[Bug 23568] New: Detect OPAC location by IP address
https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=23568 Bug ID: 23568 Summary: Detect OPAC location by IP address Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: unspecified Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: OPAC Assignee: oleonard@myacpl.org Reporter: cbrannon@cdalibrary.org QA Contact: testopia@bugs.koha-community.org Suppose the OPAC could determine the library location it is at based on IP address. I suggest this because I assume that on preferences like HighlightOwnItemsOnOPAC, which gives a URL branch option in the settings, only works if you have an OPAC setup for each branch. Unless I am mistaken and there is already a way to specify individual branches in the OPAC url without having to setup an instance for each. In my scenario, we could set an IP address for each library in the branch settings, and then, if that ip address is detected by the OPAC, a setting like this could highlight the appropriate results. This could also be a useful function for things like self check, down the road. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

I believe it only works for logged-in users, using their home branch. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

That is correct. What is the goal here? To allow highlighting the own holdings when the OPAC stations in the library are used? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

There is an option in the setting to work via URL branch. Whether it works or not, I do not know, as we only have one OPAC URL. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

Pretty much. To make this preference work in libraries, particularly that those that don't have distinctive URLs for each branch. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
