21:51 cfouts     wizzyrea: we've got a patch in the pipeline for that
21:34 wizzyrea   i'm going to call my selfcheck library and ask.
21:33 wizzyrea   afaik self checks won't circ to a debarred patron
21:33 wizzyrea   because what sense would it make for a SIP enabled self check to circ items to a debarred patron? so it must know about the status
21:32 wizzyrea   and I think this *must* be a setting in their system
21:32 wizzyrea   well, I had a question about "our PC reservation system doesn't block debarred patrons automatically"
21:32 brendan    not sure are you finding that it doesn't send ?
21:20 wizzyrea   hey, does anybody know if the sip server sends back debarred status?
20:56 jwagner    How about just quitting work :-)
20:56 jwagner    Heading home sounds good.  Oh, wait.  I am home.
20:52 ccurry     I'm heading home now, but I'll submit that enhancement request tomorrow.
20:50 chris      awesome
20:50 ccurry     *I'm
20:50 ccurry     I planning to take a perl course in the near future, so I'll be able to give back soon.
20:50 ccurry     chris: that'd be sweet.  will do.  thanks!
20:50 chris      it might be a good koha code learning exercise for someone at catalyst
20:49 chris      you might want to make an enhancement bug on bugs.koha-community.org and assign it to me
20:49 chris      and the second one, would be a few sql commands
20:49 chris      the first one a wrapper around the code that creates the authorities currently, so you can run it from the commandline
20:48 chris      and remove_unlinked_authorities.pl
20:48 chris      create_authorities.pl
20:48 chris      something like
20:48 chris      ccurry: we could write a script to do both those things
20:48 * jwagner  feels like I've been sentenced, sometimes....
20:47 ccurry     thanks anyway.
20:47 ccurry     *jwagner:  didn't mean to make your userid into a sentence.
20:47 jwagner    I'm afraid that's the limit of my knowledge on authorities, then :-(
20:47 ccurry     jwagner.  there's the link_bibs_to_auth.pl script (or something like that); but I've already run it, and it left a bunch of auths with no bibs linked.
20:42 jwagner    Isn't there a script to run for that?
20:33 ccurry     To clarify that last statement (which is a bit convoluted) I want to use the process used in the record creation process for existing bib records that are missing authority links.
20:32 ccurry     Any ideas?
20:32 ccurry     I wonder if there's a way to utilize the process that creates authority records from the appropriate fields in new records to generate authority records from unlinked subjects and delete the authorities we imported that have no bibs linked.
20:32 ccurry     When we originally migrated our data, we loaded ~ 40,000 auth records corresponding to ~ 200,000 bib records.  I ran the link bibs to authorities script, but it appears that we have some bad data in our authorities (or our bibs?), because some did not link correctly.
20:32 ccurry     I have a question about authorities.
20:29 chris      hi richard
20:29 richard    hi
20:27 ccurry     hello all
20:26 cait       getting late - bye all :)
20:26 ccurry     hi chris
20:25 chris      hi ccurry
20:15 chris      back
20:12 owen       See y'all tomorrow
20:08 wizzyrea   ok, regarding the manual search, for the record, it's fixed :)
20:06 wizzyrea   he falls down a lot anyway :p
20:06 wizzyrea   my poor lil fella isn't so coordinated
20:06 owen       I think my 3yo might take to rugby a little too well
20:05 chris      Brb
20:05 wizzyrea   spud + rugby would be funny
20:05 chris      Rugby
20:05 wizzyrea   right!
20:05 chris      Ok bus stop
20:05 owen       Oh wait, I remember now, the kids are all going to be in an intensive football camp the whole time
20:05 wizzyrea   at least they'd all learn a lot about science.
20:04 wizzyrea   oh now that would be funny
20:04 chris      They can look after them all
20:04 chris      And my kids too
20:04 wizzyrea   lol
20:04 wizzyrea   more likely we're traipsing, and they want to traipse with us, and tell us how we're doing it all wrong
20:03 wizzyrea   you are eeeevil
20:03 wizzyrea   lol
20:03 owen       No, see, the kid is with your parents, you're traipsing around the countryside with your husband
20:03 jcamins    Heh.
20:03 wizzyrea   now, if I could pack my bff in my suitcase, that would be fun.
20:03 wizzyrea   never mind.
20:02 * wizzyrea envisions a scenario of 2 weeks in NZ with her parents... shudders a little
20:02 wizzyrea   owen: you might be on to something there.
20:02 wizzyrea   truf
20:02 jcamins    wizzyrea: I guess you didn't share with them what the weather is like?
