https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=33190 Bug ID: 33190 Summary: Add search history button to advance search form if EnableSearchHistory keep Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: master Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: Searching Assignee: koha-bugs(a)lists.koha-community.org Reporter: adam.styles(a)esa.edu.au QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org Created attachment 148047 --> https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/attachment.cgi?id=148047&action=e… screen shot of search history button in koha dev box as preview Hi All, I believe the 'search history' feature to be quite useful in daily repeated search work flows, further to this it is a feature fairly hidden behind a drop down UI in the top right when logged in. Therefor to promote the use of this valuable tool and also to improve it's discoverability, I propose the follow new enhancement. User story: * Add 'search history' button to advanced search button groups if 'EnableSearchHistory' sys pref is set to 'keep' Key logic: * If 'EnableSearchHistory' sys pref is set to 'keep' (this is an existing sys pref), an additional 'search history' button will populate at the of the current advance search buttons group * This new button element makes use of the existing syntax for other button on page and loads the font awesome 4.7 history icon which aligns with the buttons action. * The button will not display unless 'EnableSearchHistory' sys pref is set to 'keep', which makes use of a IF statement in the advsearch.tt template file at around line 100 ish (see patch) ``` [% IF Koha.Preference('EnableSearchHistory') %] <div class="btn-group"> <a href="/cgi-bin/koha/catalogue/search-history.pl" class="btn btn-link"><i class="fa fa-history"></i> search history</a> </div> [% END %] ``` I have tested in Koha dev box v22 and all works well. I will create test plan in patch commit message. I am creating my first patch for this very soon, just reading coding guidelines to ensure I patch as community expects. See attached screen shot. I welcome feedback. Thanks. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes. You are the assignee for the bug.

[Bug 36434] New: Use a keyword that will be secretly included in all OPAC bibliographic and authority searches

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=36434 Bug ID: 36434 Summary: Use a keyword that will be secretly included in all OPAC bibliographic and authority searches Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: master Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: OPAC Assignee: oleonard(a)myacpl.org Reporter: aleisha(a)catalyst.net.nz QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org Libraries might repurpose their OPAC to only search certain records. These records might still have relevant collection, item type, shelving location information, so it doesn't work to use these fields to filter OPAC searches on. It might be easier to add a 'keyword' to the MARC for these records, and have Koha secretly apply this keyword to the search, when switched on. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=36007 Bug ID: 36007 Summary: Add the ability to batch edit in Course Reserves Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: 23.11 Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: Course reserves Assignee: koha-bugs(a)lists.koha-community.org Reporter: kelly(a)bywatersolutions.com QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org It would be nice to have the ability to batch edit in course reserves. A scenario could be, a course is reactivated, the items in the course are the same, but they all need to be relocated for the course is happening at a different branch, or a different reserve location. A batch edit would allow staff to retain the list of items in the course, but easily update the new course reserves values. At this time, each item would need to be individually edited. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes. You are the assignee for the bug.

[Bug 27464] New: Extend functionality of AllowHoldsPolicyOverride to prevent some overrides

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=27464 Bug ID: 27464 Summary: Extend functionality of AllowHoldsPolicyOverride to prevent some overrides Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: 19.05 Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: Hold requests Assignee: koha-bugs(a)lists.koha-community.org Reporter: madamyk(a)ckls.org QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org CC: gmcharlt(a)gmail.com If one tries to create a "local use only" item type, there isn't a good way to make it impossible to place holds for anywhere other than its home branch. Setting restrictions on it in Circ rules allows any staff member with permissions to override the hold restrictions. Another option is setting an item to a lost status, but this is certainly not ideal: it clears the status every time the item is scanned, and it affects how it appears in the OPAC. What if there were a way to have finer control over the AllowHoldsPolicyOverride system preference? For instance, allow hold overrides as a separate permission for overriding circulation rules vs. overriding patron restrictions. It seems logical that overriding a restriction to check out to a patron is quite a bit different from ignoring specific circulation rules (if that makes sense). Perhaps another way to work around this would be a checkbox in the circulation rules with an option to "Ignore staff overrides" or something similar? It could be turned on or off for each individual circulation rule. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=24806 Bug ID: 24806 Summary: Syspref ILLOpacbackends can not be disbled Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: 19.11 Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: ILL Assignee: koha-bugs(a)lists.koha-community.org Reporter: hans.palsson(a)hkr.se The syspref ILLOpacbackends allows admin to choose which ILL-backends that should be available to the user in the OPAC. However, there is no way of _not_ having any backends, even the syspref is described as "If left empty, all installed backends will be enabled". A syspref should not behave like this, if the field is left empty no backends should be available in the OPAC (?). An alternative solution is to set another syspref that enables/disables use of ILL in OPAC. Libraries that do not allow ordering of ILL from the OPAC must be able to hide this feature. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

[Bug 32748] New: Library limitations will cause data loss when editing items

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=32748 Bug ID: 32748 Summary: Library limitations will cause data loss when editing items Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: master Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: major Priority: P5 - low Component: Cataloging Assignee: koha-bugs(a)lists.koha-community.org Reporter: katrin.fischer(a)bsz-bw.de QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org CC: m.de.rooy(a)rijksmuseum.nl Moving this from bug 31422 where another issue was fixed to a new bug report: The library limitations are used to limit down the selection in pull downs in several spots. If you are editing data from library B while logged in at library A, doing so might result in data loss as the value stored in the modified object might be missing from the drop downs your user sees. Example 1: Item values Itemtype: BK Books - limited to Centerville AV LOC: FIC Fiction - limited to Centerville Your user: logged in for Centerville * Edit an item and make sure it uses the itemtype Books and location Fiction. * Switch library to any but Centerville. * Edit item: Both item type and location drow downs will be empty. * Saving now will empty out itemtype (if not set mandatory) and location resulting in data loss. I initially thought that bug 20256 might help here, but it won't as there is a mismatch of one feature checking the login library and the other checking the home library of the staff patron. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

[Bug 20930] New: Handle YAML type system preferences as parsed references

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=20930 Bug ID: 20930 Summary: Handle YAML type system preferences as parsed references Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: unspecified Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: Architecture, internals, and plumbing Assignee: koha-bugs(a)lists.koha-community.org Reporter: lari.taskula(a)jns.fi QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org Currently, C4::Context->preference('YAMLpref') returns a string that needs to be parsed by any code using the preference. My suggestion is to return a parsed version instead (a hash/array ref or a string) and using the syspref cache with the parsed value. Like this, we could: - centralize parsing of YAML system preferences - optimize use of system preference cache by caching the parsed version instead. Parse once and store in cache; no need to re-parse on each call! We could centralize this functionality into Koha::Config::SysPref->value() (used by C4::Context->preference). Use database column systempreferences.type with value of "yaml" to trigger this functionality in "value()"-method. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

[Bug 35054] New: Waiting hold cancellation rules need to include in transit and staff side cancellations

It would be helpful if a patron could cancel the hold even while in transit. It would also be helpful if we had an option for staff cancelled holds to be put on that table. Staff that cancel a hold for a patron are not always able to jump up and grab that hold right away. This should be an option. Either a setting with the rule, or an option on the fly. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes. You are the assignee for the bug.
