[Bug 28814] New: Messaging preference for renewals
https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=28814 Bug ID: 28814 Summary: Messaging preference for renewals Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: master Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: Notices Assignee: koha-bugs@lists.koha-community.org Reporter: andrew@bywatersolutions.com QA Contact: testopia@bugs.koha-community.org In bug 18532 we add a messaging preference for the auto_renew notice. It would be good to do the same for the regular renewal notice. Right now, patrons get a renewal notice if the RenewalSendNotice syspref is on and the patron is signed up for CHECKOUT notices, with RENEWAL just following the CHECKOUT preference. That assumption -- that if one wants a CHECKOUT notice one must also want a RENEWAL notice -- is both spurious and largely undocumented. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

So at least we're telling people there what it means. But I'd still prefer a separate preference. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

We only just noticed this recently, because we are now using messagebee, and they handle both the RENEWAL and AUTORENEW notices as the same thing, so it really looks like a duplicate notice. Emails had different wording, so it wasn't as obvious. I assume the workaround is to have patrons choose between getting all three notices (checkin, checkout, renewal) or just autorenewals? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
