https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=41649 Bug ID: 41649 Summary: Add support for setting the magnetic media flag for SIP in Koha Initiative type: --- Sponsorship --- status: Product: Koha Version: unspecified Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: SIP2 Assignee: koha-bugs(a)lists.koha-community.org Reporter: martin.renvoize(a)openfifth.co.uk QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org Bug 11351 added the ability to select a media type for SIP responses, however it didn't set the related 'magnetic' bit for SIP. We could hard code that based on media type, but it would be cleaner to allow configuration at the item type level. I'll post two patches here.. the first we've been running in production for around a decade and I thought I'd posted it years ago but can't find it.. the second making it more flexible. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

[Bug 41439] New: Column filtering on the circ rules table

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=41439 Bug ID: 41439 Summary: Column filtering on the circ rules table Initiative type: --- Sponsorship --- status: Product: Koha Version: Main Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: System Administration Assignee: koha-bugs(a)lists.koha-community.org Reporter: martin.renvoize(a)openfifth.co.uk QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org CC: gmcharlt(a)gmail.com The Circulation Rules table is obscenely wide at this point. We've tried a number of approaches to a new UI in this area, and so far all have got stuck. I'm proposing a smaller impact resolution of just having a set of column groups for display to allow limiting the width of the table to only those fields of interest at the moment you're working. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

[Bug 42080] New: Invoice PDFs are forced downloads

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=42080 Bug ID: 42080 Summary: Invoice PDFs are forced downloads Initiative type: --- Sponsorship --- status: Product: Koha Version: Main Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: Acquisitions Assignee: koha-bugs(a)lists.koha-community.org Reporter: ephetteplace(a)cca.edu QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org Our acquisitions technician preferred being able to view invoice PDFs directly in the browser, behavior which bug 41591 changed to prevent a SVG XSS attack. We would prefer if invoice-files.pl served files inline with a CSP header instead of forcing a download. Basically, replace -attachment => $file->{'file_name'} with 'Content-Security-Policy' => "default-src 'none'; script-src 'none';". Arguably, Koha could add an op=view here so we could use JS to change the current op=download links to op=view if other libraries do not want to view files inline. But my assumption is that what our staff want is popular; it's not just extra clicks to find the downloaded PDF but a context shift to a reader app outside the browser. A more involved solution would be using a condition to download SVGs but render other attachment types inline. I believe inferring mime type from file extension is fine in this context since a browser will not execute code in an SVG served with a PDF mimetype, so "malicious.svg.pdf" would not work. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

[Bug 41254] New: The filter for item status in item tables should be improved

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=41254 Bug ID: 41254 Summary: The filter for item status in item tables should be improved Initiative type: --- Sponsorship --- status: Product: Koha Version: Main Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: Staff interface Assignee: koha-bugs(a)lists.koha-community.org Reporter: mathsabypro(a)gmail.com QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org CC: gmcharlt(a)gmail.com In the table of items under a record, the filter on status created by Bug 37334 does not meet all the needs of a library because it groups together many different scenarios (in processing, on order, etc.) under a single status, "Not for loan." It is not possible to use this filter to isolate items on order, which is a frequent use case. I don't know what would be the best way to improve this filter. Perhaps we could add the different specific statuses provided for each value of notforloan<>0, prefixing them with "Not for loan" so that they appear close together - Excluded from loan (being processed) - Excluded from loan (on order) - Excluded from loan (non loanable itemtype) etc. And keep the global "Not for loan" renamed as "Not for loan (all reasons)". -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

[Bug 39128] New: When Modifying a record using a template in cataloguing there is no link back to the modified record

As it stands now you have to either run a new search, use the browser Back button or click through to the background jobs and then pick up the link to the record from there. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

[Bug 28357] New: E-mail Verification

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=28357 Bug ID: 28357 Summary: E-mail Verification Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: unspecified Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: Patrons Assignee: koha-bugs(a)lists.koha-community.org Reporter: cbrannon(a)cdalibrary.org QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org CC: gmcharlt(a)gmail.com, kyle.m.hall(a)gmail.com Dead e-mails are a pain to deal with. It would be great if e-mail notifications were verified, regardless of registering online or in person. If an e-mail address is entered by staff, Koha should have a flag to indicate if the address has been verified. When an account is saved or updated, it should check if an e-mail address has been entered. If so, if it has not been verified, it should send a verification e-mail to the address. When the patron receives it, they should have to click something or login to complete the verification. The address is marked in their account as verified. If the address is changed at all, they have to re-verify. Staff who receive notice that the e-mail has problems (dead, full, etc) should have a flag they can set on the account to mark the address as bad, and the reason why. The patron would then have to supply a new e-mail address and verify again. While the account is flagged with a bad e-mail, notifications to that address should be turned off. If they have another form of notification, Koha could send them a notification that the e-mail address they supplied is no longer working, and needs to be corrected. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

