From ebda36c876697428af3bc066150bd4c7ba2ec8c5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Owen Leonard Date: Fri, 26 Feb 2021 12:43:28 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Bug 27805: Use input type "email" for email preferences This patch changes the way input fields are output in the system preferences template for preferences which have an "email" class. The input type will now be "email" instead of "text." Email type inputs are "loosely" validated. Mozilla's documentation says valid patterns are "username@domain or username@domain.tld," so Koha's default "root@localhost" will still work. The other advantage of an "email" type input is that it typically triggers different keyboard options in mobile devices. To test, apply the patch and go to Administration -> Global system preferences. - Search system preferences for "email." - Test the email type preferences you find (e.g. KohaAdminEmailAddress, ReplytoDefault, SendAllEmailsTo), confirming that email addresses like username@domain or username@domain.tld work correctly. - Confirm that any other value triggers a validation error.
