Screenshots - Checkbox not visible in staff interface search results

The checkbox for selecting records for the standard search results in the staff interface is no longer visible.

Checked on latest Firefox, Chromium, and Google Chrome on Ubuntu 18.04.

I've only noticed this in the last few days - it is fine in 19.11.x and at least a week ago in master.

See the screenshots attached.

Git blames me and Bug 23885

Comment 3 Owen Leonard 2020-02-25 18:25:04 UTC
QA tool reports an error which I assume is unrelated:

   FAIL   valid_template
                Attempt to reload Koha/Template/Plugin/Biblio.pm aborted.
Compilation failed in require at /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl5/5.24/Template/Plugins.pm line 206.

Please correct me if I'm wrong.
Comment 4 Nick Clemens (kidclamp) 2020-02-25 19:16:09 UTC
To recreate:
1 - Set AmazonCoverImages to "Show"
2 - Set AmazonCoverImages to "Don't show"
3 - Check the DB, the pref is now ""
    select * from systempreferences where variable like '%amazoncover%';
4 - Do a search on the staff client
5 - Note checkboxes are missing and there is a JS error

I wonder if the problem is that we set the value for "Don't show" as "" (blank string) instead of 0

I do not recreate this error, however I got it yesterday and fixed it.

Bug 24713: JavaScript error on staff client catalog search results page

This patch modifies the output of template toolkit variables so that
values in the in-page JavaScript are quoted. This avoids JavaScript
errors when the template variable is empty.

To test, apply the patch and perform a catalog search in the staff
client. Use the browser's developer tool to check for JavaScript errors
in the console. There should be none.

Test with AmazonCoverImages both on and off.

Was just about to post - it seems that this was fixed over the last few days (one of the commits since since Saturday).

I've signed it off, but feel free to close if this is not required anymore.

Bug 23777 has been pushed to master but this is still a problem. Reopening.

=> I get '0', and so I still do not recreate the bug.
I think the patch is valid however, but I'd like to understand why it works for me. Can you confirm those steps are sufficient to recreate the problem? Which OS?

I am running koha-testing-docker with KOHA_IMAGE=master with docker-compose.yml and docker-compose.mariadb_d9.yml

For the record: Nick is using Debian 9 with mariaDB for Debian 10

Owen, what about you?
Comment 14 Owen Leonard 2020-03-04 12:39:03 UTC
The question is only whether or not the value returned by the system preference check is going to trigger the error or not. If the value for AmazonCoverImages is '', the error will happen. If it's 0 or 1 it won't.

It's more about fixing this specific error or other possible occurrences where prefs can be an empty strings (when 0 is expected).

You should also search for
