About menu_options
The menu options and the order in which they are displayed are controlled by the menu_options array in the g_menu Configuration Block.
- Go to OPAC> ConfigurationSettings.
- Change the search type to Configuration Settings by Config Block.
- Search for g_menu:
| Config Setting ID | Interface | Config Block | 場景 | Value | Sequence1 | Sequence2 | Include? |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 604800 | 1 | g_menu | menu_options | "searchMenu" | 1 | 1 | Y |
| 604801 | 1 | g_menu | menu_options | "catListsMenu" | 1 | 2 | Y |
| 604802 | 1 | g_menu | menu_options | "userServicesMenu" | 1 | 3 | Y |
| 604803 | 1 | g_menu | menu_options | "linksMenu" | 1 | 4 | Y |
| 604804 | 1 | g_menu | menu_options | "contactUsMenu" | 1 | 5 | Y |
| 604805 | 1 | g_menu | menu_options | "helpMenu" | 1 | 6 | Y |
Change display order
The Sequence 2 number controls the display order of the options - in this case, the Folio menu bar.
- Open the setting in modify and change the Sequence2 number in relation to the other menu option settings. For example swap the order of "Contact Us" and "Help" by making them 6 and 5 respectively.
Exclude options
If there are options you do not wish to appear then just exclude them (Include?=N).
- A quick way to do this is in the hitlist: check the box to select the setting.
- In Other Actions choose Exclude.
Once Folio is refreshed that option is no longer present.
Rename options
In each case the menu name is controlled by the Value 2 field (except for the lists menu where it is controlled by the menu_text setting in g_listmenu).
- Open the setting in modify.
- Edit the Value 2 field to contain your preferred text and retain the double quotes ("").
- Save the change and refresh Folio.
Search options
By default the options available on the search menu are:
- 關鍵字
- Title/Author
- Advanced
The smenu_options array in g_searchmenu control the available searches.
- Go to OPAC> Configuration Settings.
- Use the search type Configuration Settings by Config Block and search g_searchmenu:
| Config Setting ID | Interface | Config Block | 場景 | Value | Sequence1 | Sequence2 | Include? |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 604850 | 1 | g_searchmenu | smenu_options | "kws2" | 1 | 1 | Y |
| 604851 | 1 | g_searchmenu | smenu_options | "tiau" | 1 | 2 | Y |
| 604853 | 1 | g_searchmenu | smenu_options | "adv" | 1 | 3 | Y |

Change the display order, exclude/include or rename as normal.
To enable an additional search – simply include it. If you want the options in a different sequence just change the Sequence 2 values.
Tip: sometimes the refresh does not work and the browser cache needs to be cleared to see the change. Alternatively open Folio in a different browser.
Lists
This feature allows you to create Folio Lists of latest acquisitions, reading lists, course lists and so on and make them available in Folio.

These are configured using the cumenu_options array in g_contmenu.

You should configure these to contact your own organisation, or if you want your users to only use one of these routes, set Include=N for one of them.
Alternatively, if you prefer no contact for users, you should disable this whole array (Include=N) using the menu_options settings in g_menu.
