00:30 ebegin pianohacker, I already saw some translation using $1 and $2 as parameters.
00:30 pianohacker ebegin: where?
00:30 ebegin __("Widget $1 has been updated $2 times", name, count)
00:30 ebegin I'm not sure if it was in Koha though, let me check
00:33 wizzyrea hi jd
00:34 ebegin pianohacker, __("Widget {2} has been updated {1} times", name, count)
00:34 ebegin http://www.diveintojavascript.[…]avascript-sprintf
00:35 pianohacker ebegin: I like it. Something of a standard, at least :) Do you think context clues will be enough for translators to know what they are?
00:36 ebegin it can not be worst than Select your %s%s%s library %s%s %s %s ;)
00:37 pianohacker ugh, that's awful
00:37 gmcharlt pianohacker: this would be purely client-side?
00:37 pianohacker gmcharlt: Yes
00:38 gmcharlt in that case, rather than reinventing the i18n wheel, something like http://slexaxton.github.io/Jed/ or https://github.com/recurser/jquery-i18n seems a better bet
00:38 pianohacker I'm working on improving JS translation at hackfest, so the translation scripts would pick up and replace the base string
00:40 ebegin be back in few minutes
00:41 pianohacker gmcharlt: I'm not sure it'll solve all our problems, but I'll definitely take a look at Jed
00:41 davidnind_ joined #koha
00:42 pianohacker I like the fact that it doesn't introduce a message id that separates the string from the UI; always thought that made things pretty obtuse (Android UI code, for example)
00:43 gmcharlt another point in its favor (and something that would be useful for any choice) is that it can handled gettext-based message catalogs
00:43 chrisvella94 joined #koha
00:43 gmcharlt since, well -- I don't think we have any choice but to use something that can do that, as splitting apart the ways that translators do their thing strikes me as a non-starter
00:44 pianohacker gmcharlt: Hmm. Would we want to directly feed it the catalog? Even if we have a separate one for JS strings, that's still a decent-sized resource to load
00:45 pianohacker While I can't exactly say I was looking forward to it, I was thinking of modifying the translation scripts
00:46 gmcharlt it can get cached, but the main point is that the outgoing strings and the incoming translations have to be PO files to interact with Pootle
00:46 gmcharlt that doesn't mean that that's the form they have to be used, though, as long as the process for converting them after get get out of Pootle is completely mechanical
00:47 pianohacker right, okay
00:48 pianohacker I'll give Jed a shot. Just trying to find something that can eliminate the requirement to pack all UI code with translatable strings into the templates or use a message catalog...
00:48 pianohacker It's been a pain point with Rancor
00:59 pianohacker aight, I'm out. See you all later.
01:13 eythian joined #koha
01:22 mtj hey #koha...
01:22 mtj does anyone currently use the 'OpacCloud' / build_browser_and_cloud.pl feature, on their Koha?
01:24 mtj …especially anyone on a non french/unimarc system
01:25 mtj sorry, a non-french / non-unimarc Koha
01:25 mtj just curious… :)
01:29 dcook ebegin: You still about?
01:38 ziemore joined #koha
01:38 ziemore hi koha-community
01:38 wizzyrea hiywas
01:38 wizzyrea er hi
01:39 ziemore can i ask some questions, i need help about koha
01:39 eythian ask?
01:39 eythian oh
01:39 eythian wahanui is missing
01:40 wizzyrea go ahead :)
01:40 wahanui joined #koha
01:40 ziemore can i install koha on a hosting site? so that others can access it anywhere?
01:42 eythian it depends on what the hosting site lets you do. In general, it can't be installed on a shared hosting site, but if it's a VPS, then you can.
01:45 ziemore VPS?
01:45 wahanui VPS is probably Virtual Private Server.
01:46 eythian yeah, what wahanui said
01:46 eythian it's like having your own server, but a fair bit cheaper.
01:47 ziemore vps server or dedicated server?
01:48 ziemore my web hosting company offers both, vps will do?
01:50 gmcharlt most likely a VPS will do, but depends on the size of the database -- as in, a really large one would need more care in provisioning VMs or hardware
01:51 gmcharlt so... how many records do you have?
01:52 ziemore currently just around 200 books
01:52 davidnind_ joined #koha
01:52 gmcharlt with that few, it would be very hard to go wrong
01:52 mtj hey ziemore, -> https://www.digitalocean.com/pricing
01:52 jwagner joined #koha
01:53 mtj those VPS are pretty good ^^
01:53 ziemore which is better i get my own server or acquire a VPS?
01:53 talljoy joined #koha
01:53 JDatTeTakere_ joined #koha
01:53 ziemore thanks for the link
01:54 ziemore it would be a great help
01:54 mtj no probs :)
01:54 mtj ziemore, try out a VPS first i think...
01:55 ziemore is there any guides/docs on how to install koha on vps?
01:55 eythian ziemore: they're identical to installing it anywhere else.
01:55 ziemore like installing it to my computer?
01:56 eythian yeah, or to a dedicated server or whatever, it's all virtually the same process.
01:56 mtj ziemore, -> http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]on_Debian_Squeeze
01:57 mtj …thats a good install guide for koha on debian, using .deb packages ^^
01:58 mtj try that installation method first :)
01:59 ziemore i dont need high cores right?
01:59 eythian what does that mean?
01:59 eythian (but, if I guess, probably not.)
02:00 ziemore for example a maximum of 10 people would access  at the same time.
02:01 gmcharlt ziemore: one core would be sufficient for that, although two would be nice
02:01 gmcharlt for your needs, thiere's little reason to pay for more than that
02:02 gmcharlt OK, I believe we have a community meeting scheduled for now?
02:02 gmcharlt who wants to run it?
02:03 ziemore just researchers. accessing those catalogs and try to download if there is available file-- just like that
02:03 gmcharlt ...
02:04 davidnind_ There is, not me! Agenda is here http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]g_5_February_2014

