https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=28633 Bug ID: 28633 Summary: Add a preferred_name field and an effective_name method to patrons Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: master Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: Patrons Assignee: koha-bugs(a)lists.koha-community.org Reporter: nick(a)bywatersolutions.com QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org CC: gmcharlt(a)gmail.com, kyle.m.hall(a)gmail.com Some institutions store legal names in their directories and for patron imports, but would also like to be able to record 'preferred' names in the patro records. It would be nice to have a field for preferred_name and a method to select the preferred name when it exists, and the firstname when it doesn't Following the item we would suggest 'effective_name' - the additional method can be used in patron-title.inc and in notices to simplify name choice. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

[Bug 31484] New: Renewals disabled message doesn't display all reasons why something cannot be renewed

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=31484 Bug ID: 31484 Summary: Renewals disabled message doesn't display all reasons why something cannot be renewed 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: lucas(a)bywatersolutions.com QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org CC: gmcharlt(a)gmail.com, kyle.m.hall(a)gmail.com There are many reasons why the renewals-disabled button might display in the issues table but not all of them will display depending on the circumstance, this can hamper librarians ability to make correct choices. For example: 1. Have an item checkout out what can be renewed at least one time BUT make that item overdue. 2. In the renewal column you'll see "0 Not allowed: overdue". That is good. 3. Have 'AllowRenewalOnHoldOverride' set to 'Don't allow' 4. Place the same item from 1-2 on hold. Make it an item level hold on that specific item. 5. Look at the issues table again, it still says "0 Not allowed: overdue". 6. The message should include some language saying the item can't be renewed becuase it is on hold AND it is overdue. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

Sometimes, like when creating accounts for ILL, you don't want to send the info. It would also be great if there were a preference where you could choose patron groups to not send this e-mail to.

[Bug 34994] New: Consider translations in updatedatabase

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=34994 Bug ID: 34994 Summary: Consider translations in updatedatabase Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: unspecified Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: I18N/L10N Assignee: koha-bugs(a)lists.koha-community.org Reporter: caroline.cyr-la-rose(a)inlibro.com QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org CC: frederic(a)tamil.fr I wanted to open the discussion on this subject. Currently, when we insert things in the database using db_revs or updatedatabase, the strings are inserted in English. For a lot of things, like database structure changes and that type of stuff, it's fine. But for new letters, authorized values or additional content, it inserts in English no matter what the language of the installation is. That means that when we update Koha, we have to go in and translate all of those new things in the interface. We already translate the strings for new Koha installations through the translation of yaml files. I was wondering if it was somehow possible to use the yaml files and their translations to insert the new values? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

[Bug 36737] New: Use translations in db_rev

For most things, it doesn't really matter. But in the case of authorized values and letters in particular, this is problematic in installations that are not in English. >From what I understand, people who have non-English installations correct these in an ad hoc fashion, sometimes through SQL UPDATE statements and other times manually in the interface. Since all the terms used in db_revs are also included in the installer yaml files, and those are translated, we should find a way to reuse the translations. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

[Bug 20170] New: Clicking Reregistration Link Causes Enrollment Periods to Stack

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=20170 Bug ID: 20170 Summary: Clicking Reregistration Link Causes Enrollment Periods to Stack Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: 17.05 Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: Patrons Assignee: koha-bugs(a)lists.koha-community.org Reporter: cslone(a)camdencountylibrary.org QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org CC: gmcharlt(a)gmail.com, kyle.m.hall(a)gmail.com If you renew a patron's registration by using the 'Renew' link that is displayed after the expiration warning on the checkout screen, and you click said link more than once, the dateexpiry gets changed and extended a requisite number of times. In other words, if your enrollment period is two years and you double-click this link, the new expiration date will be end up being four years from today. If you triple click it, it will be 6 years. Quadruple click it for 8 years. (It's not possible to do this using the dropdown renewal option as it produces a dialogue box asking for the user to confirm the registration renewal.) To replicate: 1.) Create or select a patron category that has an enrollment period that is calculated in months (not a fixed date, for this example I use 24 months 2.) Find or create a patron in that category with an expired account 3.) Open this patron's account for checkout and find the warning about the patron's expired account 4.) Double click 'Renew' 5.) When the page reloads confirm that the expiration date is now 48 months from today (rather than the 24 dictated by the category enrollment period) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
