https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=19704 Bug ID: 19704 Summary: OPACs most popular feature is displaying links to items set to be hidden in the opachiddenitems syspref which gives 404 errors when links are clicked Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: 17.05 Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: OPAC Assignee: oleonard(a)myacpl.org Reporter: alexbuckley(a)catalyst.net.nz QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org When a library item has multiple bibliographic records and associated items with differing item types (e.g. fiction and express fiction and non-fiction) the Most popular feature is displaying links to items which are set to be hidden in the opachiddenitems syspref. When the user clicks on the link to these items a 404 error is displayed to the user. Therefore the most popular feature is incorrectly displaying links to hidden items. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

This module is not compatible with version 4.03 which is in Ubuntu Xenial and Debian Stretch. You get the error : Can't call method "start_element" on an undefined value at /usr/share/perl5/HTTP/OAI/Response.pm line 114 This is because the method HTTP::OAI::Response::generate() has changed, it needs an argument $driver. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

[Bug 27267] New: Create more efficient daemon for indexing Zebra

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=27267 Bug ID: 27267 Summary: Create more efficient daemon for indexing Zebra Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: master Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: Searching - Zebra Assignee: koha-bugs(a)lists.koha-community.org Reporter: dcook(a)prosentient.com.au At the moment, each instance of Koha on a server gets its own rebuild_zebra.pl daemon which uses approximately 170MB of RAM when idling. While this is not a huge amount on its own, it does not scale well when you start adding many Koha instances on the server. It would be very possible to have 10GB of RAM taken up on a server by idle rebuild_zebra.pl processes alone. In 2018, I wrote a custom Koha indexer daemon (on a non-Debian based OS) which only uses 12MB of RAM. It gets a list of Koha instances, queries the zebraqueue table in those instances, and then forks child processes to run rebuild_zebra.pl (in non-daemon mode) for Koha instances that need it. It also uses advisory file locking, so that only 1 rebuild_zebra.pl process will run per instance at any given time. I would need to refactor the daemon to run using the Debian Koha tooling, but I think that this would be a useful addition to Koha, especially for vendors and other large organisations running multiple Koha instances. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

It seems silly to me to have all this code for handling these different scenarios. We should just harmonize the callers. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

This causes frequent confusion among new users. It would be nice to offer mappings between detected branches / item types and the branches and item types already in the system. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

[Bug 17498] New: Expose system preference values to JavaScript in the OPAC

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=17498 Bug ID: 17498 Summary: Expose system preference values to JavaScript in the OPAC Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: master Hardware: All OS: All Status: ASSIGNED Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: OPAC Assignee: oleonard(a)myacpl.org Reporter: oleonard(a)myacpl.org QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org We process a lot of JavaScript in the OPAC templates, usually because there are template variable which need to be processed. Some of these variable, like system preferences, are a global setting which is common to many pages in the OPAC. I propose that these settings be defined in embedded JavaScript so that the scripts themselves can be moved to a separate file. In my proposal, opac-bottom.inc will contain a section like this: <script type="text/javascript"> if (typeof KOHA == "undefined" || !KOHA) { var KOHA = {}; } KOHA.paths = { "interface_theme":"[% interface %]/[% theme %]" } KOHA.preferences = { "BakerTaylorEnabled" : [% IF ( Koha.Preference( 'BakerTaylorEnabled' ) == 1 ) %]1[% ELSE %]0[% END %], ...and then an separate JS file will use those variables to conditionally load resources: if( KOHA.preferences.Coce && KOHA.preferences.CoceProviders ){ KOHA.externalResources.push( KOHA.paths.interface_theme + "/js/coce.js" ); var NO_COCE_JACKET = _("No cover image available"); } if( KOHA.externalResources.length > 0 ){ Modernizr.load({ load: KOHA.externalResources }); } I'd appreciate comments anyone might have on this system. My goal, if this works well, is to then add a JavaScript concatenation/minification task for OPAC js assets. Moving as much JS as possible out of the templates will help us take advantage of that minification. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

Currently to tell the patron without them logging into the OPAC or coming into the library we have to send the e-mail manually.

This whitelist would be managed by some kind of administrator*. This feature coupled with Bug 24632 would allow Koha users to only installed certain authentic plugins from trusted providers. (*I've been thinking that a superlibrarian really should be able to configure all aspects of Koha. However, from a vendor perspective, there are quality of service and security risks that comes with that. So perhaps the administrator level should be configurable. Defaulting to superlibrarian but optionally being switched to backend sysadmin for vendors, so that they can have ultimate say, when running on their own hardware.) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
