I"m going to go do that now. 14:01 wizzyrea if you do it from the moredetail.pl, when you mark an item lost it checks it in and puts the fee on the patron's account (right) 14:00 wizzyrea it will mark it lost, but not check it in (wrong) 14:00 wizzyrea and you mark it lost on additem.pl 14:00 wizzyrea so if you have an item that is checked out 13:57 * wizzyrea goes to file a bug 13:56 sekjal wizzyrea: do tell! 13:56 wizzyrea one of my librarians just found a bug on additem.pl 13:55 wizzyrea ooo 13:43 nengard ttyl 13:43 nengard webinar time 13:38 magnuse hm, that menu is misbehving on some other pages too - i wonder why 13:37 ebegin FF4 on XP 13:37 ebegin magnuse, I do have that too 13:35 magnuse does anyone else have the left hand menu right at the bottom of this page - or is it just me? http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Newbie_guide (FF 3.6.16 on OS X) 13:33 kf :) 13:33 danke yep. my actual name is dan keast, i've always liked that chopping the end off does that 13:32 kf ah, your name means thank you in German 13:32 danke nope, the uk 13:32 kf are you from germany? 13:32 kf hi danke 13:32 danke will do, thank you 13:31 sekjal danke: you're very welcome. let us know if anything comes up in the process 13:31 danke to be expected really 13:31 sekjal restoring from it, you'd need to rebuild the indexes, which takes time, but is all scripted 13:31 danke thank you! 13:31 danke haha, yes. i love open source 13:31 sekjal it's a very good backup 13:31 sekjal yes 13:30 danke like... running mysqldump will be a good backup of the system? 13:30 danke wow, excellent. so literally everything i need is in the mysql db? 13:30 sekjal upload the database, and the installer will update it's structure for you 13:30 sekjal danke: that would also be doable. dump your database on the old system, note your configurations, then do a fresh install on the new machine 13:29 danke :) 13:29 danke how about moving onto a new machine? it's on a minitx box at the moment! 13:29 sekjal very 13:29 danke excellent... how easy is the upgrade path? 13:28 sekjal danke: Koha 3.2 has a significant rewrite of the label creator 13:28 sekjal welcome, magnuse! 13:28 danke i'm on koha 3.0, and when i genrate barcodes with low numbers... the width overruns the layout. is this bug fixed in later versions? i can't find anything 13:27 magnuse yeah, should have thought about that - thanks sekjal! 13:27 kf ah, I am too slow 13:27 kf magnuse: nekls? 13:25 sekjal http://masscat.bywatersolutions.com/ does not 13:25 sekjal http://catalog.nexpresslibrary.org/ has the dropdown 13:22 magnuse sekjal: both would be interesting 13:22 sekjal magnuse: does the dropdown for branch selection need to be on, or do the branches just need to be configured in the system? 13:20 magnuse wanted: an example of a live opac with lots of branches 12:28 NateC Why thank you 12:28 * druthb hands NateC the Velcro 12:26 huginn kf: The operation succeeded. 12:26 kf @later tell wizzyrea http://git.koha-community.org/gitweb/?p=koha.git;a=commit;h=b7270536e42ced349fdbf72d63c795f4d4eb6384 12:25 kf wizzyrea: around? 12:16 AmitG heya nengard 12:15 nengard hiya 12:14 jwagner Hi AmitG 12:14 AmitG heya nengard, jwagner 10:40 druthb o/ 10:38 * kf waves at druthb :) 10:37 druthb hi, kmkale. :) 10:37 * kmkale waves at druthb 09:35 kf rangi: still around? 09:33 kmkale hi kf 09:32 kf hi kmkale :) 09:30 kmkale Namaskar #koha 08:50 kf sophie_m++ for fixing the english message names :) 08:50 kf hi paul_p and sophie_m 08:44 jransom Paul :) 08:20 kf hi again AmitG :) 08:19 AmitG heya kf 08:13 kf hi #koha 07:55 AmitG heya julian 07:53 julian hi #koha 07:51 sophie_m hello #koha 07:50 AmitG heya sophie_m 07:41 cait ok, time to go 07:31 cait hi rangi 07:22 jransom hey Chris 07:22 rangi evening 07:12 jransom hi Amit 07:10 cait hi AmitG 07:09 AmitG jransom: today SA vs NZ 07:09 AmitG heya cait 07:09 AmitG heya jrasnsom 07:05 cait hi jransom 07:03 jransom heya Cait, Brendan 06:53 cait hi brendan_ 06:52 brendan_ heya cait 06:51 cait hi #koha 04:46 wahanui i don't know, amitg 04:46 AmitG wahanui : u mean pakistan is nepal? 04:45 Oak why would I do that AmitG ? 04:44 AmitG your real name 04:44 Oak yes AmitG 04:44 wahanui ...but wahanui is a bot... 04:44 Oak wahanui, you are mistaken 04:44 AmitG Oak r u from pakistan 04:44 wahanui Pakistan is Nepal now, unless I missed something.
