Adding Opac-SearchHistory feature
Enables ppl to store their search history and delete the whole history
Adding Storable required by Opac-Search-History
Signed-off-by: Galen Charlton <gmcharlt@gmail.com>
It adds the possibility for users to store their search queries. It's possible for both logged users and anonymous users. More than that, if an anonymous user with a search history log in, the whole anonymous history is loaded and stored as the user search history.
Isn't there any privacy problems with this feature? I mean, if user_1 do some search as an anonymous user, and then user_2 go on the same computer and log in, the whole user_1 search history is saved into user_2 search history.
This behaviour has been reported as a bug by some BibLibre customers, that's why I ask.
I can see it as a bug, in that you get history that isnt yours. But since there is no way to know who it was .. I don't think it is a privacy issue. Unless you are standing behind someone watching them search so know who it was before you anyway :-) Chris
