With more library systems or multiple-branch libraries using Koha, it would be really helpful to be able to customize the look of the staff client based on the library a staff member is logged in at. For instance, allow a library system to designate a header or background color on the staff client based on the branch. So branch A would be green, branch B would be purple, etc. This would allow users to easily and quickly identify which branch they are logged in to.
Would the colors be defined in the branch admin section? ( branches.tt )?
(In reply to Lucas Gass from comment #1) > Would the colors be defined in the branch admin section? ( branches.tt )? That seems like a good place for it, yes!
Giving this another bump after the staff interface design overhaul. This is still something we're accomplishing with jquery and css; it'd be great to have something more stable.
We customize our discovery layer already, it would be great to make it easier to put visual branding in for staff, that avoids a lot of jquery and css. We just have too many branches to take that approach. - Bob Bennhoff
I agree with Andrew - having a more stable option for this would be ideal. We use our branch "color coding" (different menu bar colors @ each location) as a visual reminder for staff who move between locations. It's a simple yet effective way to cut down on errors.
Now that we have OpacUser* options on library level, we could probably do the same for the staff interface?
