Suggestion requested regarding sending SMS
by Indranil Das Gupta 21 Apr '15

21 Apr '15

Hi all, I would like to know if the recommended way to handle the SMSSendUsername / SMSSendPassword in SMS.pm is by adding them as local prefs? # Create a sender my $sender = SMS::Send->new( $driver, _login => C4::Context->preference('SMSSendUsername'), _password => C4::Context->preference('SMSSendPassword'), ); thanks -- Indranil Das Gupta Phone : +91-98300-20971 Blog : http://indradg.randomink.org/blog IRC : indradg on irc://irc.freenode.net Twitter : indradg -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-==-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Please exchange editable Office documents only in ODF Format.

Delete item "confirm" only works in Firefox
by David Cook 21 Apr '15

21 Apr '15

Hey folks: I just noticed that the confirm box for deleting items only functions properly in Firefox. I opened up a bug with some more details: http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=14032 Basically, Chrome and IE don't appear to honour the "return false" for preventing the link click. I've tried creating a jQuery click handler but e.preventDefault() doesn't seem to work in IE. even though it works fine in IE on other sites. Not really sure what's up, but don't have more time to devote to this issue at the moment. Hoping that there might be some Javascript experts out there who have better luck than me with this one.

plack in production
by Gaetan Boisson 20 Apr '15

20 Apr '15

Hello all, we have been talking about plack quite a lot in the last hackfest, and i must say i am not that comfortable with the technical aspects and hardly understand what the issues are, but... I tried it with the help of our sysops a couple days ago, and i must say koha does feel *really* fast with plack enabled. If you havent yet, you should try. It really made me realize why this should be a priority for us to get it to work. Now, it turns out it really doesn't work for us. It keeps crashing every few minutes. We haven't had time to investigate any further, but before pouring more time in this i wanted to know whether anyone was using it seriously (including for the staff interface), and what your conclusions are. Importantly, i would also like to know more about the recommended configuration, and the areas we should have a close look at in our set up. Thanks for your advice! -- Gaetan Boisson Chef de projet bibliothécaire BibLibre 06 52 42 51 29 108 avenue Breteuil 13006 Marseille gaetan.boisson(a)biblibre.com

Fwd: [Bug 8753] Add forgot password link to OPAC
by Philippe Blouin 17 Apr '15

17 Apr '15

I think the question below could be better (and faster) answered by the community at large. Anyone experienced with the sandboxes that could answer this first-time tester? Thanks, Philippe -------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [Bug 8753] Add forgot password link to OPAC Date: Mon, 13 Apr 2015 16:59:43 +0000 From: bugzilla-daemon(a)bugs.koha-community.org To: philippe.blouin(a)inlibro.com Arturo <mailto:library@sll.texas.gov> changed bug 8753 <http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=8753> What Removed Added CC library(a)sll.texas.gov *Comment # 80 <http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=8753#c80> on bug 8753 <http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=8753> from Arturo <mailto:library@sll.texas.gov> * Hi, all. My library recently switched to Koha, and this is my first attempt at testing a patch, but I am not sure if I am doing this correctly or if I've truly run into an issue. I followed the instructions athttp://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Sandboxes to test this patch,bug 8753 <show_bug.cgi?id=8753>. I set up Sandbox 6 from BibLibre succesfully, logged in correctly, and did not see any error messages in the 'news' area, so it seems the patch was applied successfully. Before I could follow the test plan listed in this thread, I randomly selected a patron (I chose Colin Campbell), set a password for him, and set his e-mail address to my e-mail address so that I'd receive the e-mail notifications. Then I followed the test plan. Everything seemed OK except that I never received the e-mail to reset the pw. I then remembered that by default, Koha installations do not have e-mail enabled. Could that be the reason? Or would it be safe to assume that e-mail is enabled in the BibLibre sandboxes? I couldn't find that information anywhere. Thanks for any assistance anyonce can provide! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ You are receiving this mail because: * You are the assignee for the bug. * You are on the CC list for the bug.

Bug 8438 Discussion: Asking opinions
by Marcel de Rooy 17 Apr '15

17 Apr '15

Hi all, Coudl you please give your opinion in the discussion on bug 8438. http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=8438 This bug is quite old already. Main point is: Can we change behavior in claiming serials for other branches like this? Currently, you are allowed. This patch only allows it with superserials permission. So if you do not have that, the new version could surprise you :) Should we choose a slightly more comfortable road to achieve the same goal? Any ideas about that? I parked it into FQA in the hope that someone convinces me that it should not be there.. Thanks, Marcel

Custom cataloguing plugins? Anyone?
by Tomas Cohen Arazi 16 Apr '15

16 Apr '15

I'm pushing bug 10480, which cleans and makes testable the plugins code. I encourage all of you that have custom plugins deployed to test them on top of master ASAP. This change is fully backwards-compatible, but if we find issues earlier we can fix them before the release. Don't tell we didn't warn you :-D -- Tomás Cohen Arazi Prosecretaría de Informática Universidad Nacional de Córdoba ✆ +54 351 5353750 ext 13168 GPG: B76C 6E7C 2D80 551A C765 E225 0A27 2EA1 B2F3 C15F

by Tajoli Zeno 16 Apr '15

16 Apr '15

Hi to all, I report the developing of a metasearch in Koha Opac. a)The path that I try on Marsiglia meeting, to reuse the z39.50 interface of intranet, was a dead end. It is too slow, It download the records, insert them ino resevoir then display. b)Now I try to use pazpar2 with less modificaton on Koha as possible. c)So I create a new opac template and opac cgi d)I create a syspref to display a link to metasearch in opac header e)I doing also pazpar setup on command line. In fact it in not very difficult using this example: https://github.com/ssp/pazpar2-all f)You nee to insert a specific config in koha-httpd.conf Now I'm working on opac template and I have same problems with js (pazpar2 is called by ajax). I plan to release code with a big wiki page on installation for Koha 3.22 Bye Zeno Tajoli -- Dr. Zeno Tajoli Servizi Innovativi -- Automazione Biblioteche z.tajoli(a)cineca.it fax +39 02 2135520 CINECA - Sede operativa di Segrate

Samhati Soor facebook post
by Waylon Robertson 16 Apr '15

16 Apr '15

damn, seems someone has hacked Samhati Soor's facebook or Instagram.... (application used to post is instagram?), posted rather pornographic content, with a "rape video" link, which leads to a phishing site of facebook. A bad one. Still.... Can anything be done other than kicking Samhati Soor out? does anyone actually know her? Waylon
