Description Nicole C. Engard 2012-04-23 12:41:18 UTC
Created attachment 9274 [details]
without parameters permission

See attached.

The "Modification Log" tab does not appear while viewing a patron's record
(Detail, Check Out) unless the staff member has the "Set Koha system
parameters" priviledge enabled.

Maybe this would be a good one to clean up for the academy too. As far I can see there are 4 files linking to the modification logs:

koha-tmpl/intranet-tmpl/prog/en/includes/biblio-view-menu.inc	
33 [% IF ( CAN_user_tools_view_system_logs ) %][% IF ( logview ) %]<li class="active">[% ELSE %]<li>[% END %]<a href="/cgi-bin/koha/tools/viewlog.pl?do_it=1&amp;modules=CATALOGUING&amp;action=MODIFY&amp;object=[% biblionumber %]">Modification log</a> </li>[% END %]

koha-tmpl/intranet-tmpl/prog/en/includes/circ-menu.inc	
77         [% IF ( logview ) %]<li class="active">[% ELSE %]<li>[% END %]<a href="/cgi-bin/koha/tools/viewlog.pl?do_it=1&amp;modules=MEMBERS&amp;modules=circulation&amp;object=[% borrowernumber %]&amp;src=circ">Modification log</a></li>

koha-tmpl/intranet-tmpl/prog/en/includes/circ-menu.tt	
77     [% IF ( CAN_user_parameters ) %][% IF ( logview ) %]<li class="active">[% ELSE %]<li>[% END %]<a href="/cgi-bin/koha/tools/viewlog.pl?do_it=1&amp;modules=MEMBERS&amp;modules=circulation&amp;object=[% borrower.borrowernumber %]&amp;src=circ">Modification log</a></li>[% END %]

koha-tmpl/intranet-tmpl/prog/en/includes/members-menu.inc	
13         [% IF ( logview ) %]<li class="active">[% ELSE %]<li>[% END %]<a href="/cgi-bin/koha/tools/viewlog.pl?do_it=1&amp;modules=MEMBERS&amp;action=MODIFY&amp;object=[% borrowernumber %]">Modification log</a></li>

Only the first seems to be using the correct permission check.

Bug 7996: Patron Modification Log Requires Parameters Permission

To test
1- Open 'set permissions' on patron page and uncheck '(parameters) Set koha system parameters'
2- Open patron page and notice that there is no 'modification log' tab
3- Apply patch
4- Refresh page and notice 'modification log' tab is there
Comment 4 Katrin Fischer 2015-01-19 06:56:31 UTC
Hi Rochelle,

the way it works after your patch, it will need both the permission 'parameters' and 'view_system_logs'. I think what we need to do here is take a look at all the conditions [IF ...] that apply to show the link and check which are really needed / make sense. 

My feeling is that it would make sense to use 'view_system_logs' everywhere, as this is the more specific permission. What do others think?

It seems that we could remove the condition in viewlog.tt, do you confirm?

Yes, the permission check is done in the script, we shouldn't need a second
