Hi Jesse,
I believe there are two steps you need to take:
(1) Set the physical_loc environment variable in the Apache config for
each of your subdomains, using a directive like this:
SetEnv physical_loc 4
(2) In your library settings, set "Org Unit Hiding Depth" to the
appropriate value for each library. Here's the description for that
setting:
This will hide certain org units in the public OPAC if the Physical
Location (url param "physical_loc") for the OPAC inherits this setting.
This setting specifies an org unit depth, that together with the OPAC
Physical Location determines which section of the Org Hierarchy should
be visible in the OPAC. For example, a stock Evergreen installation
will have a 3-tier hierarchy (Consortium/System/Branch), where System
has a depth of 1 and Branch has a depth of 2. If this setting contains
a depth of 1 in such an installation, then every library in the System
in which the Physical Location belongs will be visible, and everything
else will be hidden. A depth of 0 will effectively make every org
visible. The embedded OPAC in the staff client ignores this setting.
Hope that helps!
Jeff

Hello Everyone,
I was wondering if there are any configurations to restrict searches to
a single library in a consortium setup? We have four libraries in our
Evergreen system, all setup for access in sub-domains
(Burlington.skagitcat.org, laconner.skagitcat.org etc…). Occasionally
the search drop down gets switched/changed to search all the libraries
instead of the local library, which causes some confusion for patrons
looking for a book in our library when they don’t realize the search
result is showing them a book in a different library. There any
configuration to eliminate the other options from the drop down box in
the web OPAC? Screenshot for reference attached, we would like to keep
the searches on the Burlington Public Library, but sometimes the box
gets set to Skagit Evergreen Libraries.
Thanks in advance