02:07 gmcharlt er,
02:07 BobB joined #koha
02:07 gmcharlt proud
02:07 gmcharlt #topic Announcements
02:07 Topic for #koha is now Announcements (Meeting topic: Koha general meeting, 5 February 2013)
02:08 gmcharlt #action gmcharlt will be calling a general developer meeting for some time in February for general planning and plotting, particularly concerning topics like DBIx::Class
02:08 gmcharlt any other announcements?
02:08 jcamins #info jcamins = Jared Camins-Esakov, C & P Bibliography Services
02:08 BobB #info Bob Birchall, Calyx, sorry I'm late, disconnected
02:10 gmcharlt OK, at the moment it looks like all of the RMaints are away, so I will skip the rmaints updates
02:10 gmcharlt if I'm mistaken and any of the rmaints are around, please speak up
02:10 gmcharlt #topic Update on 3.16
02:10 Topic for #koha is now Update on 3.16 (Meeting topic: Koha general meeting, 5 February 2013)
02:10 gmcharlt #info RM's goal for the end of the month is to clear the passed-QA queue
02:11 gmcharlt other than that, there's some largish stuff that's been percolating that I hope will hit Bugzilla by the end of the month as well, for review in time for beta cutoff
02:12 gmcharlt oh, also
02:12 gmcharlt #info Bugzilla has been set up to allow security bugs to be reported privately
02:12 gmcharlt #link http://koha-community.org/security/
02:12 gmcharlt any questions?
02:13 BobB no questions
02:13 gmcharlt ok
02:13 gmcharlt anybody around who can give an update on KohaCon14?
02:13 thd I had thought that the private supporting of security bugs had been set long ago.
02:14 thd Has the change merely been a change in bugzilla as opposed to the previous use of a private email address?
02:14 gmcharlt thd: not with a tracker behind it, though -- using BZ will help sure that more eyes see things, that the security team can apply the normal QA process, and that there's less of a chance for things to slip through the cracks
02:15 thd s/supporting/reporting/
02:15 gmcharlt it also makes it easier for the discussion of give issues to be made more public after a fix has been released
02:15 thd Thank you for the clarification.
02:16 gmcharlt looks like there's no update for KohaCon
02:16 gmcharlt so ... any other topics that folks wish to bring up before we set a time for the next meeting?
02:17 eythian I think it's a quiet one this time around :)
02:17 davidnind_ Is this the quickest one yet?
02:18 gmcharlt good question
02:18 gmcharlt OK, so let's see about the next meeting time
02:18 gmcharlt #topic Set time for next meeting
02:18 Topic for #koha is now Set time for next meeting (Meeting topic: Koha general meeting, 5 February 2013)
02:18 gmcharlt so, 5 March 2014?
02:18 davidnind_ The next in the sequence is 18:00 UTC
02:18 gmcharlt indeed
02:18 thd This hour has always been a difficult time to attract people.   I argued unsuccessfully in the past for choosing times differently.
02:19 gmcharlt thd: I think this question should be brought up again at the next meeting -- it's not productive to hold meetings at times that barely anybody attends
02:19 * dcook was on the phone
02:20 gmcharlt but for now, any objections to 5 March 2014 18:00 UTC for the next meeting?
02:20 dcook #info David Cook, Sydney, Australia
02:20 davidnind_ Not from me
02:20 gmcharlt #agreed the next community meeting will be held at 18:00 UTC on 5 March 2014
02:20 thd Yes, I will propose that we consider not holding meetings when the time is optimal for people who live in the middle of the ocean.
02:20 talljoy #info Joy Nelson ByWater Solutions
02:21 * talljoy had her days wrong.  sigh.
02:21 JDatTeTakere_ This is a great time for NZ but obviously not so good for other parts of the world
02:21 BobB that's a bit fishy, thd
02:21 wizzyrea #info Liz Rea
02:22 thd Maybe insufficiency of announcement is the more important problem.
02:22 dcook This is actually the one time I probably can do for meetings
02:22 dcook But I usually assume that it's not that time, so I don't pay too much attention to the announcements
02:22 gmcharlt another solution: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3jmdLpsK_k8
02:23 dcook By announcements, I mean reading the topic when I enter the channel
02:23 BobB I agree, and I guess we could do more to promote the meetings, to librarians esp.
02:23 gmcharlt agreed that we need more active promotion
02:23 davidnind_ I tried... an email to list on Sunday, tweet about an hour beforehand
02:24 dcook I don't suppose the meetings are all that relevant for most people
02:24 gmcharlt davidnind++ # clearly the next step involves more ... drastic measures ;)
02:25 gmcharlt anyway, sufficient unto the day
02:25 gmcharlt #endmeeting
02:25 Topic for #koha is now Welcome to #koha - this channel is for discussion of the Koha project and software http://koha-community.org. Koha 3.14.2 is the latest release! The next general IRC meeting is on 5 February 2014 02:00 UTC.

