Description Nicole C. Engard 2011-01-13 00:09:51 UTC
All other preference tabs have categories (unless they only have 1 or 2 prefs). The patrons tab should also be broken into categories for easy navigation.
Comment 1 David Cook 2013-03-04 22:25:09 UTC
This could certainly be useful. Serials might also benefit from a categorization of the system preferences...
Comment 2 Katrin Fischer 2014-11-02 10:12:38 UTC
Still valid.

Bug 5614: Organize 'patron' system preferences

Until now, there was only "General" and "Privacy". This patch
breaks the "General" prefs up into multiple sections.

To test:
- Go to Administration > Patrons
- Verify the current state of things
- Apply patch
- Reload patch
- Verify headings make sense and groups make sense as well

This is so much easier to browse and read, rather than such a long list of system preferences!

I'm sure others may have some suggestions and refinements for the system preferences left under general, but I think it is a great improvement as is.
