Hi all, we've recently run into issues on the stable branches with DB upgrades failing. Jonathan put together a proposal that will help us catch those beforehand, as mentioned on [bug 34683]( https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=34683) Please take a look ASAP and help us move it. -- Tomás Cohen Arazi Theke Solutions (https://theke.io) ✆ +54 9351 3513384 GPG: B2F3C15F

KTD testers needed
by Tomas Cohen Arazi 01 Sep '23

01 Sep '23

Hi all, I've been working on making things easier on ARM64 processors (M1, M2, and so on) on top of the great work from Mason. Now we need help testing a branch [1]. I specially need non-ARM testers, so we are sure nothing gets broken with the change. To test: 1. On your KTD clone do: $ git remote add theke https://gitlab.com/thekesolutions/koha-tools/koha-testing-docker.git $ git checkout theke/issue_396 -b issue_396 2. Then a. (x86_64 users) do your usual stuff, try playing with --es7, --os1, etc b. (arm64 users) try different option switches. Use docker ps to check which images have been picked, etc 3. Comment on the issue [2] CAVEATS: I did it in a way that wouldn't affect our test suite. Might deserve some refactoring once we settle things.

plugins on KohaDevboxes
by Philippe Blouin 31 Aug '23

31 Aug '23

Hi! Any suggestion onto why our plugin doesn't seem to work on (bywater's) Devboxes while being perfectly fine in 22,23 or master local installs ? The UI of the config is all damaged, like the dropbox not being clickable. Below first is the devbox version, versus our installations right after. Any hint would be greatly appreciated. Thanks -- Philippe Blouin, Directeur de la technologie Tél. : (833) 465-4276, poste 230 philippe.blouin(a)inLibro.com inLibro | pour esprit libre | www.inLibro.com <http://www.inLibro.com>

Re: [Koha-devel] [Koha] Where would I put the OpenLibrary ID in the MARC record

My testing seems to indicate that the patch does indeed work and retrieves covers from OpenLib even when there isn't an ISBN (but there is an OLID in MARC field 024). I've made a couple of notes in a comment to the bug. > Note that I am Joubu but not the original author of the OpenLibrary > cover retrieval code. My apologies. I didn't delve deeply enough into the code history and jumped to conclusions. Mea culpa Nigel

Question about an Acquisitions enhancement proposal
by Alex Buckley 29 Aug '23

29 Aug '23

Hi Koha community, I really enjoyed meeting many of you at KohaCon in Finland for the first-time in person!! I have a question. We have a partner library who is interested in sponsoring an enhancement so they can change the quantity in order lines of open baskets. Currently, if you click the 'Modify' link for an order line in an open basket and change the value in the Quantity text input a JavaScript popup appears telling you "You can't add a new item, please create a new order line" - see attached screenshot. Looking at the code I can see that JavaScript popup is coming from https://github.com/Koha-Community/Koha/blob/1403fd847a66432efda2c8724f61bcc… Before we go any further with starting work on making a bug report and writing this enhancement I wanted to check a few things with the community to make sure we start on the right track: Q1) Is adding the ability to change the quantity of order lines in open baskets a bad idea? Q2) Is there anything we should keep in mind? Q3) Do you have any suggestions of how to approach writing this enhancement? Any feedback, and suggestions, would be much appreciated. Kind regards, Alex

Hi all, Does anyone but Chris Cormack have admin access to Bugzilla? I've been locked out (due to posting too many links), and it would be great to get access back. I was hoping to do some work on Bugzilla today.
