=====Evergreen Documentation Needs===== ==== High level workflow for documenting new EG features ==== ^ **1. Choose a Task** ^ **2. Read Release Notes** ^ **3. Update the Docs** ^ | \\ - Look at the task list below and add your name next to a task\\ - Need a wiki account? [[docs@evergreen-ils.org|Just ask]]. | \\ - Review the release notes entry for the feature (and/or the Launchpad bug)\\ - It may need a new section in one or more of the [[http://docs.evergreen-ils.org|official manuals]]\\ - It may fit within an existing section\\ - It may only need updated screenshots\\ - You may be able to simply copy the release note into the appropriate section | \\ - Make corrections in any\\ format (perhaps by editing\\ on GitHub) and share with the [[evergreen-documentation@list.evergreen-ils.org|email list]]\\ - Learn more about [[evergreen-docs:how-to-contribute-documentation|ways to contribute your changes]] | ==== Style Guide ==== * Remember to follow (and improve) the [[evergreen-docs:dig_style_guide|DIG Style Guide]] ====3.12 Documentation Still Needed==== List here all extant documentation needed for Evergreen version 3.12: * Hatch Print Config Angular Port ([[https://bugs.launchpad.net/evergreen/+bug/1965326|LP1965326]]) - there's not a lot on Hatch in general in the documentation. * Shelving Locations Editor: Hide deleted shelving locations by default ([[https://bugs.launchpad.net/evergreen/+bug/1917092|LP1917092]]) - can likely just be a quick/short addition maybe in the intro or in the section about deleting * Staff can now set a default item alert type for new item alerts ([[https://bugs.launchpad.net/evergreen/+bug/2017673|LP2017673]]) * Two new filter combo boxes have been added to the Holds Pull List ([[https://bugs.launchpad.net/evergreen/+bug/1968070|LP1968070]]) - I (Susan) can take this one, I made some updates to PINES's docs that I can generalize * Grids throughout the staff client now have an option to print only rows that the user has selected, rather than printing all rows in the grid([[https://bugs.launchpad.net/evergreen/+bug/2037128|LP2037128]]) - Susan can take this one too * Adds display of upcoming closures (as entered in the Closed Dates Editor) to the library information pages in the OPAC.

TIPS

Check Sitka's documentation, especially when documenting older features: Also, consider adding links to their YouTube videos.
===== Quick Start Guides ===== We would like to provide an "Evergreen Quick Start" guide for the most common functions of Evergreen. The intended audience is library volunteers, student workers, and staff who are new to libraries. Learn more about the [[evergreen-docs:quickstarts|initial idea]]. * [[http://www.sandbox.lbcc.linnlibraries.org/Evergreen/docs/quickstarts/check_out.html|Proof of concept]] * Some key features of such a guide would be: * Short (hopefully fitting on a single page printout) * Simple (no library jargon, no extra explanations) * Generic (not specific to any library or consortium) * Includes a short video * See [[https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLdwlgwBNnH4rSKEJPA3Q_vz7QO-h4JN0P|Sitka's short videos]] for examples. Here's a list of the guides we think we need. Feel free to add more! ==== Check In ==== ==== Check Out ==== * See the [[evergreen-docs:quickstarts#check_out|draft of a video script]]. ==== Adding Holdings ==== Adding call numbers and items to a bibliographic record. * How would you say "bibliographic record" without library jargon? ===== Undocumented Features/Changes, Taken From Release Notes ===== **Many of these will be easy changes. Some will need no changes at all.** Copy the HTML code below to update the status of an item: * Assign yourself: ''[your name]'' ([your name]) * Add a status: '' COMPLETE!'' (COMPLETE!) ==== Acquisitions ==== * [3.6] [[https://evergreen-ils.org/documentation/release/RELEASE_NOTES_3_6_0.html#_acquisitions|Angular Providers Interface]] -- could use some re-writing and new screenshots. * [3.2] [[https://evergreen-ils.org/documentation/release/RELEASE_NOTES_3_2.html|Invoice Closed Date and Closed By Fields]] -- it would be helpful to document the advice about creating report templates here * [2.4] [[https://evergreen-ils.org/documentation/release/RELEASE_NOTES_2_4.html|Acquisitions Inline Item Detail View]] -

we couldn't limit by format, properly retrieve e-resources, or navigate metarecord search results correctly. Since those bugs weren't mentioned in docs, I don't think anything new needs to be added here. It just works in places that it didn't work before. * [2.12] [[https://evergreen-ils.org/documentation/release/RELEASE_NOTES_2_12.html|Allow Metarecord Search by default]] * [2.12] [[https://evergreen-ils.org/documentation/release/RELEASE_NOTES_2_12.html|RDA Improvements]] * [2.10] [[https://evergreen-ils.org/documentation/release/RELEASE_NOTES_2_10.html|Editable borrowing history]] Jennifer in progress * [2.10] [[https://evergreen-ils.org/documentation/release/RELEASE_NOTES_2_10.html|Patron history disable warning]] Jennifer in progress * [2.10] [[https://evergreen-ils.org/documentation/release/RELEASE_NOTES_2_10.html|New form/genre search and facet index]] * [2.10] [[https://evergreen-ils.org/documentation/release/RELEASE_NOTES_2_10.html|Limit numbers of facets retrieved during search]] * [2.10] [[https://evergreen-ils.org/documentation/release/RELEASE_NOTES_2_10.html|Password reset without an email address]] * [2.9] [[http://evergreen-ils.org/documentation/release/RELEASE_NOTES_2_9.html#_new_class_attribute_for_e_resource_links|New class attribute for e-resource links]] * **EASY:** Add release notes to [[http://docs.evergreen-ils.org/dev/_designing_your_catalog.html|TPAC docs]] within section "Adding and removing MARC fields from the record details display page" * [2.5] [[https://evergreen-ils.org/documentation/release/RELEASE_NOTES_2_5.html|Conjoined items -

If there is any warning or error output, it should signal a failure of the tests. * Ideas to improve this include: * Adding spellcheck (using the [[http://git.evergreen-ils.org/?p=Evergreen.git;a=commit;h=8631cf299664da0cbc12a3841bddff52740687ec|aspell wordlist]]) * [[http://georgialibraries.markmail.org/thread/l5ttj5rqmgndsrek|Checking for other common mistakes]] (incorrect image references, unused image files, etc.) * Improve the PDF version of the built documentation (ask community for usage, ideas, etc.) * Setup/use Google analytics to improve docs website design * UI improvements * [[http://georgialibraries.markmail.org/thread/kjddts4zod2uwbe6|OPW intern ideas]]
