Integrate the web catalog

Integrate the web catalog into the Wise portal

The easiest way is to use the web catalog is within the Wise portal. By setting an xsl variable, use is made of the web catalog instead of the conventional search screen.

Approach:
Put in the file (wiseweb) /home/web/portal/xsl/common.xsl this variable:
<xsl: variable name = "wisecatplus" select = "'true'" />

This variant is not communicated anywhere, but can be requested, see for example:

• http://bicatwww.obbh.nl/cgi-bin/bx.pl
• http://bndweb.biblionetdrenthe.nl/cgi-bin/bx.pl?vestnr=9540;var=portal

Integrate the web catalog into your Joomla website

When a Joomla website is used, there is an additional player in addition to the Wise servers: the Joomla! Server.

Approach:
The use of web catalog involves quite a bit of configuration and moreover requires setting up a number of pages within Joomla. Contact OCLC for assistance with the integration.

Integrate the web catalog in a WaaS website

The web catalog can NOT be integrated with the WaaS - however, the web catalog can be invoked from the WaaS. By aligning the layout of the portal with that in the WaaS, navigation between WaaS and the portal is unobtrusive for the end user (in other words: he does not notice it).

Approach:
You must instruct the KB to adjust the search form of the WaaS. The form must link to:
http://<url-naar-portal>/cgi-bin/bx.pl?event=osearch&format=xml&vestnr=6598&var=portal&qs=%ID%&zoek_knop=Zoek...#

Contact OCLC for more information.

Header/footer integration of the WaaS/web catalog

A URI field is available in the Wise configuration manager. Here must be specified per instance where the header / footer-xml can be found.

Approach:

1. Apply styling.nl
In /home/web/portal/css/mystyle.css indicate that you want to use the newstyle.css:
@import "/rsrc/css/newstyle.css";

Comment / remove the other style.

2. Fill in the URI Header field
In the Wise configuration manager, go to OCLC Wise > Management organizations > Library organizations and enter the URI in the Header URI field.
For each instance in the header URI field, indicate where the header / footer xml can be found, eg http://www.debibliotheekaanzet.nl/home.site.xml

3. Have the links refer
The links that link from the WaaS to the framed portal pages (eg 'Join here') must refer directly to portal pages.

4. WaaS Record menu
The header currently displayed in the portal is no longer visible. The menu items that are now there can therefore no longer be found and must be included in the WaaS menu.

5. Empty Apache file cache
Keep in mind that these changes are active one day later.
