00:38 mjkerpan         something weird happened.
00:40 mjkerpan         after running an "apt upgrade" command on my koha server, it forgot how it work and when i try to get into the admin interface, it wants to run the web installer
00:59 aleisha          mjkerpan it sounds like your koha has upgraded. if you run through the installer again it will complete the upgrade for you
01:00 mjkerpan         but neither my old password nor the one in koha-conf.xml seem to work
01:01 aleisha          the username is koha_instance
01:01 aleisha          for the installer
01:06 mjkerpan         thanks. it's all fixed
01:06 aleisha          cool :)
01:07 mjkerpan         this stuff used to happen as part of the apckage upgrade process...
01:09 mjkerpan         anyhow, i'll be moving my koha instance to a raspberry pi 4 this week. cutting power usage from 90-100 watts constant to about 2...
01:25 mjkerpan         i would have done it today, but none of the machines at my sf club's library/clubhouse was actually able to flash an image over to a 64 gb micosd card...

12:35 oleonard         HI #koha
12:36 ashimema         hi oleonard
12:36 wahanui          hi oleopard
12:46 * andreashm      waves
14:17 oleonard         Since everyone is so quiet, I shall entertain you with a dialog from my work place:
14:17 oleonard         Librarian: Hey Owen I hate it when Koha searching doesn't work the way I want it to
14:17 oleonard         Me: Okay, can you give me examples?
14:17 oleonard         Me: ...
14:18 oleonard         Me: ...
14:18 oleonard         Me: ... <dead>
14:18 oleonard         And scene.
14:18 ashimema         lol
14:18 andreashm        *applause*
14:18 ashimema         sounds pretty normal that.
14:22 andreashm        yup
14:23 * andreashm      loves when staff report errors after upgrades. "this is new, and wrong." Me: *looks at the server with the previous version* this is the exact same behaviour as before.
14:26 oleonard         But actually they did come to me with a valid query: Why would the inclusion of an en dash cause a keyword search  to fail
14:27 oleonard         is the en dash interpreted as a search operator?
14:31 Joubu            7 result(s) found for 'kw,wrdl: food -'.
14:31 Joubu            is that what you mean?
14:31 oleonard         Yes
14:32 Joubu            so it looks ok here
14:32 Joubu            are you using elastic?
14:33 oleonard         Zebra. The specific query was:  'kw,wrdl: I Am C-3PO – The Inside Story' which returns no results
14:33 oleonard         As opposed to  'kw,wrdl: I Am C-3PO The Inside Story' which returns the correct record
14:35 * Joubu          passes
14:35 Joubu            but it seems to work in some cases..
14:35 Joubu            6 result(s) found for 'kw,wrdl: food - rome'.
14:35 Joubu            6 result(s) found for 'kw,wrdl: food rome'.
14:35 Joubu            it's ignored for me
14:37 oleonard         Joubu: Are you sure you're testing with an en dash and not a hyphen?
14:37 oleonard         A hyphen is ignored for me
14:38 Joubu            no idea what an en dash is, so I guess I am testing with a hyphen :)
14:41 caroline_catlady hello everyone!
14:42 oleonard         en dash: — hyphen: -
14:43 oleonard         Wait, no: em dash: — en dash: –
14:49 eythian          don't forget the swung dash: ⁓
14:49 eythian          or the two-em for that matter: ⸺
14:53 oleonard         ~ ˜ ∼ 〜 ~
14:54 oleonard         ⎯ ⏤ ─ ➖ ⸺ ⸻
14:55 oleonard         Everyone remembers the first time they accidentally used a wave dash 〜 when they should have used a fullwidth tilde ~. So embarassing.
15:03 caroline_catlady oh god, yes, I remember it was april 25 1998, I was in school and the teacher told me in front of the whole class... so embarassing...
15:05 oleonard         Anyone know if it's possible to add a facet for language as defined in 008?
15:06 caroline_catlady oleonard: with zebra or es?
15:06 oleonard         zebra
15:06 oleonard         I guess I'd like to know if it's possible either way. Using zebra now.
15:07 caroline_catlady I think with es you can customize facets much easier
15:08 caroline_catlady with zebra, I know it's possible, because my colleague has done it before, but you have to go into zebra configuration files and things
15:09 oleonard         caroline_catlady: I guess I was assuming Koha's advanced search language limiter uses 008... Do you know if that is correct?
15:09 caroline_catlady yes that's what is used
15:09 caroline_catlady I think the index is called ln (LN)
15:10 oleonard         'ln,rtrn:spa' is what I see on the search results page
15:11 oleonard         Do you know what the "rtrn" means?
