Description Andrew Fuerste-Henry 2025-08-08 17:37:35 UTC
On the bib details page (/cgi-bin/koha/catalogue/detail.pl) each item has an Edit button in the holdings table.

On the Manage Items page (/cgi-bin/koha/cataloguing/additem.pl) each item gets an Actions button that allows the choice of Edit, Duplicate, Print label, Delete, and OPAC view.

If you enable LocalCoverImages, the bib details Edit button gets an added side-option allowing selection of Upload Image with 2 clicks (Edit still only takes 1 click). One cannot add an item-level cover from the manage items page.

It would be preferable if these two buttons were identical, with each being the sort of two-part button we see on bib-detail when LocalCoverImages is enabled. The button should select Edit when clicked normally, but also allow a click for additional options Duplicate, Print label, Delete, and OPAC view.
