Description Lucas Gass 2022-02-24 15:37:14 UTC
To recreate:

1 - Define default messaging preferences for a patron category
2 - Go into an existing account and change the patron category to the one set in step 1.
3. Confirm that the messaging prefs have been reset to that of the default patron category 

There should be a warning to staff that messaging prefs are being changed.

I am sorry, patch applied, restart_all and did a couple of reloads... but I can't get the warning to trigger. :(

Not sure if this is also a separate bug: When the defaults are changed, the digest option although added for the patron category is not checked.

The age warning might also upset things a bit, but I tried without that and still no luck.

Testing in Firefox on Ubuntu.
Comment 4 Katrin Fischer 2022-03-06 14:26:05 UTC
Sometimes... as soon as I had sent my comment, it started working. Including the digest option.
Comment 5 Katrin Fischer 2022-03-06 14:30:58 UTC
Ok, this is the thing:

* Updated setting for patron category staff, checking Item due with digest.
* Apply patch, reload and restart all the things.
* Edit 'Nicole Schneider'
* Set patron category to 'staff'
* Accept changes to default with OK
* Verify: The digest option appears checked, but greyed out.
* Save
* Edit patron again - the digest option is not set

I'll file this as a new bug, as it happens without the patch set too :(

Passing QA here meanwhile.
