Description Laurence Rault 2012-03-21 10:08:02 UTC
System preferences OPACBaseURL is used at different places in koha, for instance : 
- CAS authentication (7745)
- OAI
- file upload (6874)

Description of the syspref indicates that http:// will automatically be added.

We tested that for oai biblio url and for CAS, it is not the case, and we have to fill http:// in the syspref.

The usage of this syspref in Koha and how it should be really filled should be precised so that it is consistent everywhere

To my opinion, http:// should not be added automatically, for one simple reason: it just might not be http:// !

OPAC might be using https, and in that case, automatic prefill would be wrong.

This also effects RSS feeds I believe.
