11:33 nengard   morning all
11:46 kados     hey nengard
11:46 nengard   hiya
11:47 kados     nengard: http://opacdemo.koha.org/cgi-bin/koha/opac-search.pl?q=call
11:48 nengard   kados what am i looking at?
11:48 kados     nengard: oh, just an alternative display of the OPAC results page
11:48 kados     sorry :-)
11:49 kados     somewhat random
11:49 nengard   no problem :) just thought I was trying to find something specific and new :) hehe
11:49 nengard   I personally prefer results like this - no images ... maybe because I come from liraries that didn't use jackets
11:49 kados     well, the icons are new
11:49 nengard   :)
11:49 kados     they are built with XSL
11:49 nengard   book & music icons - neat!
11:49 kados     and they use the MARC material types
11:50 nengard   after PLA and the manual I need some training on editing templates - so i can learn that part of the system
11:51 kados     yea
11:52 nengard   i have an enhancement request - i'll submit it -but here it is on this results page - in the search box it says call if I click on a facet then it stays call, but on the top left it says ""callbranch:MPL" if I put that in the search box it doesn't work - if I put a space after "call" it still doesn't work
11:52 nengard   it would be nice - as a librarian - to be able to use these terms in my searching instead of going to an advanced search page - if possible
11:54 kados     what would call mean?
11:54 kados     where is that coming from?
11:54 kados     nengard: what you're describing should already be posible
11:55 kados     the call is junk, I've no idea how it's getting in there
11:55 nengard   :)
11:55 kados     oh ... it's the search term itself
11:55 kados     duh
12:06 nengard   hehe
12:06 nengard   kados - so what does this mean? it's a bug? or is it an enhancement request?
12:07 kados     nengard: it's a bug with the search syntax, file it under Searching
12:07 nengard   k
12:12 nengard   kados: done
12:13 kados     thx
12:23 nengard   okay - i might be missing something - but after you put items in your basket for acquisitions - then what? how do you send the order to the vendor? or print the order? or can you not do that - you just put the order in the system and then wait for it to arrive?
12:24 kados     nengard: printing could be done via a stylesheet if we had one by default
12:24 nengard   kados - but we don't - right? so I just stop writing after the order has been entered - and then skip to how to receive an order?
12:24 kados     *nod*
12:24 nengard   k
13:03 nengard   how does 'Late issues' work? I changed the order date to 1 day and then clicked Filter and i didn't get the orders that were older than 1 day - so - i don't know how this thing works ;)
13:17 kados     hey owen
13:17 owen      Hi
13:18 owen      What's new? It's been 17 hours! :)
13:21 nengard   hehe
13:34 nengard   question repeat: how does 'Late issues' work? I changed the order date to 1 day and then clicked Filter and i didn't get the orders that were older than 1 day - so - i don't know how this thing works ;)
13:34 frederic_ hi
13:35 frederic_ kados: Did you get my email? Any chance to test/include this patch?
13:42 kados     frederic_: I did get it, and I'll do my best to test today
13:44 frederic_ Thanks. Just to be sure it went through.
14:30 nengard   when receiving an order why can't i update the quantity received?  this seems like a bug, but i want to be sure it is before i report it
14:32 nengard   ahh - just saw that i can click the + to get another item - but i think we should be able to edit the number as well
14:32 nengard   so - not a bug - but enhancement
14:41 ryan      nengard: if you have serialsadditems syspref set to on, then each one you receive creates a new item
14:41 ryan      so the plus button gives you extra input fields to add item info
14:42 nengard   what if i'm just receiving monographs ....
14:42 ryan      oh, misread your question :)
14:42 nengard   i just want to type 2 in the qty box and have the extra field show up
14:44 ryan      you mean if you receive more items than you ordered ?
14:45 ryan      oh, i see
14:45 ryan      yeah, could add a plus button next to qty received
14:46 nengard   no - i ordered 2 but when i click receive it only has 1 in the qty box
14:46 nengard   so i have to hit the +
14:46 nengard   which is fine - i'd just like to be able to also type 2 in the box
14:47 ryan      just easier to control with javascript with just the plus buttons
14:47 ryan      if you're on 4 and you change it to 2, should the page auto-delete the last two entry fieldsets ?
