https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=39560 --- Comment #1 from Janusz Kaczmarek <januszop@gmail.com> --- Created attachment 180619 --> https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/attachment.cgi?id=180619&action=edit Bug 39560: For authorities, hidded fields (but present in the record) will be lost when editing and saving such a record If a subfield is present in the authority record, but this subfield is marked as 'Hide all', then if you edit and save such a record, the data from hidden fields wil be lost forever. This behavior differs from bibliographic records editor, when even if a subfield is hidden (not active) in the editor it will be activated and present in the editor if present in the record. The problem affect above all records imported from external agencies. Test plan: ========== 1. Have any authority record. Note one present subfield (e.g. 100 $d). 2. Modify the record framework for this type of record (/cgi-bin/koha/admin/authtypes.pl), marking the subfield 'Hide all'. 3. Open the record in the editor and save. 4. Re-enable the subfield in the framework, marking it as 'Show all' now. 5. Reopen the record in the editor. Note that the previous content of the subfield you played with is gone. Enter any new value and save. 6. Apply the patch ; restart all. 7. Repeat p. 2, i.e. hide the subfield again. Open the record in the editor. You should see the content of the hidden field as you would for a bibliographic record with a subfield hidden in the editor but present in a record. (Note also that the content of this subfield is visible in record view). 8. Open the editor with an empty record (New authority) of the type in question. Control that the subfield is hidden (not accessible) for a new record. BTW Note that the "hidden" but present subfields are visible in OPAC, but not in the staff interface *before* applying the patch. The patch changes nothing for OPAC. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
