22:07 pianohack chris: okay, cool, sounds good
22:07 chris definitely keep it in git, if and send me a git pull request when you want, ill put it in a new/ branch and we can get people looking/testing ti for 3.4
22:06 pianohack chris: by the way, do you have any advice on what I might do with our library's custom inventory tool that goes off in a different direction from biblibre's new one?
22:05 pianohack s/related/unrelated/
22:05 chris it is pretty neat
22:05 pianohack I love it so much
22:05 * pianohack might be abusing git rebase --interactive, on a related note
22:04 pianohack good point
21:58 chris i hope he doesnt get in trouble for it
21:58 pianohack community_involvement++
21:57 pianohack Woo cfouts!
21:07 cait gmcharlt++ because he was so right about memcache :)
20:59 chris hi cait
20:59 cait hi all
20:56 sekjal and I'm looking forward to the Hackfest
20:56 sekjal yes
20:54 chris you saw the programme eh?
20:52 chris cool :)
20:49 * sekjal is really starting to get excited about this conference!
20:46 chris http://booklovers.co.nz/
20:46 chris and
20:45 chris http://wotzon.com/eventlisting.php?event_id=5014989
20:45 chris 23th of october
20:42 sekjal working on my travel plans now
20:42 chris seems like there were a few events last year
20:42 sekjal okay, that's about what I figured.
20:41 chris yeah you might find something at a bar or something, its pretty much a non event here
20:40 sekjal it's one of my wife's and my favourite holidays, and I'm curious how easy it'll be to find something during KohaCon
20:38 chris nope, not in nz
20:38 sekjal chris: is Halloween big in Wellington?
20:32 richard hi
20:28 owen Quittin' time for me. See y'all tomorrow.
20:26 chris thd++ # good reply to david
20:26 chris but if we dont have a MARC::Record there is no point continuing with the rest of the script
20:25 chris in the staff side we could redirect to a different page
20:25 chris in fact
20:24 chris we need that in details.pl
20:24 chris }
20:24 chris exit;
20:24 chris print $query->redirect("/cgi-bin/koha/errors/404.pl");
20:24 chris # If we don't have a record, get the hell out, or we will internal server error
20:24 chris unless ($record){
20:24 chris from the opac
20:24 chris in the staff, we assume it exists and proceed according and asplode
20:23 chris we check the record exists, if it doesnt 404
20:23 chris in the opac
20:23 owen And that's with DebugLevel 0
20:23 chris yeah
20:23 owen Can't call method "field" on an undefined value at /home/oleonard/kohaclone/C4/Koha.pm line 1217.
20:23 owen I get an onscreen error message if I try detail.pl with a non-existent biblionumber
20:22 owen The DebugLevel preference affects both opac and staff client right?
20:21 chris do a 404 like the opac would make more sense to me
20:20 chris instead of the 500 ?
20:17 owen "detail.pl?biblionumber=some-nonexistent-number"
20:17 owen Why don't we have sensible error handling for detail pages of missing biblios?

20:04 chris :)
20:04 chris Come to kohacon for a sneak peek
20:02 jcamins Yet more reason to want to do my PhD in NZ.
20:02 jcamins That's my kind of weather.
20:01 chris 25 is a hot day

20:00 jcamins I think that's the coolest it's been in two weeks.

19:53 * chris_n hears his name and wakes up
19:51 chris And chris_n dealing with them
19:50 chris For 3.2.1 and 3.2.2 etc
19:49 chris Well bugs will still be going for 3.2
19:47 schuster Just a suggestion. In 4 weeks we might be singing 3.4 right?
19:47 chris Back from the bus
19:41 owen I don't know, I don't mind that it's placed in the context of now.
19:40 schuster good job... You might change this - Itâ€™s going into 3.2 as it would be just into the next release wouldn't it?
19:37 owen http://www.myacpl.org/koha/?p=555
19:36 schuster post? where?
19:36 chris bus time
19:34 chris very good post :)
19:34 owen Post updated. Any other comments/corrections welcome, here or on the post itself
19:32 schuster and if they can poor concrete on it they will.
19:32 schuster Life is a bit flat here.
19:31 pianohack schuster: Except the terrain. Coming from a town surrounded on three sides by hills, I could not tell the two sides of that highway near KohaCon '09 apart for the life of me
19:30 pianohack schuster: I will send you a couple screenshots here in the near future :)
19:30 schuster See everything is better in Texas...:O
19:29 schuster pianohack - curious about how your Inventory is different? I'm looking to "enhance" the process some in the future. and I am curious about your custom print notices and what is on them.
