Time Nick Message 14:19 fbcit g'morning koha 14:21 owen Hi fbcit 15:00 gmcharlt hello all 15:00 gmcharlt owen: got a minute? 15:01 owen Yes 15:01 gmcharlt please take a look at bug 1809 -- wonder if you have any advice for the UI 15:01 gmcharlt one issue is that all items columns are displayed in table -- that could be cut down to a smaller set of important ones 15:04 owen gmcharlt: I think the only solution is to pare down the columns in that table 15:04 gmcharlt owen: ok, thanks 15:04 owen I wonder if it's something that could be added to frameworks definitions? 15:05 gmcharlt owen: possible, yes, though IMO too many display settings are expressed in the MARC frameworks 15:06 gmcharlt owen: thought adding yet another syspref doesn't seem ideal either 15:06 gmcharlt s/thought/though/ 15:06 owen Yeah, that's what I was thinking 15:07 owen If the frameworks weren't so hard to work with it might be easier to think of going with that method 15:08 gmcharlt for the item editor, you only really need to see enough to identify the item you want to work with, so maybe we can getting away with just picking 5 or 6 columns, e.g., barcode, homebranch, holdingbranch, location, callnumber, and enum/chron 15:10 owen I agree, although inevitably you'll get people who say, "but we need to see x, y, and z too!" --I'm likely to be that person ;) 15:11 gmcharlt yeah, true enough :) 15:12 gmcharlt though I wonder if sometimes when designing a UI (particularly for the staff side) it's better to not make *everything* infinitely configurable and flexible, but go with well-chosen defaults when possible 15:13 owen I think that's true: Make good choices for the defaults, and bury the setting just deep enough that people don't feel like they *need* to fiddle with them 15:52 fbcit user's fiddle with settings?... never! 20:28 fbcit to what is the 'patronimages' relative? 20:28 fbcit and why do we not create it by default during installation? 20:30 fbcit patronimages dir, that is 20:32 fbcit found the answer to the first question... 20:38 fbcit does the patronimages feature actually work? 20:45 owen fbcit: Are you talking about the upload aspect, or the display? 20:46 owen The display works, if you can get your images uploaded 20:46 fbcit the upload aspect. 20:46 owen I think the upload process is a little convoluted, although I'm not sure how you'd do it better. 20:46 fbcit seems the script cannot write to /tmp 20:47 fbcit although everyone has rwx 20:47 owen I can see from my description of Bug 1618 that the upload process /can/ work properly 20:48 owen It's been a while since I tested it 20:54 fbcit owen: the script is wanting write permission to /tmp... 20:54 fbcit is that permissible from the koha-httpd.conf standpoint? 20:57 owen No, I'm sure the intention is to refer to /tmp 20:58 fbcit heh...
