Those are a bit more successful... Though also difficult to attract people to .. travel budgets and things 18:43 caroline yeah... people want to take but not necessarily give back 18:42 ashimema And they tended to only come by when they had such a question.. so even if they had answers when they finally came to look it was often weeks or months after a question had been asked and garnered no interest 18:42 caroline A user meetup? 18:41 ashimema The core issue was timing.. people had questions.. rarely did they have answers 18:41 caroline hah! I'll know not to try it then ;) 18:40 ashimema We replaced it with slack 18:40 ashimema Discourse 18:40 ashimema Same problem 18:40 ashimema Tried that 18:40 caroline hm... so maybe a forum type thing would be better? 18:40 ashimema I'm really interested to know if anyone out there does have more luck with such an effort 18:39 ashimema So it always dead ends 18:39 ashimema We see such questions pop up on their slack but we don't know the answer ourselves and there's no one lurking from other customers regularly 18:38 ashimema Same 18:38 ashimema Yup 18:38 caroline I wanted them to be able to ask each other those questions rather than going through me 18:37 caroline For me, I was looking for a way to field questions like "what do other libraries do for {insert very specific situation I have no idea about}" 18:36 caroline I guess it depends on the purpose or what you're trying to achieve with it? 18:35 ashimema But it's really hard to get traction 18:34 ashimema We do all sorts of things 18:34 ashimema It's not easy 18:32 caroline I was looking into discourse for our customers, but I really don't want to become a community moderator 18:31 ashimema We host a slack for our customers but actually getting them to really adopt it is proving really hard.. the forum we hosted didn't work either.. not did the mailing lists we did 18:31 ashimema There's the mailing lists of course.. but they're not quite the same 18:31 caroline well, based on the number of people connected, there are a lot of lurkers 18:31 ashimema It would be good to have some more librarian focused chatter somewhere easily accessible though.. I've often thought that 18:30 ashimema Yeah, I love it here 18:30 ashimema Scary prospect 18:30 caroline this channel here is very interesting. I always have it open on my second screen and read. even if I don't understand everything you learn a lot 18:29 * ashimema might need to think more about what he writes if the whole world was watching 18:28 zimbo_[m] I always looked into it when i was bored at work :`) it was really great ngl i found it so interesting 18:28 ashimema In a way 18:28 ashimema I do love the idea 18:27 ashimema Interesting 18:26 caroline it's a cool idea, kind of like an AMA on new features 18:25 zimbo_[m] no we also have that but my company is a non english one and there were just english comments in it, saying whats new and kinda answering questions 18:24 caroline zimbo_[m], are you supported by a company? Maybe it was a special thing to present new features that your company did? 18:22 ashimema Indeed, that is true 18:22 zimbo_[m] just read the messages 18:22 zimbo_[m] i donΒ΄t remember being able to write in it tho 18:22 caroline Yeah, I'm not sure having it in the staff interface would be such a great idea... we'd be only answering support questions from random library staff 18:22 ashimema Maybe I'm imagining that though 18:22 ashimema IRC still holds some back I think.. though I do think the matrix bridge and link to element from the website has helped a little 18:21 ashimema I'd love a way to get more people involved int he Koha chatter 18:20 zimbo_[m] ughh idk, thanks for the help tho! :) 18:19 ashimema I imagine it wouldn't be crazy hard to embed an element client 18:19 caroline It might have been a local customization of like integrating an IRC client into Koha? 18:19 zimbo_[m] yeah it was pretty cool if it ever was a thing (IΒ΄m not sure anymore lmaooo) 18:18 zimbo_[m] IΒ΄m losing my mind lmao literally no one remembers it but i went on it so many times 18:18 ashimema I like the idea though 18:18 ashimema Not since I've been in Koha since 2009 18:18 ashimema I've never seen that 18:17 caroline although in my defense, my memory is very poor... so I might just not remember it 18:17 caroline it's really not ringing a bell, sorry... :/ 18:17 zimbo_[m] about the new things about koha 18:16 zimbo_[m] no i saw the devs talking on it 18:16 caroline And you would chat with...? other staff members? 18:15 zimbo_[m] yes 18:15 caroline in the staff interface? 18:14 zimbo_[m] no i defintetly saw it like a few months ago 18:14 caroline 2017 18:14 zimbo_[m] since when r u working on koha? 18:12 caroline zimbo_[m], if it ever was, it was before my time 18:10 zimbo_[m] hey, wasnΒ΄t the chat in the koha interface once? 17:34 cait bye! 17:16 huginn 04Bug https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=33255 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, koha-bugs, NEW , Update the manual with information on searching with Elasticsearch 17:16 cait bug 33255 17:05 lucyvh[m] Thnx all 17:02 caroline off to lunch, talk later! 17:01 huginn caroline: The operation succeeded. 17:01 caroline @later tell tuxayo can you run the meeting script of the docs meeting for me? thanks! 17:01 aude_c that's why we're looking at Jitsi Meet, I guess! 17:00 thd Zoom is the road to proprietary doom for a free software project. 17:00 aude_c it's more sound I'm personally interested in.

