Description Mathieu Saby 2022-07-22 08:01:24 UTC
There should be a way for the admin to add any item subfield (even if not mapped to a SQL field) to the results of item search (screen display and CSV export)
Comment 1 Katrin Fischer 2022-07-22 08:05:21 UTC
I think it might be nice to have a "clever" solution that makes sure besides a base set the columns with the criteria you searched for always show. But this might be quite hard to achieve.
Comment 2 Anni Rajala 2024-12-09 08:35:13 UTC
Our libraries have asked about adding several columns on item search results, so it would definitely be nice if admin could add these. Especially now that the columns on item search results -page are adjustable (https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=37238).
Comment 3 Angela Berrett 2024-12-13 21:13:05 UTC
Could this also allow for removing certain columns from the item search? There are some that we never need to see but clog up the table.  Making these "toggle-able" would be great.

Hi Angela, in 24.11 the items table is fully configurable. You can't add any arbitrary fields yet, but you can define visibility for all included columns. Have a look at Administration > Table configuration

Thank you!  I'm making a note for when we get that update.