15:12 caroline_catlady right truncation
15:13 caroline_catlady in the biblio-koha-indexdefs :
15:13 caroline_catlady <index_control_field tag="008" offset="35" length="3">
15:13 caroline_catlady <target_index>ln:w</target_index>
15:13 caroline_catlady </index_control_field>
15:15 oleonard         Thank you caroline_catlady
15:16 caroline_catlady sorry I can't help more... the knowledge is in the brain of someone else
16:54 caroline_catlady oleonard: would it make more sense to display "Locked" in red rather than green? https://snipboard.io/Gmqegl.jpg
16:54 oleonard         I think so
16:55 caroline_catlady should I open a bz for that do you think?
16:55 oleonard         Yes
17:02 caroline_catlady I put it in "Templates" so it was automatically assigned to you, bug 24012

17:04 * oleonard       felt a disturbance in the Force
17:28 * ashimema       send subliminal message to remember colour blind users
17:31 caroline_catlady ashimema: what would be the best for colour-blind users?
17:31 oleonard         Add a "lock" icon?
17:31 caroline_catlady I would like an icon even if I'm not colour blind :)
17:33 ashimema         Great idea.
17:34 ashimema         Red is good too for the not colour blind.. but I generally like to ask the question when someone adds something colour based to the UI
17:34 ashimema         Icon in addition to red would be great
17:40 caroline_catlady I added a comment to the bz so we don't forget

20:36 huginn           Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=10047 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, gmcharlt, NEW , Cataloguing search maybe useless?
20:37 corilynn         specifically "You could add it to advanced search pull downs using jQuery"
21:07 cait             ah sorry corilynn - was distracted
21:07 corilynn         no worries
21:07 cait             are yo ustill around?
21:07 corilynn         I am
21:07 cait             so does it work for you when you search in keyword search like this: Control-number:xxx
21:07 corilynn         in the cataloging search?
21:08 cait             in the advanced search
21:08 corilynn         hold on
21:08 corilynn         you mean the left hand search area in the "Advanced Cataloging Editor"?
21:09 cait             oh
21:09 cait             i think it might be a misunderstanding
21:09 cait             > We currently use the cataloging search because the Advanced Search doesn't > support searching by control number.
21:09 cait             is what you wrote - did you mean Advanced Editor?
21:10 corilynn         it doesn't work on the catalog search either
21:10 corilynn         No results found
21:10 corilynn         No results match your search for 'Control-number:ghp0000001'.
21:10 corilynn         wait, i'm on the wrong koha instance.
21:10 cait             can you give me the url? I think we might be in different spots, just to check
21:10 cait             wlel the last bit of the url
21:11 corilynn         ok, that works on this page: /cgi-bin/koha/catalogue/search.pl?q=Control-number%3Aghp0000001
21:12 corilynn         I wrote a bug for this page: /cgi-bin/koha/cataloguing/addbooks.pl
21:12 corilynn         hold on and I'll find it
21:13 corilynn         Bug 23941
21:13 huginn           Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=23941 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, koha-bugs, NEW , Searching by Control Number doesn't return bibs in the "reservoir"
21:14 cait             hm works for me... for addbooks - but nothing in reservoir int his installation, but I can find the record sin the normal catalog
21:14 cait             using the Cataloging search
21:14 cait             i wonder if this is due to some ... tricks... we use
21:14 corilynn         I can find it in the catalog
21:14 cait             we have mapped 001 to the biblio(items).ean column
21:14 corilynn         but not the reservoir
21:14 cait             ok, so we have the same result then
21:14 cait             i misunderstood, thought you were talking about advanced search
21:15 cait             there it would have been easy to solve... the reservoir is an sql based search so probably harder
21:15 corilynn         right, so in the "Advanced Editor" search it won't search by control number at all
21:15 cait             yep
21:15 cait             well not good,... but it makes all sense now
21:16 corilynn         even though it has a field for it
21:16 cait             hm not good
21:16 corilynn         https://paste.pics/4ad8738457636c4be4dba6bd13ba29e1
21:16 cait             probably something to do with the bib 1 attributes used
21:17 corilynn         well, if it's configurable, i'd love to configure it
21:17 corilynn         (and, at the top of that page it says "Advanced Search"
21:17 cait             not at the moment :(
21:17 cait             yeah, so we have mulitple of those
21:17 cait             :)
21:17 corilynn         so here's my point... if it works in search A, can we make it work in B, C, D, E etc?
21:18 corilynn         the cataloging searches seem like such a hodge-podge
21:18 cait             hodge-podge?