20:02 wizzyrea   ^^
20:02 owen       wizzyrea: Too bad, they could help babysit
20:01 chris      lee++
20:01 wizzyrea   well, most of my net friends are, but like, my PARENTS won't be :P
20:01 chris      Did you see we got another sponsor?
20:01 jcamins    wizzyrea: I thought everyone who was anyone (except me;) was going to be in NZ?
20:00 chris      :)
19:59 wizzyrea   guess I'll just have to send email with my new number to people who matter :P
19:59 jwagner    Me neither.  It's on my list, but many things have crept onto said list.
19:59 wizzyrea   oh well.
19:59 wizzyrea   well, lol, that borks that plan then.
19:58 collum     Oh.  Nope.  I haven't looked at that for a while.
19:58 jwagner    I was hoping it was back to the old one of subject search links :-(
19:58 * collum   is afraid of the OCLC police.
19:58 collum     yep.
19:58 jwagner    collum, oh, my earlier question on OpacBrowser?
19:58 collum     The script would be easy enough to translate into English, but OCLC holds the copyright on Dewey.
19:57 chris      Cepting gv only works in the us
19:57 collum     It does create headings based on Dewey in French.
19:57 jwagner    The multiple subject one?  Woohoo!!!
19:57 collum     I believed I used 650a as a parameter.
19:56 collum     I got browsing to work on my test machine.
19:56 chris      I bet there are at least 2 companies between the nz ones and the uk clipping tickets
19:56 jwagner    collum, yes
19:55 collum     jwagner still about?
19:54 wizzyrea   I can get GV from anywhere
19:53 wizzyrea   hm, probably. will have to check (the complicating factor is that I won't have my old number active when I'm in NZ, and I won't know what my new number is until I get there)
19:53 slef       bbl dinner
19:52 slef       *21*destination# IIRC
19:52 slef       why use google voice?  Can't you forward any phone to any phone like I can?
19:52 chris      I think its more likely who is between nz and the uk doing it
19:51 wizzyrea   haha, I almost typo'd that as "somesuck"
19:51 wizzyrea   use google voice to forward my calls to my new number or somesuch
19:51 slef       chris: no, I own my mobile phone company, so I'm pretty sure they don't.  I think it's more likely NZ setting high interconnect prices.
19:51 chris      They have cheapest data here
19:51 chris      Yeah get a vodafone prepay
19:50 slef       wizzyrea: I think I might.
19:50 chris      Yeah that's ur companies scalping
19:50 wizzyrea   I was going to procure a local SIM while I was there. >.>
19:50 slef       Well that's what they charge UK users. :-/
19:50 chris      I pay 10 for 100
19:49 chris      Oh that's not right
19:49 slef       and by eyewatering, I mean like NZ$20/Mb
19:48 chris      Reminds me to talk to si about that
19:48 chris      That's the plan
19:47 slef       I looked at mobile data prices for NZ yesterday.  Eyewatering!  Please tell me there's wifi at the conference...
19:46 chris      Back
19:41 wizzyrea   lol
19:41 wizzyrea   ...that came out a little weird
19:41 wizzyrea   I could look and see who did it for sure but eh, I'm just glad it wasn't me :P
19:41 wizzyrea   dunno, one day it was there, the next, not
19:38 chris      sheesh time for bus already, be back on from the bus
19:35 owen       Hi chris
19:34 chris      morning
19:32 wizzyrea   looks like someone, possibly me even, overwrote it with an older revision, but i can't say that for sure
19:32 wizzyrea   maybe even tomorrow
19:32 wizzyrea   oh right. I can't look at that right this second but will probably get to it by the end of the day
19:31 nengard    had a librarian ask today how to search the manual
19:31 nengard    wizzyrea what hapened to the search on the manual - think I emailed you about it a while ago, but never heard back
19:22 briceSanc  ok! thanks for the answer! We continue to try to find how it works
19:20 jcamins    There's probably some sort of configuration yu need to do to have Koha start using it. I've never used pazpar2, so I don't really know what might come next, though.
19:19 briceSanc  like this : http://pazpardemo.osslabs.biz/pazpar2/jsdemo/
19:19 briceSanc  but we see no difference on Koha
19:19 briceSanc  yes i saw that and we follw all instruction
19:19 jcamins    There are installation instructions there.
19:18 jcamins    briceSanc: http://www.osslabs.biz/koha_library_management_system/installation_guides/pazpar2-federated-search.html
19:16 briceSanc  is it possible to install Pazpar2 on a non-fresh install of Koha 3.2 ? Or do i have to reinstall Koha 3.2 ?
19:15 briceSanc  hi

