It would be useful to have an audit script which could compare the current database with kohastructure.sql to see what differences there are. -- Fortunately, I've come up with a script, which hopefully should get us most of the way there. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

[Bug 33190] New: Add search history button to advance search form if EnableSearchHistory keep

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.

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.

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.

For example - an author passes away, the current behavior is you need to edit the authority record. It would be beneficial to connect to the LOC database to look for updates automatically.
