Description Owen Leonard 2021-10-19 16:18:44 UTC 
The write_age() function builds a string describing the patron's age based on the date of birth field in the patron entry form.

The function has been broken by Bug 28937 because the HTML structure of the page has changed.

Bug 29278: Fix selector of hint used to show age

This patch modifies the patron entry form to correct a problem with the
write_age() function introduced by the switch to Flatpickr on this page
(Bug 28937).

Rather than selecting the element based on the sequence of elements on
the page, we should add an ID for direct selection.

To test, apply the patch and go to Patrons.

- Locate a patron record which has a date of birth saved.
  - When you open that patron for editing, you should see their age
    displayed below the date of birth input field, e.g. "Age: 23 years 9
    months."
  - Changing the date in the date of birth field should update the age
    string correctly.
- Go to Patrons -> New patron.
  - The date of birth field should have a hint showing the required date
    format, e.g. "(DD.MM.YYYY)".
  - When you select a date of birth using the Flatpickr calendar the age
    string should be updated correctly.

While I LOVE the text to go in the release notes I wonder if it's useful for a case like this when the feature that causes it will only be released with 21.11 - so the bug this fixes hasn't had a chance to hit anyone (my favourite bugs of all). 

Maybe we should focus on the enh/new features and behaviour changing ones?
