Please constrain the "category code" dialog box to 2 characters or allow for longer category code length. As it currently stands, users can add category codes in excess of 2 characters, which causes 500 errors when quick-searching patrons, in member.pl.
I'm going to need a screen cap or longer description to better understand what the issue here is. Would you provide one?
Hi, which version are you looking at? You should be able to use categorycodes up to 10 characters everywhere in Koha without having any problems. If there is a place where it does not work - it's a bug there and should be fixed. Can you give a step by step description of what you are doing and what the failing code was?
I had created patron category codes for each grade level at a school, ie. GRADE01, GRADE02, etc. I imported the students and tried to browse by last name, using members.pl. I received 500-code errors, in the browser, on each page. Since I didn't have the problem when I was using a 2-digit category code, namely "ST" for student, I changed all of the category codes to 2-digit codes, ie. 01, 02, etc., which resolved the problem. I'm currently on version 3.6.2.3. I apologize, but I don't really have a test environment, right now, to replicate the problem. If anyone else can replicate this problem they can reopen this bug; however, at this point I will mark this bug as resolved. -Thanks
