https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=23473 Bug ID: 23473 Summary: Allow passwords to be imported/overwritten using the patron import tool Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: master Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: Command-line Utilities Assignee: koha-bugs@lists.koha-community.org Reporter: wizzyrea@gmail.com QA Contact: testopia@bugs.koha-community.org CC: robin@catalyst.net.nz Scenario: A library would like to import/overwrite all patrons with their passwords from another centralised system. Currently they cannot do this and overwrite the passwords, because Koha assumes that the passwords are coming in already hashed and thus should not be overwritten. It would be good to optionally allow the UI patron import tool and command line importer to overwrite user passwords. Personal note: I want to make it clear that I am personally aware of the user experience ramifications of unexpectedly changing a password on a user - it's not a nice thing to do to users. I know that there could be situations where the user has changed the password, or requested such a change, and then that user's explicit choice gets overwritten by this process. This bug is only meant to allow functionality that libraries are currently, or have in the past, done. This feature should 100% be optional, by tickbox in the UI and flag on the command line importer. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