02:25 BobB thx gmcharlt
02:25 davidnind_ gmcharlt++
02:25 talljoy gmcharlt++
02:25 dcook gmcharlt++
02:25 dcook Peer pressure is fun! ^_^
02:25 thd The other issue is making them of some consequential interest without burdening the agenda for an excessively long meeting.
02:26 wizzyrea it's rather encouraging that we don't *need* huge long meetings.
02:26 BobB I think one of the problems is that people who can give updates are often not at the meeting, RMaints, KohaCon organisers,
02:26 wizzyrea things are ticking along.
02:26 BobB so there is not a lot of significant info shared.  It gets a bit routine then.
02:26 dcook I still wonder about the usefulness of having some sort of strategic meetings
02:27 dcook Good point, BobB
02:27 BobB that's true, wizzyrea
02:27 gmcharlt dcook: I think you might have missed it, but that's one of the reasons why I'm calling a developer's meeting for later this month
02:27 gmcharlt something that will have an agenda that's less routine, and hopefully more focused
02:28 dcook Yes, I have missed that, but it sounds good!
02:28 BobB but also re dcook's comment, there is no reason not to put a strategic question on this agenda now and then
02:28 thd wizzyrea: I agree, lack of pressing issues for a meeting is great.   However, complacency and indifference may also set in.
02:28 wizzyrea I would worry about indifference if people weren't submitting patches and the software wasn't improving.
02:28 wizzyrea (more)
02:29 wizzyrea I do worry about it some ;)
02:29 davidnind_ Maybe for the general meeting have a list of topics for discussion over a peiod of time e.g. promotion, website, statistics, particular features, ebooks...
02:29 davidnind_ Something where we can generate some ideas (if we don't have enough already)....
02:29 thd wizzyrea: We are a long way from having the problem which worries maintainers of Wikipedia with declining contributions.
02:30 Topic for #koha is now Welcome to #koha - this channel is for discussion of the Koha project and software http://koha-community.org. Koha 3.14.2 is the latest release! The next general IRC meeting is on 5 March 2014 18:00 UTC.
02:30 wizzyrea ah wikipedia. They were rather swallowed by their own bureaucracy.
02:30 wizzyrea imo.
02:31 thd RDA and Bibframe will eventually eat your Koha if you do not pay more attention ;)
02:32 * wizzyrea doesn't see libraries lining up to pay for that.
02:34 thd wizzyrea: Yes, Koha is not in use at libraries which have to worry about AACR 2 record contributions ending for PCC.
02:34 wizzyrea afaict there is no bureaucratic roadblock to inclusion or modifying Koha to deal with bibframe.
02:35 wizzyrea only economic ones.
02:35 thd wizzyrea: All roadblocks in Koha are merely technical and consequently economic.
02:37 wizzyrea at least we agree on that.
02:37 ziemore how to send private message so i would not disturb meeting?
02:38 wizzyrea ziemore: meeting's over now :) it was short
02:38 wizzyrea go ahead with your questions if you like
02:38 ziemore 1GB Memory 1 Core 30GB SSD Disk 2TB Transfer - koha would run good with this spec of VPS?
02:39 thd wizzyrea: Bibframe is a long term issue.  Sufficient support for RDA is well behind many other more important technical issues for Koha.
02:39 wizzyrea like we always say, if someone would tell us what to do with RDA fields, we'd do something with them.
02:40 gmcharlt ziemore: for your size DB, that's fine
02:41 thd wizzyrea: I should look for some easy RDA tutorials.   I had some for AACR 2 in the old wiki.
02:41 wizzyrea There is already a framework for RDA - we store the data. What to do with it is the current question, and no one seems to want to answer that.
02:42 dcook ^^
02:43 thd wizzyrea: I have not had the time recently to give enough attention to the Koha mailing lists but there are people preparing answers to just those questions with different levels of support for RDA.
02:43 ziemore alright, you guys have idea how much if i would avail own server?(just wanted to know)
02:44 wizzyrea I can't wait to see them.
02:46 thd wizzyrea: RDA MARC implementation is also not a fully settled issue, JSC CC:DA are still very actively working on some important problems.  RDA is far from being a mature standard as AACR 2 had become.
02:48 wajasu joined #koha
02:52 thd wizzyrea: Most cataloguers do not consider the coding of extent to be an important problem but quite a few people concerned with machine operability are waiting on the work of a working group preparing recommendations for separating the quantity being measured, such as number of pages, from the unit being measured, such as pages.  The resolution of such issues should make machine indexing much easier.
02:53 wizzyrea yep, I'm familiar