[Bug 42219] New: Patron verification process

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=42219 Bug ID: 42219 Summary: Patron verification process Initiative type: --- Sponsorship --- status: Product: Koha Version: Main Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: Patrons Assignee: koha-bugs(a)lists.koha-community.org Reporter: cbrannon(a)cdalibrary.org QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org CC: gmcharlt(a)gmail.com, kyle(a)bywatersolutions.com It would be helpful to libraries that strive to have accurate information on file to have an option, when creating a new patron, to have the entered information pop up on a clean modal displaying the information for the patron to review (we turn our monitor around for the patron to review). It would be great if everything fit on a modal cleanly and easily readable. It would also be great if there was an option for patrons to check next to each entry (or specified entries) to confirm the information is correct. Maybe you want them to look over everything, but only need them to verify that their phone number and email are correct. So, what would be ideal is: * Global/Branch level preferences * Preference to turn patron review on * Preference to indicate what information should be reviewed * Preference to indicate what information should be confirmed with a checkbox * Preference to indicate that when the confirmed items with a checkbox are changed by staff and the record saved, a modal with just that information will come up for that patron to confirm again. If the checkbox items are not changed on later changes, no modal confirmation is required. When the patron review is turned on, and the patron account is created and saved, before the form is submitted, the modal will come up with the requested items for review. I hope that makes sense. I think this would be helpful in some workflows. I know it would be in ours. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. You are watching all bug changes.

Step 1 Koha already does, but I am curious if Koha could do steps 2 and 3? How do we verify an email ? First it checks for email address format. Then make sure that domain name is valid. We also check whether it’s a disposable email address or not. In the final step, It extracts the MX records from the domain records and connects to the email server (over SMTP and also simulates sending a message) to make sure the mailbox really exists for that user/address. Some mail servers do not cooperate in the process, in such cases, the result of this email verification tool may not be as accurate as expected. The tool itself limits you to 5 checks per hour. There is a premium plan, and also an API. Only 5 lookups per hour, in free plan. Upgrade to our premium plan or use the API. This would be a great tool when creating a patron record. With the way it is worded, I don't know if the API is free to use, but if not, I'm wondering if we could incorporate the same methods in Koha? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

[Bug 23681] New: Patron restrictions should be user definable

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=23681 Bug ID: 23681 Summary: Patron restrictions should be user definable 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: andrew.isherwood(a)ptfs-europe.com QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org CC: gmcharlt(a)gmail.com, kyle.m.hall(a)gmail.com Currently the patron restrictions are hard coded as enums in borrower_debarments.type, the available values are 'SUSPENSION','OVERDUES','MANUAL','DISCHARGE'. We (PTFS Europe) have a customer requirement to: - Provide a select box when adding a patron restriction containing user defined values for restriction types, the user defined values should be defined as authorised values - Ensure a default value if no restriction type is selected - Allow the name of the default value to be modifiable - Ensure that if a restriction type authorised value is removed, any restrictions that use it should revert to the default value - Make the selection of restriction type optional via a syspref Currently, at the DB level, the default value is 'MANUAL'. The plan is to: DB MIGRATION ------------ - Add authorised_value_categories row for 'PATRON_RESTRICTIONS' - Add authorised_values.core, default value 0 - Implies AV cannot be deleted and authorised_values.authorised_value cannot be changed - Add new borrower_debarments.debarment_type column - Select distinct values from borrower_debarments.type - For each $value: - Create AV rows: - authorised_values.authorised_value = $value - authorised_values.lib = $value - authorised_values.core = 1 - ** Note id of each new row, associated with $value - update borrower_debarments.debarment_type to be appropriate AV id - Remove borrower_debarments.type OTHER STUFF ----------- - AV UI (and anything else that can bring about AV modification), should respect "core" - Modify Patron::Debarments appropriate functions to abstract underlying changes i.e. we maintain backward compatibility with the way they currently work, we just obfuscate the fact that the "type" comes from a different table - Overload AuthorisedValue::delete to allow us to call optional functions after delete - in a sane world this would be a trigger. This will allow us to set appropriate patron_debarments.debarment_type rows to default value upon AV deletion -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
