was up and running...

i've never gone back and analyzed what went wrong with the shared hosting, =
but i basically faced one problem after another, so that eventually, i just=
 gave up. But, i think, in theory, it should be possible to do with some ch=
anges to the install process.

krishnan

Hello Yan,

Any luck so far? I, too, am planning to move my Koha to the commercial =20
hosting service where our web site is already located and I am interested =

Hi there,
I want to gather opinions about a possible small change in the way the
Amazon covers are handled in the opac on the detailed view of a
record.
Currently we show the Amazon cover and link back to the product's page
on Amazon's web site from the cover itself. Some librarians I talk to
are uncomfortable with the idea that their public library will show a
link to a (monopolistic (online-only (us-owned
(insert-yr-own-fears-here)))) bookseller in such a prominent way :
using the whole cover image as a link.
At least some of them would be assuaged, I think, by a more discreet
link between their opac and Amazon : removing the link from the image
itself and providing it through a tiny text just below the image,
saying "source : Amazon", might be a solution. See example at
http://www.libfly.com/je-suis-une-legende-livre-25918.html
What do you think?
Nicolas