19:13 chris_n    @wunder 28334
19:13 jwagner    Is that the case?
19:13 jwagner    And while I'm fussing with OPAC and browsing, can someone confirm that the Browse by Subject authority search fields are exclusive? It looks like you can search on any single field, but not multiples.  e.g. Main entry contains and Anywhere contains
19:10 jwagner    I know -- I searched everywhere I could think of & couldn't find anything except the bare mentions in the manual.
19:09 * owen     wishes someone who knew how it worked would supply some documentation
19:08 jwagner    Oh, well, guess we ignore it then.  Thanks.
19:08 jwagner    I remember trying to get it working once before, but that was a long time ago & it never seemed to do anything.
19:08 owen       All I know is that the French headings are built into the script
19:07 jwagner    So it doesn't really apply to US MARC?
19:06 owen       As far as I can tell it's only useful if your patrons want to browse French Dewey categories
18:59 jwagner    I can't find any documentation on it at all, except saying it's an experimental feature.
18:58 jwagner    No one has worked with build_browser_and_cloud.pl script & OpacBrowser syspref?
18:58 * jwagner  wistfully repeats question

13:48 kf         ah, jcamins
13:47 kf         cfrank487: can you show me the sql?
13:47 owen       You only need "items.ccode" if that is part of your call number scheme. Otherwise just items.itemcallnumber
13:46 jcamins    ORDER BY items.ccode, items.itemcallnumber
13:46 jcamins    Add the following to the end:
13:45 jcamins    cfrank487: I did know a few weeks ago. Let me see if I still have that report.
13:45 cfrank487  if not, that's ok...i just prefer not to jump from one stack to the other
13:44 cfrank487  what could i add to the sql to make it do that?
13:44 briceSanc  somebody know how to install Pazpar2 on a non-fresh install of Koha ?
13:44 cfrank487  i want it to sort in ascending order the call number
13:44 cfrank487  it's working good, but..

13:04 munin      chris_n: The operation succeeded.
13:04 chris_n    @later tell chris images have been stored in db blobs for quite some time now; there were fewer permission problems to address doing it that way
13:03 chris_n    pdf uses a 72ppi base resolution, so a 300ppi image will result in a very distorted on screen display
13:02 Mathieu    thanks i'll try them printed
13:01 Mathieu    That explains it then!
13:01 chris_n    the pdf has a display quality image in it and a print quality image in it
13:00 chris_n    the image will be pixelated in the pdf, but not in the print copy
12:59 Mathieu    well the cards are alright it's only the actual image that shows pixelated in the PDF, it goes back to 72
12:58 chris_n    the last cards I printed were not pixelated
12:58 chris_n    yup
12:57 Mathieu    are you using patron image uploader from the manage patron page?
12:56 chris_n    hmm... works fine here
12:56 chris_n    they print at 300ppi
12:56 Mathieu    something is wrong when GraphicsMagick processes the image and converts in PDF
12:56 chris_n    however
12:56 chris_n    they are resized to 72ppi for display on screen and in pdfs
12:56 Mathieu    already did that
12:55 chris_n    Mathieu: upload images at 300ppi

12:14 slef       which you list
12:14 nengard    slef are you asking how do i choose which i join? or which i list? I'll list them all - I don't however put the widgets for the diff sites on my site, seems like a bit too much
12:13 slef       nengard: how do you choose. tripit is one of few I (try to) add to my site because it offers something different
11:54 nengard    I do put links out of my site on the right hand side: http://www.web2learning.net/ but I don't have TripIt there either - too much to keep track of
11:54 nengard    I don't see a place to put a link on TripIt (off to check again)
11:51 slef       indeed... one reason why all my profile URLs are under http://mjr.towers.org.uk/ to encourage people to see that site as most authoritative.  Often I suggest profile readers on other sites look at that or software.coop instead.
11:49 nengard    not like we view our own profiles often
11:49 nengard    i'm sure there are more i haven't updated yet
11:49 nengard    yeah a distributed profile update would help me a lot
11:48 slef       it's not linked from your personal blog, but is guessable
11:48 slef       we need some sort of distributed profile update system... ;-)
11:47 nengard    I didn't update that??? oh boy!! doing it now
11:47 slef       nengard: found you.  Work LibLime ???
11:39 nengard    slef - yes
11:36 slef       nengard: are you on tripit?

08:41 chris      hi magnus
08:00 * robin    leaves that as a task for tomorrow.
07:58 chris      makes sense
07:57 robin      it finds about 2/3rds of them, fails on 1/3rd.
07:56 robin      obvious in hindsight :)
07:56 chris      ah yeah
07:54 robin      Oh goody. I think that the import from natlib rewrote many titles, so they don't match the source data. Going to have to implement a fallback to ISBN I think.
07:52 chris      git even
07:52 chris      luckily they are all in gt
07:52 chris      tightening up everyones permissions and reverting
07:52 robin      crazy
07:51 chris      yep
07:51 robin      srsly?
07:50 chris      someone has been putting spam in the .po files
07:49 chris      damnit
07:31 chris      :)
07:28 * kf       was thinking of something like an ssh key :)

07:18 kf         today for fixing translation bugs
07:17 kf         owen++
07:13 kf         morning #koha
06:17 cait       no problem
06:16 CGI388     thanks
06:16 cait       google koha and excel, you will see that a lot of people use marcedit and perhaps find some hints how to do it
06:16 cait       I think it even includes a tool to convert from csv to marc
06:15 cait       marcedit
06:15 CGI388     it's any tool
06:15 CGI388     how to convert to marc
06:13 cait       marcedit is a good tool to convert data to marc
06:11 cait       koha can import marc redords, unimarc or marc21, depending on your installation
06:11 cait       you have to convert your excel data to marc
06:10 CGI388     how to import on koha
06:10 CGI388     i am new user in koha and a have i ecxel format my biblio records
06:09 CGI388     can i import biblio records on koha?
06:07 cait       hi cgi388
06:06 CGI388     hello
05:11 cait       morning
