    Every item in the database *must* have a *unique* barcode. Even if you have duplicate titles.

    The quotes and commas *must* be ASCII. It is possible for *some* of the fields to have UTF-8 (eg random text fields: titles, authors, keywords, subject, description), but the barcodes have to be ASCII.

    I just used cat (Linux command line program). I use a MicroEmacs under Linux:

    Summary : JASSPA MicroEmacs Console
    Description :
    The console version of JASSPA MircoEmacs an enhanced version of Daniel
    Lawrence’s original MicroEmacs 3.8. It has a small memory and disk footprint
    while still providing most of the useful Emacs functionality. MicroEmacs includes
    an integrated spell-checker, macro language, major modes for most languages,
    color syntax highlighting in X and console modes, online help, file browser,
    and much more!

    (I don’t know if there is a MS-Windows version — I’ve only ever used it under
    Linux.)

    Well these all have UTF-8 quote characters (in my E-Mail). I don’t know
    if this is Notepad or your mail client doing that. I’m *guessing* it is
    Notepad *or* Excel, since the WebLibrarian is compaining and it does not add
    its own quote marks in its messages. *DON’T* use UTF-8 quote characters, use
    *ASCII* quote characters. Best not to use quote characters, unless you need
    to. And then make sure they are *ASCII* quote characters.

    I just uploaded your test CSV file into my WebLibrarian test site and it uploaded just fine. I just copied and pasted from my E-Mail. I wonder if there is a “funny” character in your file.

    The best way to do this is to create a fork and code in the fields, etc.

    I found a theme named Avata, and the request buttom works just fine with it (using the current version of WebLibrarian).

    I can’t seem to find the Avada WordPress Theme to test with. Where is it?

    Have you udated to the latest version of WebLibrarian? I am pretty sure that should fix it.

    Ok, it looks like my code is not queuing up a load of jQuery and I have been getting away with that becuase most themes are already loading jQuery. Thedefault theme does not seem to load jQuery…

    I just pushed a new version which should load jQuery if it not otherwise being loaded.

    Plugin Author Robert Heller

    (@robertpheller)

    Hmmm… Sounds like the default WordPress theme (Twenty Nineteen) is causing something odd to happen with loading the jQuery code…

    I have had requests to add some “odd” features, including the ability for patrons to check their own books out. And it looks like *someone* (who might have asked for such a feature), contrived a “creative” way to hack the feature in him/herself… From the point of view of a regular brick-and-mortar lending library, some of these features don’t really make sense, which is why I have not added them.

    If you do make the change, be sure to make all of the new links “relative”. This will make things seamless if the library ever moves again.

    I just looked at the source. It is definate: those buttons are not short code generated, but are embeded in the description, warts (hard coded abs. URL) and all.

    Plugin Author Robert Heller

    (@robertpheller)

    It is also possible that the “Request Checkout” button (as well as the “Buy from Amazon” button) are actually in the item description content. It is most definately NOT in *my* short code. My code *generates* “Request” button, which places a hold, but only if the user is logged in and is a patron and there is a user <=> patron mapping. And that works with AJAX and does not involve a link to anywhere, and the URLs involved are all properly fetched from WP and there are no URLs hard coded anywhere.

    If it is in the description content, I *think* a search and replace plugin might fix it. Or might not, depending on how the search and replace plugin works (it might skip database tables it does not know about).

    Plugin Author Robert Heller

    (@robertpheller)

    Did you hack the short codes? The “Request Checkout” button is NOT in *My* code… This is something you (or you PHP hacker guy) added.

    You need to create the Circulation Types on the Circulation Types page. See pages 12 and 13 of the user manual. Circulation types just define the load period. For example, adult books might be loaned for 3 weeks, but DVDs for only 1 week.
