccodes
22:33 pianohacker confirmed, from the default framework for UNIMARC
22:33 Jo http://library-matters.blogspot.com/2009/03/dont-be-afraid-of-using-lots-of-item.html
22:32 |Lupin| chris: I think so...
22:32 chris if thats where the rest of the item stuff is, then yep
22:32 |Lupin| chris: yep, I assume it's 995 in Unimarc
22:32 chris im not sure where it stores them for UNIMARC
22:32 chris (thats for marc21)
22:31 pianohacker So they're _technically_ marc fields, yes, but it's an artifact of the implementation
22:31 pianohacker |Lupin|: Koha stores items as both holdings tags (952 tags) and as rows in the items SQL table
22:31 |Lupin| hi Jo :)
22:31 Jo (I spent 3 weeks agonizing over CCodes and item types)
22:30 |Lupin| So are ccodes stored as marc fields, or not ?
22:29 pianohacker ccodes are item level only
22:29 |Lupin| both item types and CCodes can be defined at both levels ?
22:28 chris i prefer at itemlevel though
22:28 Jo I'm back
22:28 |Lupin| ok
22:28 chris and no, you can define it at either level
22:28 chris Koha specific |Lupin|
22:28 |Lupin| is it correct that item types are something defined at the item level and never at the bib level ?
22:27 |Lupin| pianohacker: well... I discovered collection codes a few minutes ago so I feel a bit dull...
22:26 |Lupin| Are the concepts of item types and CCodes koha-specific, or rather common and well understood in library science ?
22:26 pianohacker Any particular points we can (attempt to) clear up?
22:26 chris if Jo is around later, she might be able to help
22:26 |Lupin| Will have to come back to it, because for a newbie like me this is a bit fst...
22:25 |Lupin| okay, finished reading
22:19 |Lupin| :)
22:18 chris thank jo, she wrote it :)
22:18 |Lupin| chris: thanks a lot !
22:18 chris that post might help, at least i hope it does
22:18 |Lupin| how do you know whether it's an item type or a collection code that is more appropriate to represent something ?
22:18 chris http://library-matters.blogspot.com/2009/03/summary-of-discussion-about-item-types.html
22:17 |Lupin| hmm
22:17 chris ahh of course
22:17 pianohacker They're really just refinements of item types; for instance, you can have a DVD itemtype and Non-fiction DVD, Children's DVD and Fiction DVD collections
22:17 |Lupin| chris: to your list one could add digital files, braille...
22:16 |Lupin| chris: thanks
22:16 chris let me find Jo's post on it
22:16 chris yes
22:16 |Lupin| actually it's more than that ?
22:16 chris and that could contain 'Talking Books','Audio CD' .. not sure what else
22:16 |Lupin| I thought collections where just published series of books, i.e. a publisher publishes a collection
22:15 chris 'Print Disabled'
22:15 chris that means you could have
22:15 |Lupin| ahah
22:15 chris if you switch on that option in the system preferences
22:15 chris you can limit by collection code
22:15 chris *nod*
22:14 |Lupin| the requirement is that one is able to do a search limited to those books that are accessible
22:14 chris which can have a few itemtypes
22:14 chris maybe one collection code
22:14 |Lupin| would that be one single item type ?
22:14 |Lupin| how wold one represent the itms accessible to print disabled ?
22:13 |Lupin| also
22:13 |Lupin| chris: okay, that was what I was thinking
22:13 chris |Lupin|: it could be all in the same koha
22:13 pianohacker Oh, nevermind. Ignore the idiot
22:12 chris pianohacker: im not sure even masterkey can search paper :-)
22:12 pianohacker Hmm. It looks like pazpar2 is open source but masterkey is not
22:12 |Lupin| but the same koha could, for instance, serve also to keep track of the books of one local library with printed books ? or one should necessarily have two distinct kohas ?
