https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=35977 Bug ID: 35977 Summary: Display current date in Hold starts on date on opac-reserve Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: master Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: minor Priority: P5 - low Component: Hold requests Assignee: koha-bugs@lists.koha-community.org Reporter: mirjam.vantieghem@etf.edu QA Contact: testopia@bugs.koha-community.org CC: gmcharlt@gmail.com This is related to bug #15652. If you enable AllowHoldDateInFuture (and its OPAC variant), you get an additional "Hold starts on date". It is possible to select the current date from the datepicker in the OPAC. If no date is selected, the default is the current date. However, it is not clear to the patron that the current date is selected by default, as the field is empty if no date has been selected from the datepicker. This caused confusion among some of our patrons. Therefore we use a custom patch to have the current date shown in the field "Hold starts on date". What Marcel de Rooy wrote in the related bug, also applies here: "Although it does not really make any difference if you leave the startdate empty or put the current date in it, we concluded that it still makes a psychological difference." -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
