19:04 caroline @later tell rangi Hey rangi Are you the one I'm supposed to contact to change the 'latest' link for the manual? Right now https://koha-community.org/manual/latest/en/html/ goes to 20.11, but the latest branch on gitlab is 22.05 https://gitlab.com/koha-community/koha-manual/-/tree/manual22.05.x Let me know if you need more info. Thanks!

18:59 caroline @later tell wizzyrea Hi Liz! Are you the one I'm supposed to contact to change the 'latest' link for the manual? Right now https://koha-community.org/manual/latest/en/html/ goes to 20.11, but the latest branch on gitlab is 22.05 https://gitlab.com/koha-community/koha-manual/-/tree/manual22.05.x Let me know if you need more info.

18:55 cait     I am not sure... liz maybe? or rangi?
18:53 caroline https://koha-community.org/manual/latest/en/html/
18:53 caroline rn latest goes to 20.11, which is... way back
18:52 caroline Does anyone remember who we're supposed to ping to update the 'latest' link in the manual?

16:21 caroline I think lukeg excited everyone at Kohacon when he showed it!
16:20 ashimema Indeed it is
16:18 caroline It's still a very cool feature!
16:17 ashimema Lots of little things like this
16:17 ashimema The pages stuff needs a fair bit more work in my opinion
16:16 caroline Ok I'll write a bug report
16:16 oleonard caroline: I suspect it's an oversight. Something we should have caught in testing for sure.
16:12 caroline So far, I only see that it removes it from the list of "active" pages in the staff interface (additional-contents.pl), but the links are still valid and accessible
16:11 caroline I'm wondering if it has a specific purpose or if it's a relic from copying the news tool that wasn't removed or adapted
16:09 oleonard caroline: Should it return a 404 error instead? That seems logical to me. Or a more specific "this page has expired" message.
16:07 caroline thank you tcohen!
16:07 caroline I'm wondering what the expiration of a page does... The URL of an expired page is still valid, so what is the point?
16:07 tcohen   happy birthday, caroline
16:07 oleonard caroline: Just in testing
16:07 wahanui  well, marcelr is just amazed that next is faster than count
16:07 tcohen   marcelr?

16:07 caroline Has anyone around worked on the "pages" tool? bug 15326
14:49 cait     hi there
14:48 lukeg    hi
14:30 caroline thank you ashimema!
14:28 ashimema happy birthday ! 🙂
14:21 caroline thank you cait!
14:19 cait     Happy birthday, caroline!
14:19 cait     oh no
14:09 caroline thank you oleonard!
14:09 oleonard Happy birthday caroline!
13:52 caroline glad you found a way around it!
13:52 caroline Préparation des notices MARC is the fr-CA translation... not sure what it is in fr-FR, it is the importing tool (stage MARC records)
13:51 anne     Thanks Caroline, I don't have "Préparation des notices Marc" but I have "Gestion des modèles de transformation MARC". I used it to create a new template to delete items 859a, 995b and 995c. I used this template when importing and it worked. Merci ;)
13:43 ashimema i was considering a global scoped variable.. but that feels a bit funky somehow.
13:42 ashimema do we have a best practice way to get at teh currently logged in users borrowernumber in the staff client from javascript?
13:39 caroline In Outils>Préparation des notices MARC, you should have a section for items, just choose No
13:36 anne     Yes FLTE is their branchcode and IBB is mine. How can I skip this item fields ?
13:29 caroline Do you need the item fields? If you're just importing the bibliographic records, you can skip checking the item fields
13:26 caroline And FLTE is their branchcode and IBB is yours?
13:24 anne     It's Unimarc
13:21 caroline Hi anne, Is this UNIMARC? I don't recognize the fields
13:20 anne     Hi there. Another library allowed me to import their article records (from Koha). How do I import them into my library (dewey classification) I have fields 850$a=FLTE; 995$b=FLTE; 995$c=FLTE I would like to change these fields to IBB I did that in the file, but the import doesn't work. I guess it's because there are 3 characters instead of 4. Is there a control number? So how to solve this problem ?
12:02 oleonard You're welcome!
12:01 zb       thanks for helping me on figuring out the options!
12:01 zb       yup. i think we tried to get rid of ccode-based rules a year ago or so, but maybe we still have them somewhere in some library...
12:00 oleonard it must be a customization
11:57 zb       hmm. we do have collection code available in circ rules of our test installation, but maybe this was a non-standard feature
11:55 zb       ah, that is then something for me to keep in mind
11:54 oleonard Still item type + library + patron category.
11:54 oleonard No.
11:54 zb       i think in the past you couldn’t make circulation rules based on ccode but maybe now you can?
11:54 zb       ah :)
11:53 oleonard Not necessarily, because ccodes don't have to be used in any particular way. We (a public library) generally use them to define genres
11:52 zb       oleonard: would shelving locations be better than ccodes?
11:51 oleonard zb: It makes me wonder if A and B could be considered one library in Koha and use shelving locations to differentiate the collection. But then you couldn't easily get separate statistics
11:50 zb       i suspect that in the actual case i have, the library might want to change branch B into CCODE B of branch A
11:48 zb       that’s what i suspected but wanted to confirm
11:47 oleonard hm, no... I guess the options aren't that granular.
11:47 zb       oleonard: and they would then float only between A and B, but C would still be independent?
11:47 oleonard zb: B items returned at A won't be transferred, but they'll still say they're at A.
11:46 oleonard zb: You can set up rules in Circulation & Fine rules so that items "float," but that's not quite the same.
11:45 zb       (so if you are logged in at A and return an item belonging to B, koha understands that it doesn’t need to go to transfer and doesn’t need to be returned again at B)
11:42 zb       someone who understands koha’s branches better than me:  suppose library has three branches, A and B in the same building, C more independently somewhere further. can you make koha treat B’s items returned at A as returned to their home branch (C’s items still marked for transfer)
11:16 wahanui  oleonard is happy for ashimema to write the release script

