Implementing a new system preference to allow libraries to choose if they want personal patron information such as phone number, email, address and city from being displayed in the circulation page for privacy reasons.

Bug 21121 - Added new system preference to control hiding of personal patron information in the circulation page

Libraries may want to hide personal patron data from the circulation
page for privacy reasons this syspref introduces that ability for
library staff to control the display of this data themselves without
having to ask support vendors to hide it for them.

Test plan:
1. View circulation page and input a patrons barcode or name
2. Notice if the patron has a phone number, email, street address and
city set then these are displayed in the left hand side of the screen
under the patrons name. Otherwise if all/any of these fields are not set
for the patron then the text: "No <datafield> stored." is displayed.
3. Apply this patch
4. Run ./updatedatabase.pl from the Koha shell to run the atomicupdate
5. Restart memcached and plack
6. Notice a new systempreference named
'HidePersonalPatronDetailOnCirculation' has been added, which has the
default value 'Dont'
7. Without changing the default value notice the personal patron
information is still displayed on the circulation page
8. Change the value of the syspref to 'Do' and now notice the phone
number, email address, street address and city are now hidden in the
circulation page

Thanks Martin!
Comment 10 Jonathan Druart 2018-12-04 19:02:50 UTC
Is it relevant to have HidePatronName and this new pref HidePersonalPatronDetailOnCirculation? Should not we merge them?
Comment 11 Martin Renvoize 2018-12-05 09:32:58 UTC
Not a bad catch there Jonathan... it would be nice to reduce the number of sysprefs.. perhaps an enhancement that allowed selection of which fields to show rather than a hard-coded list is in order.

I think HidePatronName is for hiding patron information outside circulation, while the other targets pages in the circulation module specifically. Something more general would still be nice, but I think both make sense right now.