09:00 raye Hello? I'm working on implementing ILS in a small institute library. I have been thinking of using N computing system, so I would like to know if KOHA supports that system. Actually I want to install one or two servers, and around 10 computers for searching.
09:01 cait raye: I am sorry, not sure what N is?
09:01 petter I think its some kind of client virtualization
09:01 petter raye: koha's interface is a website - so any computer will do
09:02 cait raye: as long as your clients can run a modern browser (firefox or chrome are often used) you shoudl be ok
09:02 cait and on server side debian is easiest because of the packages

14:47 oleonard Is there any aspect of OPAC list permissions that is currently functional?
14:47 oleonard Allowing others to add/remove entries?
14:47 nengard not that i know of
14:48 nengard i was surprised to see it pop up at my last training actually
14:48 nengard thought it was only in the staff client
14:50 oleonard I guess I should test before asking... If I create a public list as User1 and allow anyone else to add entries then User2 can indeed add entries.
14:51 nengard i guess my problem is that most of our libraries don't allow patrons to create public lists and those options still show
14:51 oleonard Yeah I'm working on Bug 10865
14:51 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]_bug.cgi?id=10865 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, oleonard, NEW , Don't show list permissions when adding public lists/sharing lists is not allowed

14:58 nengard I have screenshots from more recently that do not have that
15:00 nengard it was not there in 3.12.4 and it's there is 3.12.7
15:00 nengard (just checked) :)
15:00 nengard brb - pup wants out
15:03 mtompset joined #koha
15:06 oleonard nengard_afk: Did you check 3.12.4 and 3.12.7 on different servers? Looks like caching options only appear if memcached is enabled.
15:08 nengard oh! No I did not
15:08 nengard now ... can you tell me what it means so I can document it? :)
15:10 oleonard I don't understand nengard... You checked out 3.12.4 and then 3.12.7 in the same test system?
15:10 nengard No - I checked on two systems, that's why i saw it on one and not the other - I've never had memcache on on my test system so i never saw it but a partner site does have it on and i saw it for the first time today
15:10 nengard so you're right
15:10 nengard it's related to the preference
15:11 nengard but i'm not sure what it does
15:11 nengard or why it's there so i don't know how to document it
15:11 francharb joined #koha
15:11 oleonard I don't have experience with memcached so I can't advise you.
15:14 cait nengard: it's for the JSON
15:15 nengard oh! for the public report
15:15 cait if you make the report available as JSON and it's constantly rerun that would cause a lot of load
15:15 cait by caching it for x time, this is avoided
15:16 cait if your report is not pulbic, it's still accessible over JSON - using the staff URL and asking you to log in
15:16 cait wlel the JSON data is still accessible... after logging in
15:16 nengard awesome
15:16 nengard i also don't think i documented how to turn on memcaching at all - cause i'm not finding it in the manual
15:17 cait it's something on system adminsitration level, you can#t do it using prefs
15:17 mtompset public report, JSON?! I think
15:17 nengard right
15:17 cait i am struggling with it myself
15:17 mtompset I better read back. :)
15:17 nengard Well I need to include the image cause people will see it but I'll put a note on it that it's a sys admin thing ;)
15:18 cait well if they see it, it's probably active :)
15:24 nengard there, added to manual

