Description Jonathan Druart 2021-06-18 14:16:47 UTC
In the logs:
Variable "$patron" is not available at /kohadevbox/koha/opac/opac-detail.pl line 282

Coming from 
  commit 8de3d9a95f2f3a01b5ed309805d81c698ac8e550
  Bug 18989: (QA follow-up) Make controllers use Koha::Biblio->hidden_in_opac

-            'category'  => $borcat
+            'category'  => ($patron) ? $patron->categorycode : q{}

It's in a sub, and patron is declared outside.
Comment 1 Tomás Cohen Arazi (tcohen) 2021-06-18 18:18:11 UTC
Ha, $borcat (which I replaced with $patron) was defined as (our)

-our $borcat= q{};
-if ( C4::Context->preference('OpacHiddenItemsExceptions') ) {
-    $borcat = $patron ? $patron->categorycode : q{};
-}

I guess I overlooked it. Patch coming.

Bug 28600: Resolve variable scope issue

This patch fixes a scope issue. Originally, a variable declared as

our $borcat

was replaced by

my $patron

This patch makes the method not rely on global variables, but have a
parameter for the patron, and thus things are clearer.

To test:
1. Open the OPAC detail page for a record
=> FAIL: The logs show some errors about the $patron variable not
available in the scope
2. Apply this patch
3. Repeat 1
=> SUCCESS: No errors
4. Sign off :-D
