Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] user passwords for accounts - default?
Jeniffer, I work at an academic library an we have set up EG to use our student's ID numbers as the default password, though I don't remember right now how it was done by ESI. I remember it being something simple, I am sure somebody else here knows how. We then customized 3 TPAC templates files to make the login form explain to students how to log in. The files are found in this directory, in a typical EG install /openils/var/templates/opac/parts/login/ 1) form.tt2- this file lets you customize most of the login form 2) help.tt2- this file lets you customize the display of information on how patrons can get help with the form: Visit our FAQs section for answers to common questions about how to use your account. 3) password_hint.tt2- this file lets you customize the message concerning what their password is set to: If this is your first time logging in, please enter the last 4 digits of your phone number. Example: 0926 Good luck, Yamil On Tue, Feb 3, 2015 at 11:17 AM, Walz, Jennifer jlw...@asbury.edu wrote: All – Ok. I do appreciate that Evergreen has built in security measures. They are very good.

[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Search URL's for evergreen opac
All - I had asked previously for help with a search form / widget for our web page. THANK YOU for the guidance. Now we need to link our OCLC / Firstsearch interface. They ask for search strings. Is there a standard format for query strings? ISBN Search Results URL: Enter the URL for the screen that displays the results of an ISBN search of your catalog. OCLC will do a search via the FirstSearch interface by ISBN, ISSN, and OCLC number. What are the search strings for Evergreen that will make that work?