Several hours fiddling with wiki settings did not fix the problem but Gabriel can adjust both the SMTP server and the wiki. 16:39 thd People should know that at the present time wiki email is broken again which prevents new account creation and password resetting. I can reset passwords on the wiki docker container command line and could presumably create new accounts on the command line. Probably some Postfix security update at tcohen's SMTP server has made things too secure. Gabriel, his systems administration person will fix it sometime soon we hope. Running the wiki i 16:39 caroline not sure what this topic is compared to the previous one... 16:39 caroline #topic What's been done so far 16:39 aude_c good point!

And now AndrewFH filed bug 33246 15:00 cait not sure if we have that issue there yet 15:00 cait caroline: my thinking was that it could also work when you don't have an interface language - sending mails maybe? 14:41 marcelr is it related to permissions on that file or specific log4perl configuration ? 14:41 marcelr [2023/03/16 14:38:31] [ERROR] GET /api/v1/patrons/51: unhandled exception (Mojo::Exception)<<Died at /usr/share/koha/Koha/REST/V1/Patrons.pm line 79.>> 14:41 marcelr tcohen: if I add a die in REST/V1/Patrons::get, I see the following in my plack-api-error.log: 14:37 caroline cait, thanks! I like the idea of the first language being the default 14:35 cait you can reorder them because there is already some kind of fallback behavikour 14:35 cait i think interface language shoudl work for us, but another option could be to use the first in language list as the default 14:35 cait caroline: ^ 14:35 cait hm commented on the bug 14:34 marcelr ok i will have a look 14:33 tcohen and that goes nowhere 14:33 tcohen now we call $c->log->error ... 14:33 tcohen we used to warn "$exception" somehow 14:33 marcelr what do you mean ? 14:32 tcohen marcelr: we can no longer get useful error informaiton on the API, can you check what's going on? 14:32 marcelr yeah thats odd 14:31 caroline For example, the slip will be in French, but the accountype will print in english 14:30 marcelr ok 14:30 caroline but the "includes" are not translated 14:30 marcelr their notices could be vernacular anyway (as recorded in default) 14:29 caroline yes that's what I did, but I think it is unnecessary for installations with just one non-english language 14:29 marcelr just what you want.. 14:29 marcelr yes but you could enable Translate 14:29 caroline marcelr, well, in that case, it's always english 14:28 marcelr default (notice) language 14:28 marcelr i would expect if translate is off, always use default language ? 14:01 huginn 04Bug https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=33237 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, koha-bugs, NEW , If TranslateNotices is off, use the interface language includes in slips 14:01 caroline cait, if you have time can you give your opinion on bug 33237 ? I think it's a bug, but I wanted the opinion of someone else who uses Koha in another language 13:57 cait we are alwys building our own 13:57 cait yes please 13:57 * mtj will update wiki page later today 13:56 mtj we need to update the wiki page, as there are now some extra steps with installing yarn/nodejs/gulp packages 13:53 cait coworker told me that the last 2 times he had trouble withmissing dependencies, but maybe this was fixed already 13:53 mtj hi cait, good to hear about packages 13:35 ashimema the developments that progress quickest are those that are paid for 13:35 ashimema my point is.. we all have to feed our families and can't produce all features and all code for free 13:34 ashimema you can of course search for an existing bug, submit a new bug and even submit code against a bug yourselves 13:34 ashimema sponsor = paying for it 13:34 TriveniChandriki[m] ashimema: Any charge on this sir 13:33 ashimema cait is a girl Triveni π 13:33 TriveniChandriki[m] Ok sir 13:33 ashimema you could sponsor development of it π 13:33 cait Koha can't do that out of th box yet 13:32 TriveniChandriki[m] 5+10+15 13:32 ashimema "5 + 5 + 5" or "5 + 10 + 15" Triveni Chandriki 13:29 cait which one? 13:29 