[Bug 19171] New: Confusing message "no items available" on the holds page
https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=19171 Bug ID: 19171 Summary: Confusing message "no items available" on the holds page Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: master Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: minor Priority: P5 - low Component: OPAC Assignee: oleonard@myacpl.org Reporter: katrin.fischer@bsz-bw.de QA Contact: testopia@bugs.koha-community.org When there are no items available to be placed on hold, the hold page in the OPAC reads for example: Sorry, none of these items can be placed on hold. No items available. To the patron this is confusing: - the record has items, but they are not showing (none of these...?) - the record may well have available items that are not shown, as a lot of libraries don't allow holds on items that are available. I think we could improve this already by rephrasing the message a bit. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

Because this one actually talks about items - the one above only appears now when you try to place a hold on multiple records. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

(We could still improve on holds :) Note that imo we do not need the multi_hold param in opac-reserve. If you have one title, 'none of these titles' is still true. And on the other hand, if you have two titles, we actually do not need the top level none_available message at all. We still see multiple lines with There are no items that can be placed on hold.

I know this bug is closed. Adding this as information for others who may come across a similar situation: Test: logged into your account on Koha, search the catalogue for a title, forgetting that you already have a hold on it, and then try to place a hold on that title, the message that comes up is: "There are no items that can be placed on hold." No indication why not. This exists in versions up to 20.11 -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