22:11 |Lupin| sure
22:11 chris it will involve someone's time keeping it up to date though
22:11 |Lupin| chris: I see
22:10 chris then koha might well be a good solution
22:10 chris ie they are on paper
22:10 chris but, if there is no way to search the catalogues
22:10 chris no i dont think so
22:09 |Lupin| chris: and my feeling is that, accoding to you, installing a Koha is not the most efficient way to reach the goal, right ?
22:09 chris without the print-disabled bit
22:09 |Lupin| chris: ok.
22:08 chris yep, thats pretty much what worldcat is trying to do
22:08 |Lupin| pianohacker: ah I didn't know this
22:07 |Lupin| chris: in fact what I want is just to provide people a place where they can look for a book on a given field. And as an additional service for those who are print-disabled, I'd like to provide, for each book, a list of libraries where they can find a version of that book they can read
22:07 pianohacker Perhaps something along the lines of Masterkey?
22:06 chris a catalogue of catalogues :)
22:06 chris i was more thinking of worldcat being an example of what you are trying to do
22:06 chris biblios.net otoh do
22:06 chris nope
22:06 |Lupin| chris: but they don't have a Z39.50 server, do they ?
22:05 chris http://www.worldcat.org/advancedsearch
22:05 |Lupin| do they catalogue all the books on the topic, or only those for which they own at least one item ?
22:05 chris |Lupin|: just that you might be able to use it as a source for getting a lot of bibliographical data
22:05 |Lupin| :)
22:04 chris when the wellington theosophical society got Koha, i spend more time teaching the people there how to move a mouse, than how to use koha
22:04 |Lupin| chris: why are you mentionnng it right now ?
22:04 |Lupin| chris: just know the name
22:04 chris *nod*
22:03 |Lupin| these libraries are generally driven by old persons who are very good willing, but not much ready to adapt themselves
22:03 chris http://www.worldcat.org/
22:03 chris you have seen worldcat eh |Lupin| ?
22:03 |Lupin| yes
22:03 chris heh, thats crazy
22:02 |Lupin| chris: some libraries for the blinds here in France are recording on cassettes and printing their catalogue on paper, so that the catalogue is not even accessible to those who are supposed to read the books
22:02 chris if you cant get realtime data out, that might be the best you can do
22:02 chris yours might be the best of the rest then
22:02 |Lupin| chris: definitely not, and they probably never will
22:02 chris *nod*
22:01 |Lupin| Also, one of the important thing is to catalogue any material accessible to print-disabled persons, no matter whehther it is available somewhere for loan, for buying...
22:00 chris do they all have z3950 servers?
22:00 |Lupin| chris: hmm... the roblem is that not all of them have APIs.
22:00 chris and then returns you the results, which you then present in a way you like
21:59 chris so when you do a search, it searches 10 library catalogues
21:59 chris and then reformat the results
21:59 chris |Lupin|: i think it would be nicer to have targets that you search
21:59 |Lupin| chris: yeah, I kind of realised that, so I was wondering how to cope with that, perhaps just giving one URL for each holding, or something like that ? Or is the approach completely wrong ?
21:58 chris |Lupin|: the problem i can see with your approach is keeping it up to date
21:58 imp chris: thx for the pointer :)
21:58 chris |Lupin|: i know you are not dumb :)
21:58 chris then koha can search itself, and kete
21:57 chris but if you use something like kete
21:57 chris imp: nope koha is a LMS, not a digital library system
21:57 |Lupin| chris: as I already said, I _completely_ new to the field (new reads dumb)
21:57 imp is it possible to search for stuff inside of some digital stuff stored in koha, like pdfs?
21:57 chris until one of the libraries changes something
21:57 |Lupin| oh oh
21:56 chris accurate for about 20 seconds
21:56 |Lupin| or at least an accurate one ?
21:56 |Lupin| Setting up a koha, declare all the libraries, catalogue the bibliographic records and declare all the holdings, would that be the right approach ?
