            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 at myacpl.org
          Reporter: cbrannon at cdalibrary.org
        QA Contact: testopia at 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.
