[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] About Evergreen OPAC for Mobile Devices

Hi Kathy, folks,

Thanks much for the note!

------------------

For the most part, the general TPAC looks pretty decent when viewed on a mobile device, but we're noticing that when logging in to check your personal account, the display is a little wide-the user has to scroll to the right to view the entire box.

Also, once logged in, and this is the biggest issue we've seen, the lists of items that are checked out are all, for the lack of a better term, "all squashed together"....  :) :) when you get below a certain pixel count on the screen, say around 615px.

I'm not sure if this list accepts attachments, but I've attached a simulation of what it looks like.  Maybe this is just us?  I just wasn't sure what approach other folks were working on and if anyone had encountered this before....

Thanks again for any thoughts as you have time....I can open a bug if everyone thinks this might be the way to go....

--Tony

Hi Tony,

There is an existing bug with the My Lists area of the catalog - https://bugs.launchpad.net/evergreen/+bug/1353509.

What are the specific issues you've experienced?

Hi all,

Just to follow-up a bit with the conversation from earlier this week, has anyone else experienced any issues with the My Account portion of the TPAC on mobile devices?  I was going to file a bug report, but wanted to check-in first and see if anyone had experienced these issues and had a workaround, update, etc.

Any thoughts on this would be super....

Development was done for Evergreen release 2.6 to bring the catalog into better compliance with WCAG 2.0.

Work was also done for Evergreen 2.5 to make most catalog interfaces more responsive, optimizing the display of mobile devices. There may have been some interfaces that we missed, but if there is any screen that isn't displaying well on a mobile device, I recommend filing a bug in Launchpad at https://bugs.launchpad.net/evergreen to let the developers know. There's a nice blog post about the project at http://evergreen-ils.org/hackaway13-mobile-catalog/.

I hope this helps!

Good afternoon,

Just wondering is there any development for Evergreen OPAC  optimizing websites and applications for mobile devices?

Will it meet the technical specifications for the Web and mobile presence, ensure that each device-based mobile application meets all five WCAG 2.0 conformance requirements? For the purposes of this standard, requirements of applying to Web pages equally applying to device-based mobile applications screens, such as Web Experience Toolkit (WET4)?

Thanks,
