@Imani: Commenting out the test for preferred_name entirely causes some unexpected behavior if any preferred_names are set and then you change BorrowerUnwantedField to exclude preferred_name. In this case you will no longer be able to edit the preferred_name, and changing the patron's firstname will no change the preferred name,
This is odd because elsewhere in the patron record any value set in a field that gets hidden via BorrowerUnwantedField is saved forever and cannot be edited from the patron record. But following that behavior for preferred_name would cause problems for patrons who change their firstnames, as their preferred_name would not update --and as soon as firstname and preferred_name do not match, Koha starts displaying preferred_name around the intranet and OPAC. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
