[Koha-devel] Hiding...

[Mark Tompsett]

Greetings,

There are different “hiding” actions.
Let’s see if I remember them all.
1) 942$n
        This is at the biblio-level.
2) System preference: OpacHiddenItems
        This can be used to hide on any field at an item-level.
3)  Home › Administration › MARC frameworks › {name} framework structure › 
Tag {tag number} subfield structure › Edit subfields constraints
        This is used to affect visibility: OPAC, Intranet, Editor, 
Collapsed, Flagged?

Bug 11592 refers to method 3.

I’m not sure this is applicable in this hiding case. It would likely be 
valid in case (1) and perhaps case (2).

This is not related to search results. It is about opac details in normal, 
marc, and isbd views.


Hopefully this clarifies. And if I’m wrong, someone can explain why (e.g. 
XSLT does apply, because ...).
