Description Melia Meggs 2012-10-24 19:42:57 UTC
Created attachment 13026 [details]
screenshot of "clear date" link

On the item details, on the holds tab, beside each hold there is "Suspend until" with a box for the date.  Beside the date, there is a "Clear date" link.  (See attached screenshot.)

It would be helpful if, when clicking the "Clear date" link, Koha would ask if you want to sustain the hold indefinitely, or if you want to unsuspend, or cancel.

Right now, the "Clear Date" link could be clicked by mistake, and the suspend until date could be accidentally lost.  Or you might clear the date thinking that this would end the suspension, but it won't.  It will just suspend the hold forever.

The patch for bug 11694 changes the wording to "Clear date to suspend indefinitely" on the Bootstrap OPAC, and I think it makes sense to adopt this for the staff side.

Still valid?
