I've been working on cleaning up these codes as a first step towards other improvements in this area.. 

There are a few bugs still in the NSO stages and I think it would be really beneficial to keep that tree moving forward as we're now in a half and half state in master (and thus 19.05 if we don't push these through).. Any help with the following bugs would be gratefully received.

Bug 22563 - Convert lost handling to use 'status' instead of multiple accounttypes
Bug 11573 - Fine descriptions related to Rentals are untranslatable
Bug 6759 - Use a different account type for account renewals than for new accounts
Bug 22610 - SIP Payment Types should be moved out of accountype

My hope is to get these one's in now to clear the way for working on resurrecting "Bug 17702 - Create configuration for account types" during the next cycle

Many thanks,

Hi Katrin,

 

I don’t understand your email. My suggestion would yield support for different languages (for anything using Template Toolkit templates). As far as I understand, that’s how we currently provide internationalization support in Koha. Am I missing something?

 

Admittedly, I haven’t done much with the REST API yet, but I assume that the API would just deal with codes? And if we were calling the API from the OPAC, we’d just use templates that rely on the codes.

Hi all,

please keep in mind that 'translated' doesn't mean into one language, but should allow for supporting different languages at the same time, especially if those descriptions were to be used for APIs as well.

I was pondering this yesterday as well.

 

I figure a lookup table in the database that contains the code and a description (for reporting and administration purposes), but use translatable strings in templates using the code as hooks.

Whatever they are changed to needs to be translatable.

 

Agreed. I suspect that the trade-offs between 'We would like this to be translatable' and 'we need these values to be un-editable' (I.e. not authorized values) are probably what's kept things as they are.
