Description Barbara Johnson 2020-10-14 20:08:13 UTC
Sometimes I only need to make a quick edit to an item record but then I have to scroll all the way down to the bottom of the form to click the add item/save button.  It would be helpful if the 'Add Item', 'Add & Duplicate' and 'Add Multiple Copies of this Item' buttons that appear at the end of the form could also be included at the top of the form because it would save unnecessary scrolling and make cataloging more efficient.

Our solution at the moment is to use this jQuery:

$("#cat_additem.cat #addsingle").clone().insertAfter('#additema');
$("#cat_additem.cat #add_multiple_copies").clone().insertAfter('#addsingle');
$("#cat_additem.cat #f > fieldset.action").clone().insertAfter('#edititem');

Another option would be to make it float like the save button on the patron edit screen.
Comment 2 Katrin Fischer 2021-01-21 20:03:27 UTC
I really like the idea of floating instead of duplicating here!
Comment 3 Barbara Johnson 2021-01-21 23:58:02 UTC
Yes, that’s a really good idea.
Comment 4 Nancy Wendt 2024-07-30 22:13:00 UTC
The floating buttons would be terrific AND they would make this element in Koha more consistent throughout.  We are new to using Koha and this is one of the things that our Tech Services staff would really like to see.  Thank you!
