[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] ***SPAM*** RE: Prediction Patterns
Hi Tim, To create more than one volume a year, you need to set it up on the Calendar page in the Pattern Codes wizard. In the Evergreen community serials doc, it describes it like this: 3. Page 2: Calendar 1. To use months, seasons, or dates in your caption, check the box adjacent to Use calendar changes? 2. Identify the point in the year at which the highest level enumeration caption changes. 3. In the Type drop down menu, select the points during the year at which you want the calendar to restart. 4. In the Point drop down menu, select the specific time at which you would like to change the calendar 5. To add another calendar change, click Add Calendar Change. There are no limits on the number of calendar changes that you can add. For example, Time changes volume numbers in January and July. 6. When you have finished the calendar changes, click Next. It looks like this: I don't know what the solution is about differing counts of issues for each volume, though.

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] ***SPAM*** RE: Prediction Patterns
Hi Tim, Mary has it right, and for what it's worth, I tried it out myself, and I made a correct pattern for New England Journal of Medicine, the result of which is this: [2,0,8,1,a,v.,b,no.,u,var,v,r,i,(year),j,(month),k,(day),w,w,x,01,07] That's what shows up in the Pattern code column after using the wizard (it's just a funky way to represent the equivalent of an 853 tag). If you find you can't get the wizard to produce quite that, you can just paste that into the Pattern code box directly without using the wizard. Also, in order for the system to make correct predictions, you must tell it all about the *last* issue you have *before* you want the predictions to start. So if you want the system to start predicting at volume 362, no. 1, in Jan 7, 2010, then your last issue before that is volume 361, no. 27, Dec 31, 2009. That means your manually entered starter issue should have this holding code [4,1,8,1,a,361,b,27,i,2009,j,12,k,31] and a publication date of 12/31/2009 (this is correct for the actual real-world 12/31/2009 issue of NEJM). Hope this helps! -- Lebbeous On 06/03/2011 11:13 AM, Mary Llewellyn wrote: Hi Tim, To create more than one volume a year, you need to set it up on the Calendar page in the Pattern Codes wizard.

[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Hold Policy Configuration
Hello all, We have been trying to add complexity to our hold policy configuration for a couple of weeks now without luck. What we would like to see is the following: Most patron groups are limited to placing a maximum of 15 holds. Staff are unable to place unlimited holds FOR patrons. Some patron groups are exempt from the 15-hold policy (either unlimited or a higher limit). Staff would still be able to place unlimited holds for these groups. We had the 15-hold maximum working for the necessary patron groups in 1.6, though we are now on 2.0.6. How do we add in the staff exceptions? There is a requestor and a user - for the staff exceptions, which one should be set as staff and which one should be set as the patron group? I have tried both and can't seem to create the rule and exception - I either get 100% unlimited holds (patron-placed and staff-placed) or get the 15 hold limit for both staff- and patron-placed holds. Does anyone have similar hold policies working correctly? How do you have them set? Thanks! Jenny Jennifer Turner | PALS, A Program of the Minnesota State Colleges and Universities | 507-389-2000
[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Public Bookbags
We really like the ability for users to maintain public bookbags with RSS feeds. However, in our testing it seems that new books get added to the bottom of the list, and the bottom of the feed. Is there a way to change this behavior so that new items are added to the top of the list, so they'll be picked up by the feed and displayed in feed readers, widgets, etc.? We've also been looking at the different formats for public bookbags. The default view, html-full, is awfully spartan and requires two clicks to get from the list into the full catalog record. We prefer the opac format, but it doesn't display the name of the list. Has anyone edited this so the list name displays, or done anything else to improve the format of public lists? For anyone else just getting started with this, I found this page to be really helpful: http://open-ils.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=evergreen-user:bookbags Thanks! -- Elizabeth Thomsen, Member Services Manager NOBLE: North of Boston Library Exchange 26 Cherry Hill Drive Danvers MA 01923 Blog: http://www.noblenet.org/ethomsen/ E-mail: e...@noblenet.org

so that the final product looks like:
function _holdingsDrawMFHDEntry(entryNum, entryName, entry) {

+ entryName + /tdtd class='rdetail_item' + flatEntry +
/td/tr, rdetail_holdings_tbody_ + entryNum, last);
}
The above change will replace *all* the commas in your holdings with breaks,
which at least for our data didn't work out. I humbly suggest the following
alternative:
function _holdingsDrawMFHDEntry(entryNum, entryName, entry) {
var flatEntry = entry.join('br/');
dojo.place(trtd /tdtd nowrap='nowrap' class='rdetail_desc'
+ entryName + /tdtd class='rdetail_item' + flatEntry +
/td/tr, rdetail_holdings_tbody_ + entryNum, last);
}
or (to continue adding spaces after the real commas):
function _holdingsDrawMFHDEntry(entryNum, entryName, entry) {
var flatEntry = entry.join('br/').replace(/,/g, ', ');
dojo.place(trtd /tdtd nowrap='nowrap' class='rdetail_desc'
+ entryName + /tdtd class='rdetail_item' + flatEntry +
/td/tr, rdetail_holdings_tbody_ + entryNum, last);
}
In both versions just the var flatEntry... line is being changed.
Thanks,
Dan
