https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=40791 Bug ID: 40791 Summary: Allow choice of which Overdue messages can be patron preferences Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: Main Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: Circulation Assignee: koha-bugs(a)lists.koha-community.org Reporter: philip.orr(a)lmscloud.de QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org CC: gmcharlt(a)gmail.com, kyle(a)bywatersolutions.com In Bug 30515, we are discussing adding a new system preference UsePatronPreferencesForOverdueNotices to let patrons control which overdue messages are sent by mail in their messaging preferences. For many libraries it would still be necessary to set a certain overdue notice (say the third overdue notice) as "mandatory for print message". Jonathan suggested to reuse the aforementioned pref and make it multivaluated with 3 values possible: ODUE, ODUE2, ODUE3. Then: - if at least one is selected then patrons can edit it/them - if none selected, we don't allow the patrons to modify any This would be the simplest way to extend the functionality of Bug 30515. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=41133 Bug ID: 41133 Summary: Suggestions table sharing localStorage for all tabs can prevent records from loading Initiative type: --- Sponsorship --- status: Product: Koha Version: Main Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P5 - low Component: Acquisitions Assignee: koha-bugs(a)lists.koha-community.org Reporter: blawlor(a)clamsnet.org QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org On suggestion.pl the local storage DataTables_acqui_suggestions_suggestions which saves the state for pagination is shared for all tabs, which can cause tabs to load with a bad state and fail to load records. To recreate: 1. Use ktd --dbshell to add a bunch of random suggestions with different statuses: INSERT INTO suggestions (suggestedby, suggesteddate, title, status) SELECT borrowernumber, '2025-10-29', firstname, ELT(0.5 + RAND() *6, 'ASKED', 'CHECKED', 'ACCEPTED', 'REJECTED', 'ORDERED', 'AVAILABLE' ) from borrowers; 2. If you are lucky you will have one tab with more than 20 records and one with less than 20, if not use the ui to adjust the statuses so that you do 3. Click on a tab with more than 20 records 4. Click Next > to go to the second page 5. Notice in local storage now DataTables_acqui_suggestions_suggestions.start is now 20 6. Click on a tab with fewer than 20 records 7. Notice the table says something illogical like: Showing 21 to 11 of 11 entries 8. And no records load :( 9. Click <<First to fix the pagination issue 10. Notice DataTables_acqui_suggestions_suggestions.start is now 0 again 11. The table loads with records :) Showing 1 to 11 of 11 entries -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. You are watching all bug changes.

[Bug 41049] New: Add additional deleting capabilities to the cataloging macros

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=41049 Bug ID: 41049 Summary: Add additional deleting capabilities to the cataloging macros Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: unspecified Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: Cataloging Assignee: koha-bugs(a)lists.koha-community.org Reporter: maxeinergl(a)gcc.edu QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org CC: m.de.rooy(a)rijksmuseum.nl It would be helpful to have syntax added to the Advanced Editor's cataloging macros for the following: 1) ability to delete fields based on indicator 2) ability to delete subfields on all instances of a field, not just the first instance of the subfield / first instance of the field. A use case scenario would be importing records from Z39.50 sources and using a macro to strip fields/subfields that are always unwanted. Deleting fields based on indicator would allow one to strip subjects from unwanted thesauri, for example 650 _1... for a juvenile SH or 650 _2 for MESH. Deleting subfields on all instances would allow one to strip coded and linking subfields from authorized heading fields. Sometimes the same subfield repeats in the same instance of the field (for example, multiple $4's in a 100 field), and sometimes a field number has multiple instances (for example, multiple 650 fields, all with $0 linking subfields). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

[Bug 41674] New: Add template plugin for linking to system preferences based on user permission

I propose to add a template plugin which handles the permission check. [% "RequireChoosingExistingAuthority" | html | $LinkPref %] For a user with 'CAN_user_parameters_manage_sysprefs' permission it outputs: <a class="link_preference" href="admin/preferences.pl?op=search&ok=Search&searchfield=RequireChoosingExistingAuthority">RequireChoosingExistingAuthority</a> For a user without permission it outputs: <span class="link_preference">RequireChoosingExistingAuthority</span> -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

[Bug 32196] New: One should be able to remove a borrower relationship whenever one exists

When that happens, the patron edit screen does not show one the relationship and therefore the relationship cannot be removed. One should *always* be able to remove an existing relationship. To recreate: 1: have a patron category where CanBeGuarantee is set to Yes. 2: Create a patron in that category, give them a guarantor 3: edit the patron category to set CanBeGuarantee to No 4: confirm your patron still has a guarantor that shows on the details page, but the guarantor no longer shows on the edit screen 5: this means the guarantor cannot be removed :( Referenced Bugs: https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=12446 [Bug 12446] Enable an adult to have a guarantor -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

So, if they have this option checked, they would get a notice at the end of the day, or beginning, that would contain any hold, overdue, predue, etc notices. So, if this is checked, instead of queuing up for the regular cron, maybe the notice is sent in a new cron that is once a day. If done, it might also be beneficial to note on the parton's notifications how the notification was queued (right away/daily). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

[Bug 33374] New: Holds captured at different branch when pickup branch has a copy on shelf can create long wait times for patrons

Have a multibranch system where holds can transfer between 2 or more libraries 2. Have a bib with 2 or more items at different branches. 3. At Branch A checkout Branch A's copy of the item to a patron 4. At Branch B place a record level hold for a Branch B patron (where branch b has a copy of the item available on the shelf) 5. Return Branch A's book at Branch A. It fills the hold for Branch B patron In some cases this makes the patron wait much longer for a hold. It would be great if there was a way to set holds not to fill from other libraries if there was a copy available at the pickup location. Some consortiums have branches that only get deliveries once or twice a week. If they happen to check in an item that could be filled at the pickup branch before the pickup branch scans the hold there, it could take much longer for the patron to get the item.
