Description Melia Meggs 2012-05-18 23:08:18 UTC
We would like a feature that allows librarians to attach unlimited arbitrary files to a patron record.

Specifically, we want to store a PDF document with a patron record. They would be like the patron images, but for a document. We would like a link on the patron record that when clicked would open the PDF.

Works fine, except there does not seem to be any delete function. Either add delete function or change remit to not include a delete function and add a new bug for delete capability.

Further rebasing has been required...

This all looks very good, except I'm not terribly thrilled about the hardcoded MAX_FILE_SIZE value in the upload.  It seems to me that that value should be controllable by the sysadmin, rather than locked in at 2000000.

I think a followup fix would be appropriate here, rather than a complete resubmission.   Rebased version is Passed QA.

Hi Melia,

Could you explain the use case for this feature ? I can't see why it's something we would need in an ILS.
Comment 17 Katrin Fischer 2012-06-26 16:22:47 UTC
Hi Paul,
the use case that comes to my mind are signed registration forms or other forms that need a signature from the patron.
Comment 18 Melia Meggs 2012-06-26 16:33:52 UTC
Yes, that's exactly it, Katrin.
Comment 19 Paul Poulain 2012-06-28 12:01:01 UTC
Patch pushed, but I think it would be usefull to have the list of attached files available on the moremembers.pl page (and maybe also on the check-out page)
The use case that has been given make interesting for a librarian to see quickly if there are files attached to ask for missing ones.

Exemple: I'm supposed to give a proof of address every year. On the check-out page, when my card is entered, Koha display "Patron Paul Poulain, currently 0 issues, 1 file attached (10/01/2010) => I haven't updated my proof of address

(that's just an example)

However : the moremember.pl page is really crapy now and would not deserve a large update. But that's another topic !
Comment 20 Paul Poulain 2012-07-02 12:51:54 UTC
In bug 7955, http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=7955#c21, Nicole spotted that the "notices" tab appear twice.

This was due to the fact that this patch add the "notices" tab without removing it. Probably a rebase mistake. Will push a patch removing the duplicate tab now

Comment 22 Owen Leonard 2012-07-10 18:14:56 UTC
In testing my patch I found that I couldn't trigger any error messages to appear. The error box appears without text if I submit the form without selecting a file. The error box does not appear at all if I submit a 0-byte file (which I assume is what errors.empty_upload is about?)