15:41 barton I'm trying to track down a bug in serials -- can someone explain how 'periodicity' is defined?
15:42 oleonard Do you mean where the values originate? Or what does it mean?
15:42 barton What does it mean?
15:43 oleonard How often a new issue of a periodical comes out
15:43 barton Is it expressed as issues/year?
15:44 oleonard Check out the subscription_frequencies table
15:44 oleonard There are a bunch of choices
15:44 cait barton: what's the bug you are trying to get a hold on?
15:46 barton We had a number of partners who skipped 2014. Next issue was always in 2015.
15:46 cait hmmm
15:47 cait i had a library that said they used the receive multple issues at once function
15:47 cait and it resulted in 1998 when it shoudl have been 1999
15:47 cait they are starting withs erials, so adding old issues
15:48 cait barton: where they updated to a new version in between? could it besomething in the update going wrong?
15:48 barton cait: I can check, but I don't think so.
15:52 barton Ok, wait ... I misread the ticket. It's a subscription thing.
15:52 nengard it happens when they renew the subscription i think barton
15:52 nengard cause i think that's one i tested and reproduced
15:52 barton yep.
15:55 barton renewing a subscription due on 01/01/2013 => start date of 01/01/2014, but when trying to receive the first issue, it is dated 2015.

15:56 wahanui hi, talljoy
15:59 cait barton: hm
15:59 cait i noticed a difference in koha
15:59 cait sometimes it's using the start date and sometimes the last issue date i think
16:00 cait i mean... it seems to use different things from the subscription for different things, like looking up when a subscription will expire
16:00 barton Yeah, that would do it.
16:00 cait that was my impression
16:04 barton a foolish consistency is the hobgoblin if little minds like mine, apparently.

16:45 mtompset kivilahtio: I know it is a pain, but if you are going to add a parameter to something that already has way too many (>3 in my opinion), could you change the parameter to a single hash and add a key instead?
16:46 Joubu kivilahtio: yep, I'll try to have a look tomorrow
16:47 Joubu kivilahtio: the auth check in the second patch is not right. You check tools => upload_local_cover_images

17:26 kivilahtio mtompset: GetAuthorisedValues is referenced from ~50 places :(
17:26 kivilahtio unfortunately its not within the scope of this patch
17:29 tcohen if you're fixing a bug that you pretend to get pushed to stable releases, don't change the API
17:29 tcohen unless it falls back to current behaviour
17:29 tcohen or it is for a future enhancement
17:34 kivilahtio tcohen: what do you mean?
17:35 tcohen i don't know the context of your talk, but I'd say GetAuthorisedValues shouldn't necesarily change its API
17:35 kivilahtio tcohen: $authvalues = GetAuthorisedValues([$category], [$selected], [$opac], [$branch_limit]);
17:35 tcohen (e.g. changing its parameters to to a hash reference
17:35 kivilahtio this used to be $authvalues = GetAuthorisedValues([$category], [$selected], [$opac]);
17:36 kivilahtio so if $branc_limit is not defined, nothing happens
17:36 kivilahtio 100% compatible with the existing method call
17:36 tcohen exactly, that's what I mean by "unless it falls back to current behaviour"
17:36 tcohen i was against changing the API in a not-backwards compatible way
17:36 kivilahtio tcohen: thanks! Good we clarified that to mtompset :)
17:36 tcohen "unless there is no other way"
17:37 kivilahtio but mtompset is right that it would be much better if we passed hashes around instead of ordered parameters
17:38 kivilahtio tho I am not sure what would be the performance penalty for doing so?
17:39 tcohen probable not much

