But it only carries the `plugin_class` value. We need to pass the error from the `try/catch` block so it gets returned to the caller as well. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

[Bug 40004] New: Standardize spelling of "Self Checkout" to "Self-checkout" with hyphen in UI

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=40004 Bug ID: 40004 Summary: Standardize spelling of "Self Checkout" to "Self-checkout" with hyphen in UI Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: 24.11 Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: Self checkout Assignee: koha-bugs(a)lists.koha-community.org Reporter: mihai.bojonca(a)tcmi.edu QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org Created attachment 182796 --> https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/attachment.cgi?id=182796&action=e… SCO OPAC We believe this term should be standardized across Koha. "Self-checkout" (with a hyphen) is strongly indicated as the correct spelling according to major online dictionaries and general search results. While we haven't exhaustively checked every English language variant (GB, US, AU, etc.), key dictionaries like Collins, Merriam-Webster, and Oxford consistently define "self-" as a prefix that requires a hyphen in this context. Standardizing on "Self-checkout" would improve consistency within the Koha interface and align it with widely accepted English usage, making it clearer and more professional for all users. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=35669 Bug ID: 35669 Summary: Update check in message for a specific authorized value in the LOST authorized values Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: master Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: Circulation Assignee: koha-bugs(a)lists.koha-community.org Reporter: Laura.escamilla(a)bywatersolutions.com QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org CC: gmcharlt(a)gmail.com, kyle.m.hall(a)gmail.com To recreate: 1. Set an item to a Lost status of "Lost". When you check in that item you will get a message that says "Item was lost, now found." 2. Set an item to a Lost status of "Missing". When you check in that item you will get the same message that says "Item was lost, now found." Some libraries would like this message to reflect the correct authorised value that was previously set. So if they have a lost value of "In repair", the check in message would say "Item was In repair, now found." -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

WCAG 2.1 1.4.3 Contrast (Minimum) Level AA: "The visual presentation of text and images of text has a contrast ratio of at least 4.5:1, except for the following: - Large Text: Large-scale text and images of large-scale text have a contrast ratio of at least 3:1; - Incidental: Text or images of text that are part of an inactive user interface component, that are pure decoration, that are not visible to anyone, or that are part of a picture that contains significant other visual content, have no contrast requirement. - Logotypes: Text that is part of a logo or brand name has no contrast requirement." (https://www.w3.org/WAI/WCAG21/quickref/?versions=2.0#contrast-minimum) There are several free websites for checking the contrast ratio, e.g. https://webaim.org/resources/contrastchecker/ You can also use the built-in accessibility functions in Firefox and Chrome, as well as specialist accessibility browser extensions like WAVE (https://wave.webaim.org/) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

We should try to use this method consistently throughout Koha rather than manually setting these in different area's of the codebase. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

[Bug 40235] New: You cannot see the holds affecting borrower's checkouts, if the borrower has restrictions

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=40235 Bug ID: 40235 Summary: You cannot see the holds affecting borrower's checkouts, if the borrower has restrictions Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: 25.05 Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: Circulation Assignee: koha-bugs(a)lists.koha-community.org Reporter: inkeri.hakulinen+bugz(a)helsinki.fi QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org CC: gmcharlt(a)gmail.com, kyle.m.hall(a)gmail.com If the borrower has restrictions on their account, you cannot see the holds that affect borrower's checkouts. Usually you see from the staff interface, if there are any holds towards borrower's checkouts, and they prevent renewals. However, if a borrower has some restrictions, you cannot see the holds. Koha only shows that renewal is impossible because of the restriction. Affecting holds would be important information, when you discuss with the borrower about their situation and what they have to do to lift the restrictions. To demonstrate the problem: 1. Create borrowers A and B 2. Check out some items (i,j) to borrower A. 3. Place a hold for the item i by borrower B. 4. See from check-outs of borrower A, that you can see that the item i cannot be renewed, since there's a hold for that item. The item j is possible to renew. 5. Create a restriction for the borrower A. 6. See the check-outs of borrower A, and notice that all the checkouts seem the same. none of them are seen as renewable. Further, you can try to "override renewal restrictions". Then you can see that all the checked-out items now have a checkbox for renewal. If you actually do try to renew those, the one on hold says "Renew failed: on hold". So that actually works as it should, but you just don't see the situation beforehand. In cases of restrictions, it would be good to be able to tell the borrower about the possible holds. Otherwise you might have a situation, where borrower comes again, settles the cause that was the reason for the restriction, restriction is remowed, and only after that the borrower (and staff) finds out that all the check-outs cannot be actually renewed, because of the holds. So I propose that even in cases of borrower having restrictions, the holds that affect their checkouts would be visible. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