19:29 chris bugzilla isnt hosted at catalyst, its on a linode virtual machine in texas :)
19:28 owen Yes
19:28 chris owen you about?
19:26 pianohack Good to know
19:26 jcamins Check with your librarians first, obviously. Maybe they see things differently.
19:26 pianohack Okay
19:26 jcamins pianohack: As a librarian using Koha with local customizations, I would prefer to use the same tool everyone else does, if it can meet my requirements.
19:23 pianohack (also a custom print notices tool, but that's so library-specific it may not be worth the effort to send it in
19:23 pianohack Merging the two would be rather difficult. What do you recommend, #koha?
19:23 pianohack I created a custom inventory tool, before biblibre sent in their mods. It takes a markedly different approach to inventory to theirs
19:21 pianohack Trying to either send in my library's custom mods or revert them to the community way before a support handover
19:21 pianohack I'd like to ask some advice on custom modifications, if anyone has any :)
18:49 pianohack (also... just plain weird)
18:49 pianohack http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Irving#Recurring_themes (mildly NSFW)
18:48 jcamins Yep.
18:48 owen I guess I'm lucky I wasn't there
18:47 jcamins So I won't be reading that book any time soon.
18:47 jcamins owen: I went to a reading he gave while I was in college. To say I was a little disturbed by his worldview would be a serious understatement.
18:42 pianohack CAPSLOCK++
18:41 brendan capslock--
18:41 owen jcamins: I resisted reading that book for a long time, but when I did I liked it.
18:39 sekjal I've gotten to the point where my ears hurt, and I cringe, when I read all caps
18:38 jcamins *read
18:38 jcamins Oh, and here I was trying to figure out the literary reference. Not having ready any John Irving (and not wanting to change that), it was problematic.
18:37 owen yeah, but then I went and told someone to turn off their caps lock. There's no going back.
18:36 schuster Mean - I didn't think that was in your nature...
18:19 owen Hello. I am mean.
18:17 pianohack hai owen
18:10 pianohack CGI797: But to answer your question, YES IT WILL
18:07 owen-away CGI797: Can you please turn off your caps lock?
18:07 CGI797 CAN I USE MYSQL SDMINISTRATOR IN WINDOWS FOR BACKUP AND MYSQL ADMINSTRATOR FOR DATA RESTORING IN LINUX....WILL IT WORK
18:04 pianohack CGI797: There are ways to migrate from 2.2 to 3.0, documented on the wiki
18:02 * druthb glues pianohac*'s feet to the deck, so he can't fall away again.
18:01 CGI797 WANTED TO MIGRATE FROM KOHA 2.2.9 WINDOWS TO KOHA HARLEY...CAN I DO IT EASILY ...WORRY IS WHAT ABOUT EXISTING DATA
18:00 CGI797 HI KOHA FOLKS
17:51 pianohac1 Why in god's name would a wireless driver default to blinking an led (two, on my work laptop) for all network traffic? Does anyone know this? </rant>
17:08 brendan morning rhcl
17:06 rhcl_away Hey brendan
16:55 munin brendan: The current temperature in Northwest Goleta, Goleta, California is 21.4ï¿½C (9:51 AM PDT on July 15, 2010). Conditions: Clear. Humidity: 67%. Dew Point: 15.0ï¿½C. Pressure: 29.89 in 1012.1 hPa (Rising).
16:55 brendan @wunder 93117
16:55 brendan morning
16:30 owen And the fix broke the menu button on the circ screen
16:30 owen A patch was filed to fix a bug whree the "New patron" menu button was broken on the *patrons* home page
16:28 munin 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=5013 major, P5, ---, kyle.m.hall, NEW, "New patron" menu button broken on circulation patron select screen
16:28 owen Tracked down the cause of Bug 5013, the cause was another commit which didn't take circulation.pl into account
16:27 chris_n feeling ok today?
16:27 chris_n owen?
16:25 owen Grr...
15:48 owen Weird... the "New patron" menu on the circ patron selection screen stopped working
14:28 owen It's obvious why it was chosen as the default 3.0 manual for koha-community.org
14:27 jwagner owen, that manual was written by students at Wayne State and posted on koha.org -- looks like it was also picked up for koha-community.org
14:10 owen Oh, new 3.0 manual on koha-community.org. I hadn't seen that.
14:08 tomascohe http://stats.workbuffer.org/irclog/koha/2009-07-25
14:08 tomascohe just found that updatedatabase30.pl is for stable and updatedatabase.plis for HEAD
14:07 owen Looks custom, I see a lot of embedded CSS from the OpacUserCSS pref
14:06 sekjal wonder if that's custom, or standard for LLEK?
