Description David Nind 2023-05-04 00:49:20 UTC
Day-to-day, we normally just refer to "system preferences" rather than "global system preferences".

I don't think there is any clear distinction between "Global system preferences" and "System preferences", or any need to have the "Global". 

This would mean changing Administration > Global system preferences to just "System preferences".

This is the first time I've done a database update - hopefully I got it right!

Also, I'm not sure anyone will agree with me about changing this - comments welcome!

Bug 33673: Change "global system preferences" to "system preferences"

The Koha Community normally refers to "global system preferences"
as just "system preferences".

This updates the staff interface and other occurences to refelect
this, including:
- Administration > Global system preferences and the description
- Patrons > [a patron] > More > Set permissions > Manage Koha
  system settings > Manage global system preferences
  (manage_sysprefs)
- The installer files and the database (permissions table)

Test plan:
1. Note that in the staff interface "Global system preferences"
   is dispalyed in two places:
   1.1 Administration: Go to Administration. There is a section
       called "Global system preferences" with a description
       and a search box.
   1.2 User permissions: View the details for a patron > More >
       Set permissions > expand 'Manage Koha system settings' >
       scroll down to 'Manage global system preferences
       (manage_sysprefs)'
2. Apply the patch.
3. Update the database.
4. Revisit the pages in step 1 - these should now show as
   "System prefereneces" or "system preferences" as appropriate.
5. Sign off!

I agree with this change, consistency is good. As far as I can see
this patch cathes all the occurrences of "global".
