On v. 3.01.00.058 I see a link on the staff client to the child from the parent and from the parent to the child -- so -- nothing to fix :) Cab, it sounds like you're asking for something in the OPAC though? Is that right? Nicole On Tue, Sep 8, 2009 at 5:12 PM, Chris Cormack<chrisc@catalyst.net.nz> wrote:

From my brief testing with Koha 3.0, a parent who logs in does not have access to any associated child accounts.
So, for a parent looking for a quick way to check what items his/ her family has checked out, s/he either has to check out all materials on one card, or check each account individually. Neither option is ideal.
Are there workarounds for this? How big an enhancement would this be?
I know privacy concerns would kick in at some point, particularly with teenagers, but for the younger set (elementary/ middle school years), I think some kind of "family administrator" account makes sense.
Koha definitely used to have this feature, and it will be needed back. In Koha 2.2.x and earlier, in the detail section it had hyperlinks to each of the children attached to an adult record.
And from the children back. In 3.0.x (and looks like what will be 3.2.x) we only have the links back from child to guarantor.
Can you add this as a bug, and I will endeavour to add it back in.