21:55 |Lupin| Moreover, I'd like to distinguish those items that are accessible to print disabled persons, either because they are available as files, or because they are in braille, audiobooks, etc.
21:54 |Lupin| so I'd like to kep track of all the books on philosoophy, say, that are present in a certain number of libraries
21:54 |Lupin| let's say it's philosophy
21:53 |Lupin| it's to create a specialized cataloge on one theme
21:53 |Lupin| just a first thought
21:53 |Lupin| idea is not completely clear yet
21:53 |Lupin| and wold like to know whether koha would be suitable for that.
21:52 |Lupin| I'm thinking about one possible use of koha
21:52 pianohacker What's up?
21:52 |Lupin| pianohacker: it's loose enough
21:52 pianohacker How loose is your "librarians" requirement?
21:51 |Lupin| some librarians around, please ?
21:49 wizzyrea last update, rather
21:49 wizzyrea oh, after our last install items apparently were'nt getting tagged with their current location
21:46 pianohacker wizzyrea: What was your curious problem?
21:46 |Lupin| hello !
21:24 Jo :) its my silly sticky keyboard
21:23 gmcharlt Jo: at least that's a new mispelling ;)
21:23 Jo Galen - sorry
21:23 Jo Hi Gelen
21:15 gmcharlt hi Jo
21:14 chris back
21:07 Jo morning all
20:55 wizzyrea ^.^ I try to be entertaining
20:50 pianohacker You can be curiously problematic sometimes
20:49 wizzyrea I have kind of a curious problem
20:49 richard hi hdl_laptop
20:48 hdl_laptop hi richard
20:45 richard hi
19:42 chris bb later
18:54 gmcharlt cool
18:54 owen Okay, and I'll contact rach before I do anything with the logo
18:53 gmcharlt to suggest a general name
18:53 gmcharlt misc/interface_customization
18:53 gmcharlt yes
18:52 owen Create a new directory there for images?
18:51 gmcharlt wouldn't hurt to put them in the OPAC imagedir, but since the webserver won't actually be serving them, some place in misc might be better
18:51 owen I'm not sure about that one.
18:50 gmcharlt will we need signoff by rach to include the source for the Koha logo?
18:50 owen Where do you think I should put them? Alongside other OPAC images?
18:50 gmcharlt owen: good idea
18:49 owen gmcharlt: I'd like to add to git the source files for a couple of images: the Koha logo and the backgrond image used by the cart and lists buttons
18:45 gmcharlt ebegin: feel free to edit page to expand the acronyms
18:44 ebegin ok, thanks :)
18:44 gmcharlt LMS = "library management system" = ILS
18:43 ebegin gmcharlt, about the welcome message, what does LMS stand for?
18:36 munin gmcharlt: The operation succeeded. Quote #12 added.
18:36 gmcharlt @quote add <owen> Every time you check in a book a little video loads and Nancy Pearl recites her capsule review of it.
18:35 owen Every time you check in a book a little video loads and Nancy Pearl recites her capsule review of it.
18:34 gmcharlt owen: before I support you on your HTML5 RFC, I have to ask you what video codec the Koha project should support ;)
18:33 owen It's the logical-extension of the tables-are-bad debate!
18:33 owen I feel that in order to be usable by the widest variety of browsers Koha should be designed to use HTML 2.
18:32 gmcharlt owen: go for lost causes - insist on XHTML2 compliance!
17:30 pianohacker Hi
17:30 chris hi all
17:14 hdl_laptop hi gmcharlt
17:13 pianohacker Hello
17:13 gmcharlt hi folks
16:48 |Lupin| till soon, everybody
16:46 |Lupin| hi gmcharlt !
