syspref maxItemsinSearchResults ?
While poking around C4/Search.pm I noticed this sys pref being used. But it isn't in the System Preferences. Since it's not there Search.pm ends up with a value of 1 every time. If this sys pref is there it gets used. Will someone please comment on this sys pref. It seems like a nice feature. I'd like to get it in the System Preferences. To do it properly though I'll have to touch the updatedatabase.pl. I don't want to do that unless there's enough interest for the patch to be accepted. ( I've already claimed one db version for a patch that seems to have fallen through the cracks.) Please let me know if you would like this to show in the System Preferences. -- Michael Hafen Systems Analyst and Programmer Washington County School District Utah, USA for Koha checkout http://koha-dev.washk12.org or git://koha-dev.washk12.org/koha

+1 from me I think its a great feature. But perhaps we want 2, 1 for the OPAC and one for the librarian interface (if there isnt one for the OPAC already) Chris

Good idea there. One problem is I don't know if the sub where this feature is implemented knows the difference between OPAC and Staff interfaces. It's in searchResults() in Search.pm. I don't think this sub currently knows the difference. Looking I see getitemtypeimagelocation(), and XSLTParse4Display being pointed at 'opac', and the syspref OpacHighlightedWords being implemented. Yet I see no mention of 'intranet'. My main concern is just being able to set it, so that it can be something other than 1 if I so choose. I guess one could check to see if the calling script's name started with 'opac-', that would be a pretty good indication. With that we could have seperate sys prefs for the two interfaces. -- Michael Hafen Systems Analyst and Programmer Washington County School District Utah, USA for Koha checkout http://koha-dev.washk12.org or git://koha-dev.washk12.org/koha
