Hi all,
I agree with Katrin that we should have the possibility to localize the
HTML system preferences.

Hi all,
I am sorry, but there is a big problem with that solution as suggested.
The search options won't be translatable and only available in one
language at a time.
I think what we really need is a way to have all the HTML system
preferences in an editor
like we have for news that supports content for multiple languages.

Subject: Re: [Koha-devel] Default search options in the OPAC
I agree, this seems like a good option. The only thing I could imagine
that would make it better would be to add a new section under
administration to define these choices so we don't require librarians to
be messing around with html. Perhaps I'm trying to make it overly
complicated though ; )

We've now got two patches pending which seek to add more options to
the default OPAC search, the masthead search bar which currently
includes options for Library catalog, title, author, subject, ISBN,
series, and call number:
Add "Phrase" Searching to OPAC Search
http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=8778
Add accesssion [barcode] number to the drop down list in OPAC Search
http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=8302
I'll say right out that I'm opposed to these changes, but I want to
bring it up here on the list so we can discuss.
I agree that the simple search should be simple. But we could probably
spend a lot of time arguing about how simple is simple enough.
Seems to me that it would be better to find a way to make this easily
configurable. I'd like to suggest a simple solution:
In the template, we could have
<select id="masthead_search" class="left" name="idx"> [%
OPACSearchOptions %] </select>
Then we could have a syspref called OPACSearchOptions (or something),
with this initial content:
<option value="">Library catalog</option> <option
value="ti">Title</option> <option value="au">Author</option> <option
value="su">Subject</option> <option value="nb">ISBN</option> <option
value="se">Series</option> <option value="callnum">Call
number</option>
This would keep current behaviour, but make it easy to add or remove
or re-arrange the <option> elements. And we could explain in the docs
or on the wiki how the "value"s here relate to indexes defined in more
or less obscure config files.
Yes, it would require fiddling with HTML and Zebra (or Solr) indexes
to change it. No, it would not be GUI and pretty. But it would be so
simple, even I could submit a patch for it.
Thoughts?
Best regards,
Magnus
