[Bug 32940] New: [Bug 30280 follow-up] Subject-heading-thesaurus-conventions search field missing in Zebra

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=32940 Bug ID: 32940 Summary: [Bug 30280 follow-up] Subject-heading-thesaurus-conventions search field missing in Zebra Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: master Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: major Priority: P2 Component: MARC Authority data support Assignee: koha-bugs(a)lists.koha-community.org Reporter: januszop(a)gmail.com QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org CC: frank.hansen(a)ub.lu.se, katrin.fischer(a)bsz-bw.de In the bug 30280 a new searchfield Subject-heading-thesaurus-conventions has been introduced for ElasticSearch (indexing 040 $f of an authority record). This searchfield is used in C4::Heading::_search with an alias thesaurus-conventions (introduced with the same bug and defined only in Koha/SearchEngine/Elasticsearch/QueryBuilder.pm). At the same time, neither Subject-heading-thesaurus-conventions nor thesaurus-conventions are defined for Zebra. As a result, while performing a linking (with link_bibs_to_authorities.pl for instance) of a biblio 6XX field with 2nd indicator == 7 and proper $2 (e.g. 650 _7 $a Ekonomia $2 DBN) with Zebra engine we get: error: Unsupported Use attribute (114) thesaurus-conventions Bib-1 On the other hand, according to the stable Zebra configuration (for 15 years or so) Koha inserts 040 $f into the Subject-heading-thesaurus index, as goes there 008/11 byte, transformed in the following way: a => lcsh b => lcac c => mesh d => nal k => cash n => notapplicable r => aat s => sears v => rvm So, maybe ES should go the same way? If for some reasons no, the Koha part should be modified accordingly. It seems that changes made in Koha in favour of the ES should always be very carefully checked in Zebra context... Now the linking feature in Zebra does not work in most cases (also described in the bug 32916). Seeing the comment at https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=30280#c58, I understand that the enhancement is still not mature enough. So, I am wondering that it has been accepted in the released version (22.11.00)... Was this not by mistake? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

However, recently I've had cases where about half the patrons did not have email addresses in their accounts. This means that I either set everyone's preferences and the library has to go back and remove the preferences from the patrons without email addresses, or I don't do it, and the library has to set the preferences for those with email addresses. (I think I've had back-to-back cases like this because in their old system it was set up as if the patron has an email address, they get the email notices, and if they want to opt-out, they remove their email address from their account.) It would be great if the script could skip the patrons without email addresses. (Note : we never set SMS messages by default, only email; I don't know if someone does this, but it is not a requirement for us to manage sms messaging with this script.) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

When entering the user's set library in the search field, search results won't narrow down because they include the active selection in the Allowed pickup locations column which by default is the user's set Library. Filtering by user's own library would be one of the common usages for the search field when placing a hold on a specific item, so it would have more usability if it could be fixed.

Currently, the system preference does not list a Brazilian locale. Brazilian libraries using Koha are forced to select the US (amazon.com) or another locale, which results in a low cover image match rate for Brazilian Portuguese editions, as our editions often differ significantly from those listed in other Amazon stores. Including amazon.com.br would significantly improve the accuracy of cover images displayed on the OPAC and Staff Interface for libraries operating in Brazil and potentially other Portuguese-speaking countries, enhancing the value of the Enhanced Content feature for this region. Thank you for considering this enhancement. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

[Bug 35145] New: Add ability to order patron attributes

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=35145 Bug ID: 35145 Summary: Add ability to order patron attributes Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: unspecified Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: OPAC Assignee: oleonard(a)myacpl.org Reporter: caroline.cyr-la-rose(a)inlibro.com QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org Right now, patron attributes are presented in code order. It would be nice to have a way to choose the order in which they are presented. I put this in OPAC because I noticed this in the self-registration form. But I guess it would be true for the staff interface too. My actual use case was for birth details of a baby. I had the birthdate, the number of weeks and the number of days of pregnancy, the weight of the baby, the surname of the baby, etc. I had specifically added them in the order I wanted because I thought the creation order would be the display order. But they were displayed in code order, and the order made no sense (file number, number of days of pregnancy, birth date of the baby, surname of the baby, weight at birth, number of weeks of pregnancy). I thought something like a "Display order" field like the ones we have in serial patterns and numbering and in the additional contents would be useful. To recreate: 1. Create several patron attributes with various codes 1.1. Go to Administration > Patron attribute types > New patron attribute type 1.2. Fill out the form - Code: enter any code, for example WEIGHT - Description: enter any description - Display in OPAC: check - Editable in OPAC: check 1.3. Click Save 1.4. Repeat to add a second code with a code alphabetically "before" the previous one, for example SURNAME 1.5. Optionnally, add more to really view the order 2. Enable self-registration 2.1. Go to Administration > System preferences 2.2. Search for selfreg 2.3. Set PatronSelfRegistration to Allow 2.4. Set a category in PatronSelfRegistrationDefaultCategory 2.5. Click Save all OPAC preferences 3. View self-registration form 3.1. Go to the OPAC 3.2. Click on Don't have an account? Register here. 3.3. Go to the bottom of the form --> Note that the patron attribute fields are presented in alphabetical order of the code. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
