[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] TPAC 2.3 Advanced Search Filters--any thoughts?

[Soulliere, Robert]

Tony,

The labels for the lists can be changed from the staff client.

1. Navigate to Admin -> Server Administration -> Marc Coded Value Maps
2. Select the attribute from the "Record Attribute Type" drop-down. (e.g. 'Audn' for Audience.)
3. For each item in the list you can add a custom search label or toggle whether they display in the OPAC, etc.

Subject: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] TPAC 2.3 Advanced Search Filters--any thoughts?

Hi all,

Working with some of our libraries on the 2.3 TPAC this afternoon, they wanted to change some of the labels included in the lists under "Literary Form", "Audience", and "Item Type".

However, I'm not quite sure where to go to do that.  So far, I've searched the following:

--http://www.open-ils.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=dev:opac:template-toolkit#the_code
--http://docs.evergreen-ils.org/2.3/_tpac_url.html
--http://template-toolkit.org/docs/index.html

Right now, I'm digging into config.tt2, where is mentions the following:


Define the advanced search limiters and labels.
# adv_label is the (translated) label for the limiter
# adv_attr is an array of possible limiters, the first one that has any
#   values will be used
# adv_filter is the same as adv_attr, but for search filter groups
# adv_break will end the current row. If specified with a label/attr it
#   will do so *after* that limiter.
# adv_special will drop in a special entry:
#   lib_selector will put the search library box (with limit to available)
#   pub_year will put the publication year box
#   sort_selector will put the sort results selector

search.adv_config = [
    {adv_label => l("Item Type"), adv_attr => ["mattype", "item_type"]},
    {adv_label => l("Item Form"), adv_attr => "item_form"},
    {adv_label => l("Language"),  adv_attr => "item_lang"},

But I'm not seeing anything for the Search Filters option...would that be the adv_filter?  Should I just enter some strings similar to the search.adv_config lines above?

If you have any links or information on how to do this, I would be eternally grateful.....

Tony