18:48 oleonard mtompset around?
18:48 * cait waves
18:50 * oleonard tested the "forgot password" patch but didn't get a password recovery email
18:51 cait oleonard: are you sure .size gives the correct result from the database?
18:51 cait my impression was that it only gives you the size of the loop/hash whatever
18:51 cait i ran into that on the cart email
18:51 cait because .size seems to be a TT thing
18:51 oleonard cait: I thought that was going to be the case as well, but when I tried it it worked.
18:51 cait just saw your patch for the top issues
18:51 cait hm interesting
18:51 wahanui rumour has it interesting is sometimes good and sometimes bad
18:52 cait for the cart is was definitely wrong... either that or all my books have the same number of pages :)
18:54 * oleonard wonders why the password recovery feature doesn't use notice templates and the message queue
18:55 cait hm message queue probably because of the processing
18:55 cait i mean it needs to be sent out immediatley
18:55 cait but notice templates... ys
18:55 oleonard The patron registration feature uses the message queue, and it has a similar requirement for immediacy.
18:56 cait ah
18:56 cait how is it solved there? just by running the script more often?
18:58 oleonard I don't consider it solved. You can process the queue more frequently but that breaks the "digest" feature of some notices (since it doesn't give messages time to accumulate)
18:58 * gmcharlt recalls some discussion about adding a priority level for certain message types
18:58 oleonard But it would be nice if we could both solve that problem and keep email sending unified under one system
18:59 gmcharlt so that "fast" messages like password resets would be process immediately, while slower ones would wait a bit
18:59 nengard cait around?
18:59 nengard question about bug 11228 for the manual
18:59 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]_bug.cgi?id=11228 normal, P5 - low, ---, katrin.fischer, Pushed to Stable , Explanation on 'patron notification' is not quite right
18:59 cait yes kind of
18:59 cait just got home, but mostly around
19:00 nengard So - if i add someone to the routing list from the staff client they won't be notified - they have to also subscribe?
19:00 cait yes
19:00 cait routing lists and email alert are not related at all
19:00 nengard got it!
19:00 nengard thanks
19:00 cait np
19:08 cait nengard: saw your comment on the bug now
19:08 cait not sure about the second sentence here:
19:08 cait Selecting a notice will allow patrons to subscribe via the OPAC to notifications when
19:08 cait +          a new issue is received. Patrons added to the list here will only appear on the routing
19:08 cait +          list slip (not be notified via email)
19:08 nengard that's what i was asking
19:08 cait but not sure which picture is shown above
19:09 nengard how would you say it?
19:09 cait the picture is the subscription screen?
19:09 cait Routing lists are separate from email notifications and patrons have to be added to those separately in the serials module
19:09 cait maybe
19:10 cait not sure what 'here' is referring to :)
19:11 cait ideally we should rename the sample notice not to be routing list, it's really confusing, but was harder to do then fixing the note

19:12 jenkins_koha Nicole C. Engard: update routing list info
19:13 nengard In Serials you edited the tip for the Routing List option when adding a subscription - this section of the manual is about routing lists http://manual.koha-community.o[…]/routinglist.html
19:14 nengard my question is this - if I add someone to the routing list - as described in this section of the manual do they get an email when an issue has arrived or do they just show on the routing list that the library prints.
19:19 cait hm i thnk we are misunderstanding each other
19:19 cait the first image and explanation on the manual page can be deleted
19:20 cait you only need to pick a notification, so the link for the email alert shows up in the opac
19:20 cait so it should go whereever this feature is subscribed
19:20 cait if you have none in the pull down, the link for subscribing is not showing in opac
19:20 cait but you can always add a routing list
19:20 nengard so, i can manually create a routing list without this selected? Let me go check on this
19:21 nengard cait it's not me misunderstanding you - it's me misunderstanding stupid serials :) hehe
19:21 cait nengard: yep, as long as you have the routing syspref activated itshould all work
19:21 cait that's why i said the standard template is misnamed
19:21 cait naming it email alert woudl be more accurate
19:22 nengard Okay I need to fix this in not just the current manual but the old ones too
19:22 nengard thanks!

19:30 cait really routing lists
