How to add more quick limit options

Question

How to add additional quick limits available on Basic search page?

Answer

1. cd /m1/voyager/xxxdb/tomcat/vwebv/context/vwebv/ui/<skin>
2. Open webvoyage.properties for editing.
3. Find the "Limit To" section and add additional limits in format specified in file.
4. Save changes.

Additional Information

Example lines to add for limit to specific location:

page.search.limitTo.Main=
page.search.limitTo.Main.limit=LOCA=Main
page.search.limitTo.Main.order=5
page.search.limitTo.Main.text=Main Library

You can use this handy SQL query in Prepackaged Access Reports to identify the Voyager Locations that are associated with Location Limit Groups:

SELECT LOCATION_LIMIT.LIMIT_NAME, LOCATION_LIMIT.LIMIT_CODE, 
LOCATION_LIMIT.SUPPRESS_IN_OPAC, LOCATION.LOCATION_DISPLAY_NAME, 
LOCATION.LOCATION_NAME, LOCATION.LOCATION_CODE
FROM (LOCATION_LIMIT INNER JOIN LOCATION_LIMIT_LOCS 
ON LOCATION_LIMIT.LOCATION_LIMIT_ID = LOCATION_LIMIT_LOCS.LOCATION_LIMIT_ID) 
INNER JOIN LOCATION ON LOCATION_LIMIT_LOCS.LOCATION_ID = LOCATION.LOCATION_ID
ORDER BY LOCATION_LIMIT.LIMIT_NAME, LOCATION.LOCATION_DISPLAY_NAME;

See the WebVoyage Architecture Overview and Configuration guide, Chapter 4.
