Description Owen Leonard 2016-05-24 18:05:48 UTC
If you have the 'barcode.pl' plugin enabled for the barcode field in your MARC framework, but the 'autoBarcode' preference is turned off, the plugin will appear to be active but won't do anything.

I think there ought to be text explaining the connection, to be shown both on the system preference itself and when the barcode plugin is selected during framework editing.

Or is there a time when one does something without the other?