21:18 corilynn         "Confused mixture"
21:19 corilynn         hotchpotch describes a confused or disorderly mass or collection of things; a "mess" or a "jumble"
21:19 cait             aha!
21:19 cait             a good word
21:19 corilynn         one of my favorites
21:21 * andreashm      waves
21:22 corilynn         cait, do you know how to do a "left justified" search?
21:22 cait             do you mean something like *something ?
21:22 corilynn         One of the catalogers wants to search titles that start with "Apple" not just have apple somewhere in the title
21:23 cait             i'd always turn of autoquerytruncate to be honest
21:23 cait             and truncate manually
21:23 cait             it might work if they do ti,rtrn:Apple
21:24 caroline_catlady corilynn: startswithnt : subfield starts with
21:24 cait             ooh
21:24 corilynn         wait, what?
21:24 wahanui          hmmm... wait, is 4XX for subjects?
21:24 cait             is thatin the manual?
21:24 caroline_catlady or ti,first-in-subfield=C (will show you all titles that start with the letter ‘C’)
21:24 caroline_catlady https://koha-community.org/manual/18.11/en/html/searching.html#guide-to-searching
21:25 caroline_catlady never tried it first hand though
21:25 corilynn         4xx is for series
21:25 cait             wahanui is just trying to confuse us :)
21:25 corilynn         seriously
21:25 cait             wahanui botsnack cookie
21:25 wahanui          thanks cait :)
21:26 cait             forget wait, what
21:26 wahanui          wait, is 4XX for subjects?
21:26 cait             wahanui: forget 'wait, what'
21:26 wahanui          cait, I didn't have anything matching 'wait, what'
21:26 cait             hmpf
21:26 caroline_catlady just wait maybe?
21:26 corilynn         oh, wahanui is the bot, I always forget
21:26 corilynn         Where do I put startswithnt ?
21:27 caroline_catlady normally, you put it in the search bar, preceded by the index you want ti search in, so ti,startswithnt:Apple
21:27 caroline_catlady wahanui: forget wait
21:27 wahanui          caroline_catlady: I forgot wait
21:27 caroline_catlady wait, what?
21:27 wahanui          wait, is 4XX for subjects?
21:27 caroline_catlady -_-
21:28 corilynn         that doesn't seem to work, caroline_catlady
21:28 caroline_catlady wahanui: forget 4XX
21:28 wahanui          caroline_catlady: I forgot 4xx
21:28 caroline_catlady wait, what?
21:28 wahanui          rumour has it wait, is 4XX for subjects
21:28 caroline_catlady lol... -_-
21:28 corilynn         I"m here: /cgi-bin/koha/catalogue/search.pl
21:28 caroline_catlady wahanui: forget wait,
21:28 wahanui          caroline_catlady: I forgot wait,
21:28 corilynn         and I put that search string .. where?
21:28 caroline_catlady wait, what?
21:29 caroline_catlady excellent!
21:29 wahanui          darn tootin' it is.
21:29 caroline_catlady corilynn: in any search bar
21:29 corilynn         it says "no patron"
21:29 caroline_catlady ok, any search bar that searches for records
21:30 corilynn         not working :(
21:30 corilynn         ok, i'm here: /cgi-bin/koha/cataloguing/addbooks.pl
21:30 corilynn         I type in "Oracle"
21:31 corilynn         there's a record with a title "The oracle"
21:32 caroline_catlady that makes sense
21:32 corilynn         I put "ti,startswithnt:Oracle" and no results
21:32 corilynn         I also tried lower case
21:33 corilynn         does this work for you?
21:33 corilynn         do I need to search somewhere else?
21:33 caroline_catlady just a second
21:39 corilynn         I figured it out, but Booo :(
21:39 corilynn         I have to put "The oracle"
21:40 corilynn         nope, nevermind, doesn't work for "Dust"
21:54 corilynn         this works: ti,first-in-subfield=Cats
21:54 corilynn         but not if the title is "The Cats"
21:56 caroline_catlady just to make sure, what are the indicators in field 245 for !The Cats"?
21:56 caroline_catlady Oh, wait
21:56 caroline_catlady I think indicators don't work with zebra
21:56 corilynn         they do not
21:56 corilynn         :(
21:57 cait             notquite true
21:57 cait             they work, bu tonly for sorting
21:57 cait             if you sort on title
21:58 cait             and use zebra
21:58 corilynn         ah, but you can't sort by anything on /cgi-bin/koha/cataloguing/addbooks.pl
21:58 corilynn         so, Hodgepodge :(
21:58 cait             ah ok, yep
