LibrisKey

Asks: Swedish service for spellchecking. LIBRIS spellchecking API key ___

Beschreibung:

LibrisURL

Asks: LIBRIS base URL ___

Default: http://api.libris.kb.se/bibspell/

Beschreibung:

  • This system preference is used to set the base URL for the LIBRIS spellchecking service API

  • The default value should be the right one. Make sure you only change it if you are sure it needs to be changed

Funktionen

BrowseResultSelection

Asks: ___ browsing search results from the bibliographic record detail page in staff interface.

Voreinstellung: Deaktiviere

Werte:

  • Deaktiviere

  • Aktiviere

Beschreibung:

  • Enabling this system preference makes a button appear in the staff interface search results page to browse the selected records.

ElasticsearchCrossFields

Asks: ___ the cross_fields option for Elasticsearch searches.

Standard: Aktiviere

Werte:

  • Deaktiviere

  • Aktiviere

Bemerkung

The cross_fields option is supported in Elasticsearch 6.X and above.

Beschreibung:

  • This system preference controls whether or not Elasticsearch’s cross_fields option is enabled. As this option only works with ES6 and above, this system preference should be disabled if using an older version.

  • The cross_fields option is used in keyword searches to search across all fields. In Koha, keyword searches are not searches in a specific ‚keyword‘ index, but rather a search across all searchable indexes. With Elasticsearch 6, if cross_fields is disabled, the keyword search will return results where the search terms all appear in the same index (for example, the ‚title‘ index). If cross_fields is enabled, the keyword search will return results where the search terms appear in any index.

    Bemerkung

    For example, a keyword search for „king grass“ with Elasticsearch 6 will return the following results

    With ElasticsearchCrossFields disabled:

    • The Island of the Grass King by Nancy Willard (grass in title/king in title)

    With ElasticsearchCrossFields enabled:

    • The Island of the Grass King by Nancy Willard (grass in title/king in title)

    • In the tall grass by Stephen King (grass in title/king in author)

  • Visit https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/query-dsl-multi-match-query.html#type-cross-fields for more information on this option.

Asks: ___ patron search history in the staff interface.

Default: Don’t keep

Werte:

  • Don’t keep

  • Keep

Beschreibung:

  • This system preference controls whether the staff interface keeps search history for logged in users. Search history will be accessible under the link to your account at the top right of the staff interface.

ESPreventAutoTruncate

Version

Dieser Parameter wurde mit der Koha-Version 24.05 eingeführt.

Asks: List of search fields (separated by | or ,) that should not be autotruncated by Elasticsearch even if QueryAutoTruncate is set to ‚Yes‘: ___

Default: barcode|control-number|control-number-identifier |date-of-acquisition|date-of-publication|date-time-last-modified |identifier-standard|isbn|issn|itype|lc-card-number |number-local-acquisition|other-control-number|record-control-number

Values: any Elasticsearch index name

Beschreibung:

  • This system preference is used to determine which Elasticsearch indexes are not to be autotruncated. In most cases, those are identifiers such as barcode and control-number. Truncating identifiers in the search can return too many results that are not relevant.

  • This system preference is only useful if the SearchEngine system preference is set to ‚Elasticsearch‘ and the QueryAutoTruncate system preference is set to ‚automatically‘.

IncludeSeeFromInSearches

Asks: ___ see from (non-preferred form) headings in bibliographic searches.

Default: Don’t include

Werte:

  • Don’t include

  • Include

Beschreibung:

  • When this system preference is set to ‚include‘, the search engine indexer will insert see from headings from authority records into bibliographic records when indexing, so that a search on an obsolete term will turn up relevant records. For example when you search for cookery (the old term) you get titles with the heading of cooking (the new term).

Screenshot of Advanced search form with tooltip message showing that 'See from' headings are included

Warnung

You will need to reindex your bibliographic database when changing this system preference.

QueryAutoTruncate

Asks: Perform wildcard searching (where, for example, Har would match Harry and harp) ___ (The * character would be used like so: Har* or *logging.)

Default: automatically

Werte:

  • automatically

  • only if * is added

Beschreibung:

  • This setting allows for searches to be automatically truncated or for additional characters to be added to the end of a search string. When set to „automatically“ the search string automatically ends with a wildcard function. For example, a search for the word „invent“ with auto truncation enabled will also retrieve results for inventor, invention, inventory, etc.

  • If you don’t want this to happen automatically you can still be perform wildcard searches manually by adding an asterisk (*). Typing „invent*“ even with auto truncation disabled will retrieve the same inventor, invention, inventory results.

  • Auto truncation bypasses the necessity to type long search strings in their entirety, but can return a lot of undesired results.

Bemerkung

Regardless of this system preference, search engines prevent autotruncation for some search fields.

