Description Sally 2021-10-15 11:34:07 UTC
To replicate:

1)  Go to Administration > System preferences and set:  AllowStaffToSetCheckoutsVisibilityForGuarantor - to Allow
2)  Load an adult patron
3)  Add a guarantee, remembering to set the Relationship
4)  Set 'Show checkouts to guarantors' to Yes
5)  Save
6)  Note that on the patron members/moremember.pl page "Show checkouts to guarantor" is set to No
7)  Edit guarantee and set 'Show checkouts to guarantors' to Yes
8)  Save
9)  Note that on the patron members/moremember.pl page "Show checkouts to guarantor" is set to No

I have the same issue with the 'Show fines to guarantor' preference.

I've experimented with turning on all of the 4 System preferences with a partial match for 'VisibilityForGuarantor' - but I can't find a combination which works.

I've also tried adding a child patron and then adding the guarantor to the patron (instead of using the 'add guarantee' button) - but it makes no difference.

Tested on master on a sandbox and on 20.11.10 - it's occurring in both.

I am unable to replicate this error on 21.05.07, 21.05.x, or master. Sally, what version did you see it on?

Master was at 21.05.04 when I logged the bug - and it's in 20.11.10

It looks to me as if this duplicate bug has the fix on it:  https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=29524