16:24 Sharon Finally out of all my meetings, so I can log into all my chatrooms
16:24 Sharon Hiya Owen
16:24 owen Hi Sharon
16:24 atz if the object decides in one version to store data at $self->{modify} in one version, and someplace else in another, it's the coder's fault for relying on the particularity of the data location and not the method api
16:24 owen Thanks atz. I was trying fixes without really know exactly what I was doing. I'm still not sure whether the first version worked at one time.
16:23 atz owen: it's an object... you have to use the methods

15:52 owen Perhaps it didn't :)
15:51 pianohacker owen: To be honest, I have no idea how $query->{'modify'} worked in the first place
15:50 owen Can anyone explain to me why the syntax "$query->{'modify'}" would fail to work when "$query->param('modify')" would?
15:39 |Lupin| ebegin++
15:38 ebegin It's ok to use bitfield... but the user shouldn't have to care about it... The UI should be checkboxes.
15:37 pianohacker k, cool
15:37 kf pianohacker: had no time for bug report about professional to organisation linking today :( will try again tomorrow
15:36 pianohacker One day, I hope to send a database upgrade and some code to make sense of that field
15:35 pianohacker ebegin: Hey, I'm all for a consistency patch right there
15:35 ebegin pianohacker, I agree... that why we should'nt test them with < or >
15:34 pianohacker Not only are the docs confusing, but actually inconsistent with the code
15:34 pianohacker It resembles a bitmask, but only partially
15:34 pianohacker ebegin: The 'hidden' field is not consistent in any shape or form
15:31 ebegin yep
15:30 pianohacker ebegin: Is it the 'hidden' field?
15:30 ebegin ok.. trying to figure out the reason of a condition in cataloguing/addbiblio.pl (search for ">= 4")
15:29 hdl_laptop working for France telecom on security issues
15:28 ebegin hdl_laptop, used to? Not working anymore?
15:28 hdl_laptop used to work in France with us
15:28 hdl_laptop Antoine Franault
15:27 ebegin who is (was) toins?
15:26 |Lupin| owen: never tried this feature
15:24 owen Anyone else finding that opac-userupdate.pl isn't sending email to the administrator?
15:20 |Lupin| ebegin: ok
15:19 pianohacker Hey, eric
15:19 ebegin hi pianohacker
15:18 pianohacker Good morning
15:18 ebegin 1 = ! OPAC Intranet Editor Collaps
15:17 ebegin 4 = ! OPAC Intranet Editor !Collapse
15:17 ebegin 1 won't show it in the OPAC, but in the intranet. The Collapse is used to expand the subfield, but since 009 doesn't have subfield, the collapse is irrelevant
15:15 |Lupin| ebegin: so 1 won't have the effect of showing it everywhere, but you are suggesting this value because it will make the situation mbetter than it is now,correct ?
15:14 |Lupin| s/intranet/opac/
15:14 ebegin yes, don't show
15:14 |Lupin| ebegin: !Intranet means it won't work in the Intranet
15:14 ebegin opposite, sorry :)
15:13 ebegin Synonyme of expanded
15:13 ebegin |Lupin|, déplier
15:11 ebegin there is an explicit condition on hidden >= 4 in the code... cataloguing/addbiblio.pl
15:11 |Lupin| btw what does Collapse mean ?
15:10 ebegin |Lupin|, set it to 1 (!OPAC, Intranet, Editor, Collapse)
15:10 |Lupin| ebegin: actually, what's your suggestion ?
15:10 |Lupin| I don't know kf
15:09 ebegin I repeat... the problem is with field < 10 AND hidden = 4 ( or any value >=4 )
15:07 kf perhaps my database entries could give you a hint?
15:06 |Lupin| Maybe time to send an e-mail to the list...
15:06 |Lupin| kf: okay. Thanks a lot for having tried so hard, thanks to ebegin, too.
15:06 kf ok, now im out of ideas :(
15:04 kf hm with 0 its only displaed in MARC View too... perhaps a bug
15:02 kf after setting tab to -1 = ignore I can see 019 in MARC view, but not in Epanded MARC View
15:01 |Lupin| no change in the opac
14:59 |Lupin| let me see what happens in the opac for instance
14:59 kf did setting tab to 0 change anything?
