[Bug 35484] New: OPACShelfBrowser secondary sort should be biblio.title not item.itemnumber

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=35484 Bug ID: 35484 Summary: OPACShelfBrowser secondary sort should be biblio.title not item.itemnumber Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: master Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: OPAC Assignee: oleonard(a)myacpl.org Reporter: lucas(a)bywatersolutions.com QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org The OPACShelfBrowser sorts on cn_sort but also includes a secondary sort on itemnumber. This secondary sort is arbitrary and unhelpful, libraries typically don't arrange things on the shelf based on Koha's itemnumber. This secondary sort should be based on title to better refelct how libraries organize shelves. To recreate: 1. In k-t-d, set all item itemcallnumbers to the same thing, ie: 'abcdefg'; 2. Touch all items to update the cn_sort values 3. Turn on OPACShelfBrowser and view a record detail page on the OPAC. 4. Browse the shelf and see that all items are organized by itemnumber. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

[Bug 42504] New: Remove totalissues from stored MARC, embed at index time
by bugzilla-daemon＠bugs.koha-community.org 04 Sep '26

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=42504 Bug ID: 42504 Summary: Remove totalissues from stored MARC, embed at index time 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 ## Problem update_totalissues.pl can run for 4+ hours on large installations. The root cause is that totalissues is stored in the MARC record (942$0), requiring the full ModBiblio pipeline per biblio: MARC XML deserialization, field update, serialization, TransformMarcToKoha, DB updates, search engine reindexing, cataloguing log entries, plugin hooks, OAI sets updates. The existing UpdateTotalIssuesOnCirc syspref provides real-time updates on checkout but is disabled by default because it triggers this same expensive ModBiblio pipeline on every checkout. Bug 36474 improved things by skipping unchanged records, but every changed record still pays the full cost. ## Proposal Stop storing totalissues in the MARC record. Instead: 1. UpdateTotalIssues becomes a lightweight DB-only operation: just UPDATE biblioitems SET totalissues = ? WHERE biblionumber = ? plus queue a search index update. No MARC parsing, no ModBiblio. 2. Inject 942$0 at index time via Koha::Biblio::metadata_record: Add an embed_total_issues parameter (following the existing embed_items pattern). Both search engine indexers call metadata_record to get the MARC before indexing. The value gets injected from biblioitems.totalissues on the fly, just like items are embedded today. The stored MARC in biblio_metadata stays clean. Both the ES indexer (_get_record) and Zebra's rebuild_zebra.pl -d (which already pre-processes records before sending to Zebra) would pass this flag. 3. UpdateTotalIssuesOnCirc becomes cheap enough to enable by default: A DB column update plus a reindex queue entry per checkout is trivial. The Elasticsearch indexer already batches indexing tasks efficiently. 4. update_totalissues.pl is simplified: It recalculates biblioitems.totalissues from statistics/items data and triggers batch reindexing. It no longer touches MARC records at all. It should also gain a --commit option to control batch sizes for the reindex step. ## Expected impact - Real-time totalissues updates on checkout with negligible performance cost - update_totalissues.pl runtime reduced from hours to minutes (DB updates + batch reindex vs per-record ModBiblio) - No more MARC record churn for a derived counter value - Reduced action_logs noise (no cataloguing log entries for counter updates) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

[Bug 42264] New: Ungrouping holds or grouping existing holds requires top-line reserveforothers permission

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=42264 Bug ID: 42264 Summary: Ungrouping holds or grouping existing holds requires top-line reserveforothers permission Initiative type: --- Sponsorship --- status: Product: Koha Version: 25.11 Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: minor Priority: P5 - low Component: Hold requests Assignee: koha-bugs(a)lists.koha-community.org Reporter: sbrown(a)bywatersolutions.com QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org CC: gmcharlt(a)gmail.com, lisette(a)bywatersolutions.com, tomascohen(a)gmail.com While staff with the place_holds permission (and no other permissions from reserveforothers) *can* create a hold group by selecting multiple bibs in search results and choosing the 'Treat as hold group' option on the 'Place holds' screen, they cannot create a hold group from existing 'standard' holds or ungroup a hold group. Grouping existing holds and ungrouping holds requires the top-line reserveforothers permission, but it should either be part of place_holds or be a separate permission so that staff needn't also have alter_hold_targets and modify_holds_priority in order to use hold groups. To replicate the error with creation: -Use a staff patron account with only the place_holds permission from the reserveforothers group -Create 2 or more standard holds for another patron -In the regular patron's account, select the standard holds and click 'Group holds' -On the modal, click 'Group' -Note the error message: "Authorization failure. Missing required permission(s)." To replicate the problem with ungrouping: -Find/create a patron with a group hold using a staff account with top-line reserveforothers permission -Sign in using a staff patron account with only the place_holds permission from reserveforothers -Go to the regular patron account where the group hold was placed -Click the number in the 'Hold group' column, then select 'Ungroup holds' from the modal -Note that the modal disappears with no error message, but the hold has not been ungrouped -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
