I think this is a good idea, so long as showing suggestions for all libraries as the default is optional. I used to work in a situations where staff at LIBRARYA did not want staff at LIBRARYB to see what patrons from LIBRARYA were suggesting due to privacy concerns. In that situation we used jQuery to disable the #branchcode dropdown on suggestion.pl and staff were not allowed to switch libraries so that they had to log out and log back in to see suggestions for other locations - but they could only do that if they had a username and password for that location. It would be great if there is a setting to show suggestions from 'Any' library . For us, we were quite puzzled at first when we saw 2 suggestions pending but there was no data after clicking into the suggestions. We couldn't figure out where the suggestions were and later learnt that the suggestions were in ACQ Info where we need to run a search with 'Any' Library. It is quite troublesome to have to check suggestions like this. *** Bug 14830 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** I am wondering if this problem has been solved by Bug 26833 since now we can see both the logged in branches suggestions and all libraries suggestions on /cgi-bin/koha/mainpage.pl. (In reply to Lucas Gass from comment #4) > I am wondering if this problem has been solved by Bug 26833 since now we can > see both the logged in branches suggestions and all libraries suggestions on > /cgi-bin/koha/mainpage.pl. This issue is not particularly solved by Bug 26833. If I follow the link to All Library suggestions from the homepage, I go to /cgi-bin/koha/suggestion/suggestion.pl?branchcode=__ANY__#ASKED and see all suggestions. But if I move off of that page in order to edit a suggestion, all of the avenues back to the main Suggestions page will end up just taking me to /cgi-bin/koha/suggestion/suggestion.pl, where I'll see only my logged-in branch suggestions. We need a way to make the page always default to all branches. |
