For as long as I've been working with Koha the default OPAC theme has had a form for specifying beginning and ending dates for reserves. I don't think that has ever served any purpose. As far as I can tell those values don't get used anywhere. Can anyone confirm or deny this? I'd like to get those form fields out of the OPAC if they're not being used. -- Owen ---- Web Developer Nelsonville Public Library http://www.athenscounty.lib.oh.us
Owen, do you mean that beginning or ending dates are never used in the code? I recall seeing those variables addressed somewhere, but I don't remember where (nor in what version). It seems to me that these dates would be useful. If I want to reserve a book but am going on vacation for three weeks and don't want to get the book until I get back, then the beginning date for the reserve is useful. On the other hand, if I need the book for a class and don't want to get it after the class is over, then an ending date is also useful. Stephen Owen Leonard said:
