Running with add serials items on and MARC21, there appears to be no difference between the Full and Simplified view for Serials. I remember this being a nice little feature, but possibly has been superseded by new serials subscriptions module?

Quick view is displayed on subscription page. Since it had to do with subscriptionhistory table.
And if you select Simple View, on OPAC, you will have simple view displayed first.

Hi Henri, 

It looks to me like there are 3 system preferences that are supposed to do similar things but none are working. 

The 3 sys prefs that seem to all do the same thing are:

OPACDisplayExtendedSubInfo	 If ON, extended subscription information is displayed in the OPAC  	 OFF  	Edit  	Delete

OPACSubscriptionDisplay	Specify how to display subscription information in the OPAC 	economical 	Edit 	Delete

SubscriptionHistory	Define the display preference for serials issue history in OPAC 	simplified 	Edit 	Delete

If I change any of these values, there is no change to the Search Results view or the Subscription tab in the Item detail page within the OPAC.

Hi All,

'SubscriptionHistory' looks to be the only syspref that is cuurently being used
 by serials.


 'OPACDisplayExtendedSubInfo' and  'OPACSubscriptionDisplay' dont look  to be referred to by any serials code yet.

This bug should be resolved before the 3.0 beta. Re-assigning to Ryan.

Mason's right, OPACDisplayExtendedSubInfo isn't used in the code currently, but I swear it was at one point. I'm bumping this to rel_3_2.

I think this needs some investigation about which sysprefs are still available and which views we have now. Lowering severity.
Comment 2 Katrin Fischer 2012-04-02 18:03:48 UTC
OPACDisplayExtendedSubInfo and OPACSubscriptionDisplay don't exist on current master and are not referenced in the code.

SubscriptionHistory seems to be only referenced from 2 templates:

http://localhost:8080/cgi-bin/koha/serials/serial-issues.pl?biblionumber=1

This template seems currently not to be used in serials. It's not linked to.

and

http://localhost/cgi-bin/koha/opac-serial-issues.pl?biblionumber=100&selectview=small

The system preference seems to work there. It changes which view is preselected when you click on 'more details' on the subscription tab in OPAC.

When showing the subscription information for a biblio, show ______ of the serial issues. 

- 'a summary' preselects 'Brief history'
- 'a full list' preselects 'Full History'

I suggest to change the wording of the syspref to make it more clear what will happen:

When showing the subscription information for a bibliographic record, preselect [brief history|full history] view of the serial issues.

[SIGNED-OFF] Bug 1662: Is there a difference between Full and Simplified for Serials History

Changes description of system preference SubscriptionHistory:

When showing the subscription information for a bibliographic record,
preselect [brief history|full history] view of the serial issues.

To test:
1) Verify new description shows in system preference editor (tab serials)
2) Verify description is correct (OPAC > Subscription tab > more details)
