[Koha-devel] System preference question

[Mark Tompsett]

Greetings,

I was looking at Bug 9580, and came across the non-problem of non-existent system preferences. That is, the system preference does not exist in the systempreferences table, but that didn’t stop me from creating it on the fly when I set the system preference in the staff client, because the .pref file had been modified and updating it created the missing system preference, and it did not cause any difficulties in actually testing.

Should all system preferences be in syspref.sql?
Should all system preferences be created in updatedatabase.pl?
Or are there exceptions like this one, where it just works?

On a related note there is a Wiki page that should reflect this consensus I’m trying to find.

GPML,
Mark Tompsett
