Description Barton Chittenden 2014-06-02 13:47:35 UTC
When logged in to OPAC as anonymous patron (as set in AnonymousPatron syspref), I can navigate to 'Your reading history' (... cgi-bin/koha/opac-readingrecord.pl) and see items that have been checked out.

Clicking on 'your privacy' (... cgi-bin/koha/opac-privacy.pl), then clicking on 'immediate deletion' and 'OK' results in the message 'Your reading history has been deleted.', But when I navigate back to the reading history page, items have not been deleted, even when I refresh the page.

I was able to delete the search history when logged in as the patron with borrowernumber 1.

User permissions are the same for borrowernumber 1 and the anonymous patron (borrower number 39969).

mysql> select * from user_permissions where borrowernumber='39969';                                                                                           
Empty set (0.00 sec)

Is this report specific to 3.14.x? If it is valid in master, please mark it as
such.

Still valid.
But the behavior is the expected one: When you delete a checkout history you actually anonymise the checkout history :)

On bug 11009 we decided not to display the checkout history on the staff interface. Maybe we should do the same at the OPAC?

Hi Brian, Can you detail what you expect from this?

I would say this qualifies as a WONTFIX. :-)
