Jane sent me this - can you confirm:
[16:54] <jwagner> Don't know if you were following my question earlier, about the OpacBrowser syspref & script? [16:54] <nengard> saw it, but didn't see the answers you got [16:55] <jwagner> There's nothing much in the manual on either the syspref or the build_browser_and_cloud.pl script. Consensus seems to be that they're only useful if you want to browse French Dewey headings. Maybe you could check that with BibLibre (I'm assuming they did it?) and update the manual? [16:55] <nengard> k [16:56] <jwagner> Should have checked earlier -- git blame seems to say it was tipaul -- Paul P? in 2007. [16:57] <jwagner> Main thing is to get something in the manual about it being specific for French libraries, so other sites know not to worry about it.
Well, in fact, it's right, the script is dedicated to dewey, and fills some french datas in the database. In fact, I never could find time to improve my idea. We should have in Koha something like : - choose the MARC field you want to create a browser on - define your grouping categories (hierarchical). 'A' = 'history', 'A0' =european history, 'A1' = asian history, 'A0FR' =French history, 'A0GE' = German history, 'A1CH' = chinese history, 'A1JP' = japan history - define the links between MARC field an grouping categories. "MARC field = 'value1' => group to 'A0FR'", "MARC field= value2 => group to 'A1JP'", "MARC field=value3 => group to 'A0FR'" - run the script to build the hierarchy
The build_browser do "almost" that. The limit is that MARC field=676$a dewey and the grouping categories are hardcoded (french dewey)
