07:19 rhamby kmlussier: gmcharlt: yeah, I'm a brand manager on the google profile so that should include the G+ page though I admit I've never done anything with it only youtube
07:24 rhamby kmlussier: gmcharlt: G+ is shutting down though I don't know the timeline, a quick search is only showing me "in the next 10 months" as of an october article
07:24 kmlussier rhamby: OK. I think somebody needs to start feeding the evergreen-ils through their wordpress.com account. I'm pretty sure gmcharlt already has an account tied to JetPack. Whoever does that should also be an admin for the Google+ account.
07:25 kmlussier rhamby: I found August 31, 2019
07:25 rhamby I think our reach through G+ is low enough that I'm not concerned about it (which is kind of sad, G+ does have some strong communities)
07:34 kmlussier Yeah, at one time there were quite a few Google+ users from the community. Now I just see Dyrcona on there, and not very often.

07:54 rhamby gmcharlt: kmlussier: I'm going to move this chat onto the outreach list but since there's no real danger to duplicating information I have moved the link to wordpress.com over to my account and facebook & G+ sharing is setup, twitter credentials are another issue (who has those, I'm a contribuotor but don't have the credentials) a
07:54 rhamby but I don't think we have twitter direct sharing setup right now anyway do we?
08:04 kmlussier rhamby: Twitter is handled differently because we also feed Planet Evergreen there. I'll send you credentials.
08:06 rhamby kmlussier++ : thanks, I also sent to the outreach list basic instructions on how to do all this incase it needs to be done again before everything changes, in case I get hit by a bus or something

08:35 * kmlussier tries to recall where the wiki page is that identifies administrators for different evergreen-ils things.
08:36 bos20k Hello. Question regarding the XUL staff client. Does it use HTTP or HTTPS for its communication with the server?
08:36 kmlussier Ah, this is it. https://wiki.evergreen-ils.org/do​ku.php?id=website_administration
08:37 jonadab bos20k: https normally.
08:37 bos20k Ok, thanks.  We are thinking about putting in an Apache redirect to redirect all port 80 requests to 443 and want to make sure it won't cause any problems.

08:42 jonadab bos20k: For the sake of the public catalog, just don't tighten down your list of acceptable ciphers too much.
08:42 jonadab That's the main problem you'll run into with older browsers:  they won't support the newest ciphers.
08:43 bos20k jonadab: Good tip, thanks for reminding me of that.

08:50 kmlussier bos20k: Be aware of this bug 1507013
08:50 pinesol Launchpad bug 1507013 in Evergreen "Forcing HTTPS breaks some functionality in staff client" [Undecided,Won't fix] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1507013
08:55 bos20k kmlussier: Thanks for the warning! We might look at using the patch there to make offline work.  Our z3950 proxy does not use the same servers as our OPAC and Staff Client do so I don't think the other issue will affect us.
08:55 bos20k kmlussier++
08:59 kmlussier I apparently am not allowed to remove myself as an admin for Google calendars. Somebody else will need to remove me from the community calendar, dev calendar. doc calendar, oversight board calendar, and outreach calendar.
08:59 kmlussier Actually, general cleanup of admins from those calendars will probably be good. I see other people there who probably should be removed.
08:59 mmorgan That decides it then, you'll have to stay ;-)
09:00 kmlussier mmorgan: Ha! Nice try. :)

10:58 nfburton Does anyone know where the OPAC search sort parameters are defined? I want to look at adding a sort by created date
11:01 kmlussier nfburton: templates/opac/parts/filtersort.tt2
11:01 jeff_ joined #evergreen
11:02 nfburton I was thinking further back where the sorts are defined that are called there
11:03 nfburton Like titlesort, pubsort so I can add createsort or something like that
11:10 kmlussier I'm not sure. For some reason, I thought there was a way to sort by create date, but I must be misremembering.
11:10 dbwells_ nfburton: It already exists, just not wired up by default.  sort=create_date.descending in the catalog URL should show it working, so you only need to add the UI bits.
11:11 kmlussier dbwells++
11:12 nfburton Oh! That's fantastic because pubDate isn't quite as useful as I thought it would be and the only one I have commented is the popularity sort
11:16 kmlussier It probably would be a nice feature to add the commented code to titlesort.tt2 so that it's easier for people to implement.
11:17 nfburton For sure!
11:17 nfburton I figured it was an option but had no variable name to use
11:18 kmlussier comcast--
11:18 kmlussier Today is a very, very bad day for Internet to start slowing down for me.
