hey all |
| 11:31 |
|
kyle |
I was wondering, is there a template variable available to all the templates that contains the 'logged in' branch name? |
| 11:31 |
|
kyle |
I'd swear that I saw the branch name in the header of the NPL templates, but I don't see it anymore. |
| 11:32 |
|
kyle |
I'm referring to dev_week of course ; ) |
| 11:35 |
|
kados |
hmmm, owen would know |
| 11:36 |
|
hdl |
kyle : this must be in Auth.pm |
| 11:37 |
|
kyle |
Yeah, I was hoping owen would be around. I know Paul added such a variable in 3.0, because it was when we were in France, and I was with him at the time. However, I'd swear I saw the same thing in NPL's templates, but it must've been a different variable name, becuase the branchname was still not showing up in our templates. |
| 11:37 |
|
kyle |
That or I'm just plain crazy. Certainly a possibility ; ) |
| 11:46 |
|
paul |
kyle: I don't remember adding such a variable, but hdl is right, it should be in Auth.pm. |
| 11:46 |
|
paul |
some are in get_template_and_user also |
| 11:46 |
|
paul |
(even if it's crazy to have 2 places for global availability variables |

Is koha lacking a facility to add messages to library items? That is, attach a message to an item the same way a librarian can attach a message to a patron. |
| 12:56 |
|
kyle |
I don't even see a message field in the 'items' table |
| 12:57 |
|
kyle |
my bad, it's called 'itemnotes' in the 'items' table, still I can find no facility to put anything in itemnotes in any of the template sets in dev_week |

hi kyle |
| 13:30 |
|
kyle |
hey |
| 13:30 |
|
rch |
kyle: if itemnotes is mapped to marc field, you can edit in additem.pl (edit items) |
| 13:31 |
|
kyle |
I added a note to an item, but I couldn't not find said note the itemnotes field, is that correct behavior? |
| 13:31 |
|
kyle |
The note exists, but it's stored elsewhere. |
| 13:32 |
|
rch |
where's that? |
| 13:32 |
|
kyle |
using additem.pl |
| 13:32 |
|
kyle |
I don't know where, I can't find it ; ) |
| 13:32 |
|
rch |
is that field mapped to items.itemnotes? |
| 13:33 |
|
rch |
you are looking at 952$w in additem.pl ? |
| 13:33 |
|
kyle |
I'm guessing not, because when I added the note 'testnote' to an item, I search for any items that had *any* note and the search came up with nothing. |
| 13:34 |
|
kyle |
where would I check the mapping? |
| 13:35 |
|
kyle |
ok, I found the mapping, and it has items.itemnotes mapped to 952 z - Public note |
| 13:36 |
|
kyle |
On mine, 952$w is 'Price effective from' |
| 13:36 |
|
rch |
ah, right. |
| 13:36 |
|
rch |
so it's just a search problem? then you are not mapped correctly in zebra? |
| 13:37 |
|
kyle |
I don't know. Here's the state of the union: I can create a 952 z - Public Note. Next time I edit the record, it is still there. It's just that I can't find where it is stored. |
| 13:38 |
|
kyle |
What I really want is for a public note to appear on detail.pl if said note exists. Any idea if there is already a template variable for public notes? |
| 13:44 |
|
kyle |
... |
| 13:47 |
|
rch |
yes... |
| 13:48 |
|
kyle |
there is? do you know what the var is named? |
| 13:48 |
|
rch |
the detail page has a biblio loop and an items loop, |
| 13:48 |
|
kyle |
ok |
| 13:48 |
|
rch |
these contain all the columns in the tables |
| 13:48 |
|
rch |
so tmpl_var itemnotes |
| 13:48 |
|
rch |
used inside the ITEM loop should work |
| 13:49 |
|
rch |
... |
| 13:49 |
|
rch |
yeah, ITEM_RESULTS is the loop name. |
| 13:50 |
|
kyle |
excellent. Thanks for your help. |
