Add Custom Links to the Staff Interface

Add Custom Links to the Staff Interface

The system preference, IntranetNav, allows libraries to add links/text to the top static bar on the Staff Interface.


System Preference

In the system preference, IntranetNav, text or a link can be added that will appear in the top tool bar. Koha does need this in HTML format.

To add a link, enter this into the system preference box:

Info
<li><a href="/cgi-bin/koha/cataloguing/plugin_launcher.pl?plugin_name=cn_browser.pl">Call Number Browse</a></li>

Start with a <li> and always end with a </li>.

The URL is between the quotes. After the URL and > will be the text you would like displayed on the Staff Client.