TriveniChandriki[m] Yes sir 13:21 cait additional 10 and additional 15 or +5 each week? 13:21 TriveniChandriki[m] <cait> "what do you mean by increment?" <- 1 week 5 rupees and 2 week 10 rupees and 3 week 15 rupees need fine in koha 13:21 ashimema excellent 13:20 cait mtj, ashimema: no problems building 22.11.03 packages on our end 13:18 ashimema thanks 13:18 cait https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Koha_Versioning#LTS_Releases 13:17 cait link to the meeting and link to the docs 13:17 cait ah yep, i put the link to the decision on the top of that page 13:16 cait no, but seriously, I documented it so it won't get lost - I'll quickly find it for you 13:16 ashimema https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/LTS_workflow_proposal 13:16 cait look at koha versioning in the wiki ;) 13:16 ashimema which LTS method did we pick in the end Cait? 13:15 cait Koha does add x to your fine every y days until ... if you configure it 13:15 cait what do you mean by increment? 13:11 TriveniChandriki[m] Can we do increment fine in koha. Without development 12:56 marcelr kidclamp++ 12:41 magnuse \o 12:31 marcelr o/ 10:21 huginn marcelr: The operation succeeded. 10:21 marcelr @later tell khall please test 33242 10:06 ashimema indeed 10:06 ashimema just looking at your patch π 10:06 marcelr the use case of kyle is quite different 10:06 marcelr they have their own advantages 10:06 ashimema π 10:05 marcelr ashimema: i think we can use both approaches 08:27 huginn ashimema: The operation succeeded. 08:27 ashimema @later tell oleonard any chance you could take a look at my comment on bug 33190 ? 08:05 marcelr more attention is always good :) 08:05 ashimema I need to start paying more attention.. not used to having an awesome team supporting me here and munching through the signoffs π 08:04 marcelr want to calculate a date three weeks further from issue date 08:04 ashimema doh.. I've just been QAing another bug where one of my team did the SO! 08:04 ashimema part of my can't think of a reason you'd need it.. haha 08:04 ashimema part of me is surprised the requirement hasn't come up before in my memory 08:04 ashimema it's a nice idea.. though I'm somewhat intrigued by the use case. 08:03 marcelr thx 08:03 ashimema indeed 08:03 marcelr will have a try 08:03 marcelr yes it looks nicer but seems to be more code 08:03 ashimema but it could be a pain adding a bunch of 'add_' and 'subtract_' options to the filter method 08:03 ashimema or something along those lines 08:02 ashimema `[% borrower.dateexpiry | $KohaDates add_days => 1 %]` 08:02 ashimema me was thinking 08:02 ashimema cool 08:02 ashimema oh.. interesting 08:02 ashimema maybe? 08:01 marcelr when i add a small dt sub 08:01 marcelr ah this works: [% KohaDates.dt(borrower.dateexpiry).add( years => 2 ) | $KohaDates %] 08:01 ashimema you could add 'add', 'subtract' to what it accepts 08:01 ashimema we accept as_due_date 08:00 ashimema so yeah.. I think you're right.. perhaps add a parameter to the KohaDates filter 08:00 marcelr Template's use date is not enough 07:59 marcelr and it seems not to be there yet 07:59 marcelr so i need the dt conv 07:59 ashimema I see 07:59 ashimema ah, so dateexpired isn't expanded 07:59 marcelr and now i want to do it on a regular db field 07:59 marcelr yes it works but i need to pass a dt object 07:59 ashimema I would think [% testdate.add( days => 1 ) | $KohaDates %] woudl work 07:59 marcelr i would like to do e.g. borrower.dateexpiry.add( days => 1 ) 07:58 ashimema the KohaDate filter already accepts both a string and a dt object (dt_from_string is used, and that accepts both) 07:57 ashimema I'm confused 07:57 ashimema how is the field getting passed to the template? 07:56 alex_ Bonjour 07:55 marcelr probably need a convert to dt object in KohaTemplatePlugin 07:53 ashimema good question.. I have no idea off the top of my head 07:53 ashimema er... 07:49 marcelr i am looking for the easiest way to add to a date in a tt file; when I pass a dt object I can just do [% testdate.add( days => 1) %] but how do I handle a date field ? 07:41 marcelr hi ashimema 07:36 ashimema Morning 06:36 marcelr hi #koha
