https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=18410 Bug ID: 18410 Summary: Koha should use cool URIs Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: master Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: Architecture, internals, and plumbing Assignee: gmcharlt(a)gmail.com Reporter: pablo.bianchi(a)gmail.com QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org Right now Koha use a very volatile URI scheme. If we seek having not ephemeral URIs they should be completely different. Take a look to this article from 1998 of a guy called Tim Berners-Lee: "Cool URIs don't change" https://www.w3.org/Provider/Style/URI A normal Koha URI looks like this: https://catalog.bywatersolutions.com/cgi-bin/koha/opac-detail.pl?biblionumb… This URI is doomed to die in the short term, is not designed thinking in long-term. We have a lot of information about the tools and technical things used to put it there, like "cgi-bin", "koha" and "pl". Is not even consistent about using always en_US (american English): "/cgi-bin/koha/cataloguing/addbooks.pl" (cataloguing != cataloging). As the article say we shouldn't forget about domain name. We could encourage the use of more permanent words like "catalog" for the host part of the FQDN. PS: This may be related to the robust RESTful URI. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

We could add a system preference that allows one to configure which hold statuses to count toward limits. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

[Bug 35693] New: Granular Permissions to Everything

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=35693 Bug ID: 35693 Summary: Granular Permissions to Everything Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: master Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: System Administration Assignee: koha-bugs(a)lists.koha-community.org Reporter: cbrannon(a)cdalibrary.org QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org CC: gmcharlt(a)gmail.com I don't know exactly how to file this. Koha is growing all the time and new features are always being added, but they are often being added with very little permission granularity. Often the permissions are too broad. For example, the newer pages under additional-contents.pl is under the entire umbrella of one permission for the user, and gives them access to ALL pages, ALL news, and ALL HTML customizations. I am hoping that Koha will start thinking more about roles in the library, and allowing us to give specific people access to specific pages, customizations, etc. This goes even further with who can override things. We don't have a lot of control over who can do what specific things. Maybe there is a bug on this topic already? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

This message displays the date the hold was placed on (reserves.reservedate) and the date it will wait until ( reservedate.expirationdate ). Some libraries would like to add the 'Waiting since' date.

For example you might want to link from your subscription to the vendor's page for the serial or from your basket to your order on the vendor's website. For this it would be nice if you could configure additional fields to be links. It would be especially nice if it allowed you to specify a link with a place holder, that is then entered into the field, creating the link. For example your configuration could be: [x] Is a link Link structure: https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id={data} Link text: Bug {data} Then in the form, you'll just enter the number: 32751 And on all pages that display the link, this would create a link to: https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=32751 Referenced Bugs: https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=32751 [Bug 32751] [Omnibus] Extend, improve and standardize additional fields -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

[Bug 32327] New: When replacing bib record via z39.50, only 1 ISBN should be searched and it should be normalized

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=32327 Bug ID: 32327 Summary: When replacing bib record via z39.50, only 1 ISBN should be searched and it should be normalized Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: master Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P5 - low Component: Cataloging Assignee: koha-bugs(a)lists.koha-community.org Reporter: andrewfh(a)dubcolib.org QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org CC: m.de.rooy(a)rijksmuseum.nl The replace via z39.50 function pre-populates the z39.50 search form with values from the existing bib. Koha just pastes in the contents of biblioitems.isbn, which means it very often pre-populates that field with a value that will never find anything. If the existing record has more than 1 ISBN, the prepopulated form will list them all, pipe-separated. This search will always return no results, even when either ISBN returns results successfully on its own. If the existing record contains a parenthetical note about binding, that search will generally fail as well. We should only put the first ISBN from the record into the search form and we should strip out any binding note or other fluff. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
