Description Caroline Cyr La Rose 2024-03-01 17:44:42 UTC
In the patron file (moremember.pl), there is always "Show checkouts to guarantor" and "Show charges to guarantor", even if the library doesn't use the guarantor feature.

If AllowStaffToSetCheckoutsVisibilityForGuarantor and AllowPatronToSetCheckoutsVisibilityForGuarantor are both set to "Don't allow", or if the patron has no guarantor, I think the "Show checkouts to guarantor" field should be hidden.

Same for AllowStaffToSetFinesVisibilityForGuarantor and AllowPatronToSetFinesVisibilityForGuarantor. If both are set to "Don't allow" or if the patron has no guarantor, the "Show charges to guarantor" should be hidden.

I'm thinking especially of academic libraries and special libraries, this is useless information that shows in the patron file.

I agree with Caroline; we have also had this comment from special libraries.
