In this week's Monday Minutes, Nick and Jessie talk about HTML Customizations in the Tools Module. Koha’s HTML customization tool allows staff to post content to the OPAC and Staff Interface.

Navigate to More > Tools > Additional tools > HTML customizations.

Staff will need the edit_additional_contents permission (or the superlibrarian permission) will have access to this tool.

   1. Click +New entry (to use the wysiwyg editor)

   2. Library: - all libraries or a specific location
   3. Publication Date: Use the publication date field to control from which date your content appears
   4. Expiration Date: Use the expiration date field to automatically stop showing the content when it is no longer relevant