14:06 owen That was my example of all-out change-everything customization, and now it's out of date.
14:06 sekjal owen: oooh, that is nice
14:06 owen http://poly.kohalibrary.com/
14:05 owen Ooh, nice clean update to the Bern Dibner Library site. I wonder who did it?
14:02 owen Thanks schuster I'll update it now
14:02 schuster http://www.myacpl.org/koha/?p=160 - owen your links are no longer good on this page because liblime.com has secured some places.
14:01 owen Ah, my search didn't include .inc files. Thanks!
14:00 hdl koha-tmpl/intranet-tmpl/prog/en/includes/cat-toolbar.inc: { text: _("Attach Item"), url: "/cgi-bin/koha/cataloguing/moveitem.pl?biblionumber=" },
13:58 owen Hi hdl, I'm curious about the moveitem script (cataloguing/moveitem.pl) It doesn't seem to be linked to from anywhere?
13:58 tomascohe ?
13:58 tomascohe updatedatabase30.pl or updatedatabase.pl
13:58 tomascohe hi, what script do I need for a database upgrade?
13:58 hdl here
13:57 owen hdl here?
13:45 * druthb waddles
13:43 chris_n for your morning diversion: "You talk the talk, but do you waddle the waddle?"
13:39 schuster Can't the staff member just change the url at the beginning to a staff url making it change?
13:37 owen Lazyweb request: Can someone please create a bookmarklet that will take me from an OPAC record to the corresponding record in the staff client?
13:31 owen That was my thought as well--that the staff might be sending carts to patrons
13:31 schuster hmm owen - I would think the opac otherwise you would be expecting everyone to have staff access but if you build a cart in staff chances are you are sending it to a NON staff member.(teachers in my case)
13:30 sekjal morning, jcamins!
13:29 jcamins Good morning, #koha
13:25 owen When you send a cart from the staff client, should it link back to the staff client or the OPAC?
13:25 owen When you send a cart from the OPAC it includes a link back to the OPAC for each record.
13:07 owen I don't think it has any connection to trademarks
13:04 schuster saw the patent post wonder how that works with trademarks?
12:59 schuster I'm trying to work within confines and my limitations technologically on what I can do know how webwise(which isn't much...)
12:59 druthb yep; I'm indexing right now; your test server didn't look like it'd been messed with much in a while-- really, *really* old stuff in there. May not have all the stylesheets up and breathing by this afternoon, but will be makin' progress on that.
12:57 schuster druthb - Amy indicated that you would have a test server up and ready for me so that was what I was refering to. She indicated that I would use the same one, and I had no idea I already had one.
12:57 schuster owen - But that would be level specific not campus specific, but still a thought...
12:56 schuster Not to mention my boss wants something more flashy - 21st century...
12:56 owen schuster: You could do the same content swap in opacmainuserblock that the header does--showing and hiding content based on the css
12:56 schuster Top-use books at that particular school. Even to change the Koha logo to their school logo... Making it "seem" more one site ish.
12:55 schuster With a cookie that is set as they go to the pac it would allow me to display/search for things specifically at their location. So if we wanted to highlight a particular research topic and what is available or
12:54 schuster owen - the reason I bring this up is the ability with 3 different levels and 68 schools to limit some of the default results on the opening Mainuserblock.
12:54 druthb (Not that I mind talking to you or anything, schuster. It's just that no one has attempted to get onto my calendar about you.)
12:53 schuster Oh but they would be soooo colorful!
12:53 * druthb didn't know she'd been scheduled for one.
12:53 schuster Hey Ruth... Looking forward to our discussion today on the phone...
12:53 owen It's like making rice krispie treats with fruity pebbles. Overkill.
12:53 owen Putting frosting on a monster cookie is just too much. It's not worth it.
12:52 owen schuster: I saw in the log you were asking cookie questions, and as a matter of fact I do have some advice
12:50 * druthb waves to schuster
12:26 munin owen: |Lupin| was last seen in #koha 3 weeks, 1 day, 15 hours, 25 minutes, and 21 seconds ago: <|Lupin|> chris: ok, that's nice to read
12:26 owen @seen |Lupin|
12:08 owen Has anyone heard of this SYS-TECH before?
12:08 owen I see this in the log from [my] last night: http://facil.qc.ca/enbref/%EF%BB%BFune-vingtaine-de-c%C3%A9geps-du-qu%C3%A9bec-choisissent-koha-comme-sigb-pour-leurs-biblioth%C3%A8ques
12:08 owen Nice to read some good news
12:07 owen That news about software patents in NZ was the first thing I read this morning.
