https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=38858 Bug ID: 38858 Summary: Add Featured Collections to Koha OPAC Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: 24.05 Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: OPAC Assignee: oleonard@myacpl.org Reporter: esther.melander@bywatersolutions.com QA Contact: testopia@bugs.koha-community.org Featured collections can currently be added to the Koha OPAC by installing the CoverFlow Plugin. I think this should become a native feature for the Koha OPAC with some expanded functionality. Some Examples: 1. A patron account saves search histories. These function in some ways like a saved search (also addressed in Bug 36404). These saved search histories are also a link. That link could be used in a button that appears on the OPAC home page. Perhaps something similar to a Browse Category in Aspen Discovery. While it is possible to code something like this now, a management tool may be useful in the staff interface, perhaps in Tools and called Featured Collections. This tool could allow the user to turn on or off Featured Collection, schedule it, etc. 2. Expand Lists to include functionality of displaying on the OPAC home page as a featured collection. Lists could be added in a Featured Collections tool but would allow the user to create curated lists. The Featured Collections could appear on the OPAC home page as buttons. So the user would need the ability to name the collection. There could be discussions on the number of buttons that can appear, whether they should rotate, etc. The CoverFlow Plugin would still be available if the library would like a rotating carousel of book covers. I think there are a lot of possibilities to adding this to Koha. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
