Self-Registering Patrons allowed to choose -any- patron category?
I've activated Patron Self-Registration in the Koha library I support and that seems to be working okay; Except that on the self-registration screen, the new patron is allowed to choose whatever patron category he wishes, including those that should be staff or admin only. I would prefer self-registered patrons be limited to the default patron category and only be moved to an more appropriate category after staff review. Is there a setting that allows this? thanks!

Thank you, that answered my question! And I now have a clue about how to properly use the '-MandatoryField' and '-UnwantedField' settings. On Fri, Jan 19, 2018 at 11:35 AM, Jonathan Druart < jonathan.druart@bugs.koha-community.org> wrote:

Greetings,
Except that on the self-registration screen, the new patron is allowed to choose whatever patron category he wishes, including those that should be staff or admin only.
It should also be noted that patron category has nothing to do with system permissions. So fear not, if that is your concern. GPML, Mark Tompsett