14:59 kf I think only the editor, not sure about it
14:59 |Lupin| (I didn't have the opportunity to check)
14:58 |Lupin| kf: but if the field affects only the editor, it wo't affect the MARC view in opac and staff client, right ?
14:58 kf for example a framework for ill records with only a few fields on one page
14:58 kf so that all fields are on one page, if you like that better
14:58 kf you can change it when adding your own framework
14:57 |Lupin| kf: ahah.
14:57 |Lupin| kf: in other frameworks it works differently ?
14:57 kf but there are some exceptions as 952 fields are managed in items
14:57 kf in the default framework yes
14:57 |Lupin| ebegin: ok
14:56 |Lupin| kf: right, I can't use the editor inmy current configuration
14:55 ebegin |Lupin|, i'm pretty sure that it is a problem with the < 010 field. I set the hidden to 0, and it shows in the Editor. hidden = 4 doesn't show.. It's a bug ...
14:55 |Lupin| so every field numbered xyz is show in tab x, unless the tab field says something diffferent. Is that correct ?
14:55 kf I think you cant work with the editor, as its using javascript?
14:55 kf there is also an items tab, for fields that belong to items and one value for hidden
14:55 |Lupin| kf: ah I see
14:54 kf normally you choose tab nine for 9xx fields, tab 8 for 8xx fields and so on
14:54 kf with managed in tag you can choose in which tag or page you want it to display
14:53 kf the editor is organised in tabs
14:53 |Lupin| kf: I'm a newbie so I know nothing about ILMSs
14:52 |Lupin| kf: I don't understand the meaning, though. Can you please explin ?
14:52 |Lupin| kf: sure, I'll change it
14:50 kf its called managed in tab in staff client, I think -1 is either hidden or items
14:49 kf set it to 0
14:49 kf ok :)
14:49 |Lupin| kf: -1
14:47 |Lupin| kf: let me see
14:47 kf +e
14:47 |Lupin| ok ok
14:47 kf marc_subfield_structur.tab
14:47 |Lupin| kf: do you know where this is stored in the db ?
14:46 kf which value do you have in tab column?
14:46 |Lupin| kf: ah it was not there, ok
14:46 kf I think it isnt, but it wasnt there :)
14:46 |Lupin| kf: not sure whether 019 is meaningful
14:46 kf 21
14:46 kf ok, im using MARC"!
14:45 |Lupin| kf: UNIMARC
14:44 kf lupin, are u using MARC21 or UNIMARC?
14:44 kf ok, I added 019 without subfields successfully in 3.2 -installation
14:43 |Lupin| and in the staff client I don't see anything either
14:42 kf i try adding a new 0xx-field now
14:41 |Lupin| The MARC view starts with 010 ISBN
14:40 |Lupin| actually still don't see anything in the opac
14:40 |Lupin| hmm
14:39 kf ok, I started reading when it was about the OPAC description and how to show it in OPAC :)
14:38 ebegin s/do/does/
14:38 ebegin But |Lupin| do not see it in the Intranet ;)
14:38 kf yes, but not in OPAC
14:37 kf http://wiki.koha.org/doku.php?id=marc_subfields_structure.tmpl&s[]=marc&s[]=tag&s[]=structure&s[]=administration
14:37 ebegin kf 4 should display in on the Intranet et Editor...
14:37 kf I think it muste be on the wiki too
14:37 kf can you access the help file in staff client from edit subfields page with f1? there is a liste of the values
14:36 |Lupin| I think I mis read the text ebegin pasted on the web for me
14:35 |Lupin| kf: ok !
14:35 kf try -1: OPAC Intranet Editor Collapsed
14:35 |Lupin| I assume this is the right thing ?