14:48 nengard   i'd think so
14:48 ryan      plus button lets us not have to answer it
14:48 nengard   actually - the "-" (minus) is hard to see - I had too many and had no idea what to do
14:48 nengard   rayn :) that's fine
14:48 nengard   I have another acq uestion
14:48 nengard   question
14:48 ryan      agreed re: '-'
14:48 nengard   say i'm adding itmes to my shipment
14:49 nengard   and I'm done- now what? I don't see a done or save button
14:49 nengard   .....
14:49 nengard   rayn = ryan - I don't know why i can't type your name!!!
14:49 ryan      i tend to type ruan
14:49 nengard   :) that makes me feel better - since it is your name ;)
14:49 ryan      :)
14:49 ryan      are you referring to orderreceive.pl
14:49 ryan      ?
14:50 ryan      you have no save button ?
14:51 nengard   koha/acqui/parcel.pl?invoice=123456&supplierid=2&datereceived=2008-03-21
14:52 ryan      ah, yes
14:52 ryan      that is confusing.
14:53 nengard   :)
14:53 nengard   now try and write the manual for it :)
14:54 ryan      enhancement: add a 'done' button
14:54 nengard   :) - so i should write that - or did you?
14:54 ryan      go ahead and add it
14:54 nengard   and is it an enhancement? or bug? what do I do when I'm done? just browse away?
14:54 nengard   I'll add now
14:55 ryan      yeah, should probably let you go back to either 'receive shipments from this vendor' or acqui home page.
14:56 nengard   is there a way later to search for shipments?
14:56 ryan      there's no concept of a 'completed' parcel, so you can add new orders to a shipment at any time
14:56 nengard   ah
14:56 nengard   k
14:56 ryan      but that would be good to 'close' the shipment
14:56 ryan      the way you close a basket
14:57 ryan      cgi-bin/koha/acqui/parcels.pl
14:57 ryan      has a filter for search.
14:57 ryan      it's by vendor automatically
14:58 nengard   where is the link to parcels.pl?
15:00 ryan      'receive order' from the vendor search
15:01 ryan      or 'receive parcel' from the vendor summary page
15:02 ryan      these should both be 'receive shipment' to keep the terms consistent
15:02 ryan      nengard: i will update these links now
15:02 nengard   ryan: okay
18:16 nengard   question repeat: how does 'Late issues' work? I changed the order date to 1 day and then clicked Filter and i didn't get the orders that were older than 1 day - so - i don't know how this thing works ;)
18:37 hdl       nengard : filter on date, not on day
18:38 nengard   hdl: but in the box it has 30 and the text box says "days" after it
18:38 hdl       MMM. coming onto the page.
18:39 hdl       It's been a long time
19:07 nengard   hdl: gmcharlt was able to help me
19:14 hdl       gmcharlt: do you have memoryleaks problems with firefox ?
19:16 gmcharlt  yeah, every couple of days I have to close my FireFox 2 session on OS X
19:16 gmcharlt  hopefully FF3 will improve things
19:16 hdl       Is it owed to Koha or is it rather general ?
19:17 gmcharlt  it's general, I believe
19:17 gmcharlt  though it's possible that Koha may have a couple JavaScript bugs that don't help
19:17 hdl       FF took 60% of my GB RAM.
19:18 hdl       and this made work impossible.
19:18 gmcharlt  how long had it been open?
19:22 hdl       2days.
19:23 hdl       So it seems we are experiencing the same problems.
19:24 gmcharlt  yep; just a long-standing known issue with FF
19:25 hdl       gmcharlt: which page was nengard having problems with ?
19:26 gmcharlt  acqui/lateorders.pl
19:26 gmcharlt  wasn't immediately clear what definition of "late order" is for the purpose of this report
19:27 hdl       issues for me referred to serials.
19:27 gmcharlt  link to acqui/lateorders.pl says "Late orders"
19:27 gmcharlt  page itself says "late issues" :)
19:28 hdl       But there is no general page to track late serial numbers down. (I thought there was one.
19:28 hdl       Could be handy)
19:29 hdl       of course there is : called : claims.
19:33 gmcharlt  yep