Zebra prevents the autotruncation for:

  • yr (date of publication)

  • acqdate (date of acquisition)

  • nb (ISBN)

  • ns (ISSN)

  • hi (host itemnumber)

As well as any CCL search with the index specified before the search term (for example, sn:1234 or an:4321), or with one of these search types specified after the index: st-*, phr, or ext (for example, ti,phr:kittens).

Elasticsearch prevents the autotruncation for:

  • biblioitemnumber

  • host-item-number

  • itemnumber

  • koha-auth-number

  • local-number

As well as any search field defined as boolean, sum, or year in the mappings and any other index listed in the ESPreventAutoTruncate system preference.

The prevention of truncation is there so that searches (mostly for identifiers) do not return irrelevant results.

QueryFuzzy

Asks: ___ to match similarly spelled words in a search (for example, a search for flang would also match flange and fang)

Default: Try

Werte:

  • Don’t try

  • Try

Beschreibung:

  • This system preference enables „fuzzy“ searching, in which the search engine returns results that are similar to, but not exactly matching, the word or words entered by the user. This system preference enables the search function to compensate for slightly misspelled names or phrases.

Warnung

This does not work if ICU is enabled in your system.

Warnung

This system preference only works with Zebra. When using Elasticsearch, a fuzzy search can be performed by adding a tilde (~) directly after the term. For example, flang~.

QueryRegexEscapeOptions

Asks: ___ regular expressions within strings.

Default: Escape

Werte:

  • Don’t escape

  • Escape

  • Unescaped escaped

Beschreibung:

  • If ‚Escape‘ is selected occurrences of ‚/‘‘ in search terms will be automatically escaped, and regular expressions interpreted as regular strings. In other words, regular expressions are disabled and search terms are search as-is (for example, ‚an essential grammar / William Z. Shetter‘).

  • If ‚Unescape escaped‘ is selected this will allow writing regular expressions ‚/like this/‘‘ while ‚/this/‘, ‚or/this‘ will be escaped and interpreted as regular strings. In other words, use this option if you want to be able to use regular expressions in your search queries.

  • If ‚Don’t escape‘ is selected, the default behavior of the Elasticsearch search engine will be left unaltered. Several characters will be interpreted as being part of a regular expression, such as the forward slash (/).

Warnung

This system preference is used with Elasticsearch only. If you use Zebra as your SearchEngine, it will not change anything.

QueryStemming

Asks: ___ to match words of the same base in a search

Default: Try

Werte:

  • Don’t try

  • Try

Beschreibung:

  • This system preference enables word stemming. Stemming allows the search function to return multiple versions of the same word, as well as related terms (i.e., both fish and fishing would be returned).

Warnung

This system preference is used with Zebra only. Elasticsearch does stemming searches automatically.

QueryWeightFields

Asks: ___ ranking of search results by relevance

Standard: Aktiviere

Werte:

  • Deaktiviere

  • Aktiviere

Beschreibung:

  • This system preference is used to enable or disable the sorting of search results by relevance.

Beschreibung:

TraceCompleteSubfields

Asks: ___ subject tracings in the OPAC and staff interface to search only for complete-subfield matches.

Default: Force

Werte:

  • Don’t force

    • Searches for subject keywords (example: opac-search.pl?q=su:World%20Wide%20Web)

  • Erzwinge

    • Searches for complete subject fields (example: opac-search.pl?q=su,complete-subfield:World%20Wide%20Web)

Beschreibung:

  • When TraceCompleteSubfields is set to ‚force‘, clicking on links in non-authority controlled subject tracings will only find other records where the entire subfields match. Leaving it at „don’t force“ does a keyword search of the subject indexes.

Warnung

This system preference assumes that XSLT stylesheets are used, as set in the OPACXSLTDetailsDisplay or XSLTDetailsDisplay system preferences.

TraceSubjectSubdivisions

Asks: ___ subdivisions for searches generated by clicking on subject tracings.

Default: Include

Werte:

  • Don’t include

    • Searches for subject keywords (example: opac-search.pl?q=su,complete-subfield:%22Web%20sites%22)

  • Include

    • Searches for complete subject fields (example: opac-search.pl?q=(su,complete-subfield:%22Web%20sites%22)%20and%20(su,complete-subfield:%22Design.%22))

Beschreibung:

  • When TraceSubjectSubdivisions is set to ‚Include‘, if you click on a subject with subdivisions (subfields other than ‚a‘) they will be searched along with the subject heading (subfield ‚a‘). To have only the subject heading (subfield ‚a‘) searched, set this system preference to „Don’t include.“

Warnung

This system preference assumes that XSLT stylesheets are used, as set in the OPACXSLTDetailsDisplay or XSLTDetailsDisplay system preferences.

UseICUStyleQuotes

Asks: ___ ICU style quotes ({}) when tracing subjects.

Standardwert: Nicht benutzen

Werte:

  • Verwende keine

  • Verwenden Sie
