Dear community!

Since we commissioned the work to create the system preference 
OPACMySummaryHTML I feel that it might be appropriate to share some knowledge 
of the details. This preference lets you add a column of custom HTML to "My 
summary" that can be used to for example share the OPAC-page for each book on 
Facebook. Four variables are available for use: {AUTHOR}, {TITLE}, {ISBN} and 
{BIBLIONUMBER} and Koha replaces these with the proper value when rendering the 
page. The following code creates a simple text-link to share on Facebook.

<a 
href="http://www.facebook.com/share.php?u=http://www.YOUR-KOHA-OPAC-HERE.com/cgi-bin/koha/opac-detail.pl?biblionumber={BIBLIONUMBER}";>Share
 on Facebook</a>

You'd need to insert your own OPAC url of course, but otherwise it should be 
fine to use.
Should you wonder how to activate this function then this is what you need to 
do:

1) Log in to the staff interface and click "System preferences". You may need 
help from an administrator if you don't have access to the system preferences.

2) Search the preferences for "mysummaryhtml" and click the link "Click to 
edit". It can also be found in the "Appearance"-section of the OPAC-tab in the 
preferences.

3) Paste the code above, change the URL to the one you use for your OPAC and 
save.

There are of course many potential uses so feel free to share examples should 
you do something fun with it :) The function is included in Koha from version 
3.4 and I'd like to give credit to Magnus Enger of Libriotech in Norway for 
doing the actual development.

Thank you for the attention!
