We could add a system preference that allows one to configure which hold statuses to count toward limits. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

[Bug 42569] New: Refactor Koha::Biblio->get_coins to use MetadataExtractor

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=42569 Bug ID: 42569 Summary: Refactor Koha::Biblio->get_coins to use MetadataExtractor Initiative type: --- Sponsorship --- status: Product: Koha Version: Main Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: Architecture, internals, and plumbing Assignee: koha-bugs(a)lists.koha-community.org Reporter: tomascohen(a)gmail.com QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org Depends on: 42567 Koha::Biblio->get_coins contains inline MARC parsing that extracts authors, title, ISBN, ISSN, publisher, year, and pages from the record in a flavor-dependent way (MARC21 vs UNIMARC) to build a COinS/OpenURL string. This should be refactored to use the MetadataExtractor pattern: - Add extraction methods for the fields get_coins needs (authors, title, publication info, host record info) - Simplify get_coins to call the extractor and assemble the OpenURL string This is a larger refactoring than the single-field extractions (OCLC, UPC, EAN) since get_coins extracts multiple fields with conditional logic based on leader values. Depends on Bug 42567.

[Bug 35693] New: Granular Permissions to Everything

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=35693 Bug ID: 35693 Summary: Granular Permissions to Everything Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: master Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: System Administration 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 I don't know exactly how to file this. Koha is growing all the time and new features are always being added, but they are often being added with very little permission granularity. Often the permissions are too broad. For example, the newer pages under additional-contents.pl is under the entire umbrella of one permission for the user, and gives them access to ALL pages, ALL news, and ALL HTML customizations. I am hoping that Koha will start thinking more about roles in the library, and allowing us to give specific people access to specific pages, customizations, etc. This goes even further with who can override things. We don't have a lot of control over who can do what specific things. Maybe there is a bug on this topic already? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

Now, it's throwing a 500 error. The only way to fix it is in the backend. It would be nice if Koha could automatically remove invalid metadata/characters. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes. You are the assignee for the bug.