14:35 |Lupin| update marc_subfield_structure set hidden=4 where tagfield='009' and frameworkcode='';
14:35 kf ok, 4 was the wrong choice :) !OPAC Intranet Editor !Collapsed
14:35 |Lupin| btw, the command used to update the table was:
14:34 |Lupin| kf: thanks !
14:34 |Lupin| kf: and yes it's a coded field without subfield, but I don't know whether this means there is somethingmore to do
14:33 kf mom I will look it up
14:33 |Lupin| kf: we set it to four
14:33 kf and check if your hidden value allows display in OPAC
14:32 kf perhaps its a problem with coded fields without subfields?
14:32 kf I added 689 and some subfields to the MARC-Framework, its shown in MARC-View and Expanded MARC-View, Expanded MARC-View uses the description
14:31 kf mom testing :)
14:29 |Lupin| kf: that's what I thought, too, but even in thae marc view the field does not appear at all
14:27 kf I think this description is used in the MARC-View
14:25 |Lupin| I thought both, e.g. because each field has two descriptions, one for OPAC and one for staff client...
14:24 |Lupin| is the default framework used only in the staff client, or also in the opac, actually ?
14:19 |Lupin| ebegin: but the text I defined for the 09 field appears in te database
14:19 |Lupin| ahah
14:18 ebegin |Lupin|, false alarm... it doesn't show...
14:17 ebegin grr... |Lupin|, it shows in the editor... but not at the right place... it's located before 001, not after 008...
13:57 |Lupin| ebegin: ah, you tried, thanks a lot !!
13:55 ebegin ok... you are not getting crazy |Lupin|, I don't see it either :)
13:54 |Lupin| ebegin: I think the edit feature requires javascript so I can't test that.
13:53 |Lupin| ebegin: 4
13:51 ebegin Which hidden value did you set?
13:50 ebegin Do you see it when you try to edit your record?
13:45 |Lupin| I can't see the 009 field in the staff client
13:45 |Lupin| okay, I have modified the database and it does stillnot work, I think
13:32 |Lupin| ebegin: ok, thanks !!
13:31 ebegin marc_subfield_structure » hidden
13:30 |Lupin| ebegin (or someone else): any hint which column in which ta ble to modify ?
13:29 |Lupin| ebegin: it's because these bttons are not simple buttons, they have onsubmit attributes that make they require js
13:28 |Lupin| ebegin: no no it's not the first time that happens
13:27 ebegin that is strange.
13:25 |Lupin| ebegin: actually the submit button does not work :/
13:25 |Lupin| ebegin: hanks
13:25 ebegin In the top right corner of your page, there is a ?, this is a contextual help
13:24 ebegin http://pastebin.ca/1485657
13:23 |Lupin| "(voir aide en ligne)" is not a link
13:23 |Lupin| ebegin: actually lynx does not show a link
13:23 ebegin in the help file linked to the page
13:23 |Lupin| is the semantics fo the value documented somewhere ?
13:22 ebegin Your option is to change it directly in the database then
13:22 |Lupin| ebegin: so you said 4 ?
13:22 |Lupin| ah and I can modify the 0
13:22 |Lupin| ebegin: I can see the "hidden (0)" thing
13:22 ebegin s/uses/use/
13:21 ebegin it does uses javascript...
13:20 |Lupin| cause I'm using lynx...
