Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Hours of library open / close

We have a number of libraries that have unusual operating hour patterns that the current system doesn't accommodate. Some have seasonal differences, some are open every other Saturday, some are on a skeleton crew so are open some days in two shifts (4 hours in the morning, for hours in the

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Web Client Design - Fixed Page Elements?

What if, when viewed at smaller than a certain size, it not only shrank down the menu but also simplified it so that it looked more like a narrow bar on an app? Just high enough to be usable on small touch-screen tablets or notepads with Home and Back buttons (or Cancel and Save buttons on

Hi Kathy, I'm unable to open your Google link (permission error), but I got a peek at Bill's work a month or so ago and it looked great and it responded very quickly. I know he's made some changes since I saw it last, though, so my comments are based on memory. 1) In my experience, very few

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Hold Slip: Source of Notify By

Hi Scott, The notify-by options for each hold placed are stored in that hold's individual record (not in the patron's record). By default, they are set to the patron's selected hold notification preferences at the time the hold is placed, but those options can be changed either at the time

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Expiration of Holds Shelf Holds

Some of our libraries had issues with people accidentally clicking the "Clear Holds Shelf" option on the Circulation drop-down menu, so we disabled that option. Now, when they want to clear the holds shelf, they take one of the two approaches that Kathy mentioned. Terran McCanna PINES

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] fancy HTML/CSS receipt lost in translation

sh the background color printing in Evergreen: When setting up the printer, select "Page Settings" and check the "Print Background (colors & images)" checkbox. That should do it. It isn't a printer option so much as a "what application is printing" option. Quoting

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] fancy HTML/CSS receipt lost in translation

Yes - it's creating an HTML/CSS page to print, and CSS backgrounds don't print by default. Apparently some printers have the option to force backgrounds to print, but I don't see that option on the printers I have access to. There are some various CSS tricks out there for trying to force

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Evergreen on a Bookmobile

I don't think any of our libraries are currently trying to run the staff client live on their bookmobiles - they typically use the standalone client for circulation and then process the offline transactions when they get back to their base. We have not yet tested how well the web client will