05:36 marcelr  hi #koha
05:25 umair    installalion of koha
05:25 umair    i need help
05:25 umair    hello
04:17 thd      Database based indexing takes much more time but the speed difference may be more in consequence of the Docker container running in RAM.
04:13 thd      MediaWiki Canasta provides an ElasticSearch container as part of their docker-compose configuration.
04:12 thd      Yes, ES probably doubles RAM usage.
04:12 tuxayo   nice
04:12 tuxayo   > Indexing the whole wiki takes about 2 minutes.
04:11 thd      A few seconds for the ES generate step.  Comment out the index update hold in LocalSettings.php.  Run the ES bootstrap step.  Uncomment CirrisSearch for using ES in LocalSettings.php.
04:08 thd      Indexing the whole wiki takes about 2 minutes.
04:07 thd      tcohen then copied the Koha config for ElasticSearch and that worked.
04:07 thd      I had copied a config for RAM constraint which worked for in a minimal Linode but failed for tcohen on the Portainer system.
04:06 tuxayo   Regardless, it's likely to at least double the overall RAM usage.
04:05 thd      ElasticSearch maybe needs not require too much RAM if configured well.
04:04 thd      I have ElasticSearch running in 1GiB of RAM on a 2GiB VPS with MediaWiki Canasta copy of the Koha database.
04:03 tuxayo   *optional?
04:03 tuxayo   And I guess it should be easy to upgrade also? And is ElasticSearch optional (too much RAM for a personal site)
04:03 thd      The production and testing Docker containers have each restarted on me twice.  It could have been tcohen doing something but maybe some little problem.
04:02 tuxayo   thd: I'm interested in hosting a MediaWiki as a personal website, IIUC Canasta is a distribution with a lot of things already set up like the visual editor which take some work otherwise.
04:01 thd      Portainer is intended to make things easy.
04:00 tuxayo   equinox++
04:00 tuxayo   Once the upgrade is done, portainer thing make it easy to migrate to another server is that it?
04:00 thd      Equinox supplied the other server and are happy to continue.
04:00 thd      We may go back to that other server but that server needs an OS upgrade.
03:59 thd      Yes.
03:59 tuxayo   Ah it was on another server
03:59 tuxayo   How did people registered on the wiki until now?
03:59 thd      Now fixing the mail system is a priority.
03:58 thd      tcohen reports that the mail system has been broken on that system a long time such that people do not receive email from jenkins jobs or whatever from that server.
03:58 tuxayo   As expected indeed!
03:58 tuxayo   Unknown error in PHP's mail() function.
03:58 tuxayo   Error sending mail:
03:57 thd      The sitemap for helping Google find things may not be working in the current configuration.
03:57 tuxayo   let's try
03:57 tuxayo   oops ^^"
03:57 tuxayo   > new users cannot register and people cannot change passwords until the mail system is working.
03:56 thd      Many other things to do to improve indexing which is now ElasticSearch etc.
03:55 thd      I think that new users cannot register and people cannot change passwords until the mail system is working.
03:54 thd      tcohen had forgotten to ask the mail system maintainer to fix the mail server for the system on which the wiki is running.
03:53 thd      and thanks tcohen
03:52 tuxayo   mtj++ also if I recall correctly ^^
03:52 tuxayo   thd++ again thanks for the wiki upgrade
03:51 tuxayo   Oh there are captchas from time to time on the wiki now. Quite basic but at least they are libre.
03:48 tuxayo   https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/User:Victor_Grousset_-_tuxayo/Wish_list
03:48 tuxayo   Regardless, I got one of my wish list items done!
03:45 tuxayo   Oh we don't have anymore the page view counters in the wiki. It was nice to see how insanely popular Koha is.
03:44 tuxayo   Need to open a ticket at MediaWiki actually to have ES 7 or OS support backported to LTS
03:44 tuxayo   Here we go https://github.com/CanastaWiki/Canasta/issues/138
03:14 tuxayo   ok so using EOL ES comes from Canasta. They might be reluctant to go to the non-libre version.
03:14 tuxayo   > Elasticsearch 6.8.20
03:14 tuxayo   > The overall contents of Canasta are as follows:
03:11 tuxayo   The wiki is so reactive now!
03:06 tuxayo   There is even the visual editor!!!!!
02:58 wahanui  o/`'`'`'`'`'`'`'`'`'`'`'`
02:58 tuxayo   confetti!
02:58 tuxayo   > MediaWiki offers collapsible classes out of the box for MediaWiki 1.18 and higher
02:57 tuxayo   Some stuff is messy, creating noise or spread out.
02:57 tuxayo   🎉
02:56 tuxayo   Now we will be able to make collapsible sections in the RMaint doc to better handle conditions (if security release, if using the release tool docker image, if Koha version <= 21.05, if releasing master)
02:53 tuxayo   looks so neat!
02:53 tuxayo   thd++
02:53 tuxayo   tcohen++
02:52 tuxayo   thd+
02:52 tuxayo   tcohen: lol, I was about to do the same, I just got the new wiki propagated