13:20 |Lupin| depends if it uses javascript or not
13:20 |Lupin| I'm not sure I can do that
13:20 |Lupin| hmm
13:17 ebegin Set the hidden (caché) field to something like 4 (show Expanded in Intranet and Editor, don't show in OPAC)
13:16 |Lupin| :)
13:15 ebegin haha... |Lupin| forget munin comment :)
13:15 munin |Lupin|: downloading the Perl source
13:15 |Lupin| @ Ancien 001 sous-champ ignoré Supprimer
13:14 |Lupin| actually I kcan see the @ hdl_laptop was mentionning
13:14 ebegin Click on the Display more constraints link (the first one)
13:14 ebegin Make sure you have a value in the Managed in Tab (usually 0)
13:13 ebegin Then click the Edit Subfields button
13:12 ebegin yes, but only for editing purpose. Click on it
13:12 |Lupin| hdl_laptop ebegin: still, there is the subfields link for this field
13:11 |Lupin| but I don't see the "@" sign you were mentionning hdl_laptop
13:11 |Lupin| hmm the field appears in the frawework
13:11 |Lupin| now it's there
13:11 |Lupin| oh
13:06 hdl_laptop admin/frameworks/
13:04 |Lupin| hdl_laptop: either in terms of web interfrace, or perhaps simpler, in terms of tables in the db
13:04 |Lupin| hdl_laptop: where should I look to see that ?
13:03 hdl_laptop do you have 009 and subfield "@" (stands for no_subfields) in your "grille de catalogage" ?
13:02 |Lupin| hdl_laptop: <controlfield tag="009">58</controlfield>
13:02 |Lupin| hdl_laptop: sorry it tookme so long
12:55 ebegin |Lupin| hdl_laptop but the framework still have a Subfields link beside 009
12:55 hdl_laptop ebegin: same for USMARC 009 has no subfields
12:54 |Lupin| cause 009 does not hae subfields in Unimarc
12:54 ebegin yes
12:54 |Lupin| ebegin: you mean for each field ?
12:53 ebegin |Lupin|, when you edit your framework, you should have a Subfields link. Unless this is different in Unimarc.
12:47 |Lupin| ebegin: there is no subfield for the 009 field I 'm trying to display
12:46 ebegin |Lupin|, whn you edit the subfield, make sure you set the hidden (caché) value located in the « display more constraints » section
12:45 |Lupin| hdl_laptop: no, not yet. Let me see.
12:42 hdl_laptop have you checked 009 field was in database biblioitems.marcxml ?
12:39 |Lupin| hdl_laptop: is there something else to change, pls ?
12:39 |Lupin| hdl_laptop: I just modified the default framework and added some text to dsplay besides to field 009, same text for OPAC and staff client, but the field is not displayed...
12:38 |Lupin| owen: ok
12:35 |Lupin| owen: I DID not forget the "skip to content" feature". Just a bit busy at the moment.
12:35 owen Hi
12:35 |Lupin| hi owen
12:26 |Lupin| hdl_laptop: ok, thanks. Will see how to add 009
12:26 hdl_laptop yes
12:26 |Lupin| hdl_laptop: framework is "grille de catalogage" in french ?
12:19 hdl_laptop all depends on your framework configuration.
12:15 |Lupin| hdl_laptop: when these fiels are present in a record, where do they show up in Koha ?
12:15 |Lupin| hdl_laptop: np, thanks!
12:14 hdl_laptop sorry
12:14 |Lupin| hdl_laptop: yeah, that's more o less what I discovered in the documentation of themodule. A wéas not aware these fields were special.
12:14 hdl_laptop Note No indicator, no subfield
12:14 hdl_laptop and to add field, MARC::Field->new($tag, $data)
12:14 |Lupin| could any body please give me a hint about how to display additional MARC fields ?
12:13 hdl_laptop |Lupin|: 009 and all fields under 010 are accessed with $field->data
12:13 |Lupin| hi chris
12:10 chris and with those 2 pieces of snarkiness, i bid you all goodnight :)
12:09 chris i just basically said, if you dont know what cron is, you shouldnt really be looking after a linux box
12:09 collum Just reading email from the listsrev. Should someone post that if help is asked from a specific company, that it's customary to pay them? :)
12:09 chris marc is retarded
12:08 |Lupin| ah, fields with tags <010 ddo not have indicaors...
12:00 |Lupin| The field appears in the MARC record, but yaz-marcdump does not provide any content for it...
