The middle name would be very helpful for some libraries when using the autocomplete search. If there are a lot of similar patrons it's helpful for differentiating.
Our circulation staff noted that middle names and initials did not appear in the search autocomplete when searching for patrons. It would be useful to see middle names when scanning for duplicate accounts or patrons with common first and last names.

New to this. > > Erin Hi Erin, I suspect your question was missed here - maybe reach out to the Bywater support directly raising a ticket. If you don't have full access to your server, you won't be able to do this yourself. The bug fix will be backported to the stable releases, but and then be included in one of the upcoming bugfix releases.
Pushed to 23.05.x for 23.05.04
Nice work everyone! Pushed to oldstable for 22.11.x
