changes to personal info in OPAC
Hi, I recently have noticed that when I (or any user) try to update my personal details through the OPAC, it generates an error message that states, "You have not filled out all required fields. Please fill in all missing fields and resubmit." No required fields have been left unfilled. Is anyone else experiencing this and/or have any ideas for what might fix this problem? Users can change passwords and pay fines through the OPAC, no problem, it's just the personal details that can't be changed, when before they could be (as I have it set that they should be allowed to). Any help with this issue would be very appreciated!!! Best, *Vickie Jacobs* *Librarian, Oman Library* vjacobs@mei.edu 202-785-1141 ext.229 or 222 *Inspiring dialogue. Empowering change.* 1763 N ST.

Hi Victoria, I would check to see if you fields in the PatronSelfRegistrationBorrowerUnwantedField t are also in the PatronSelfRegistrationBorrowerMandatoryField. Having a required field also set to hidden would cause the problem you are seeing. Cheers, On Thu, Sep 17, 2020 at 9:16 AM Jacobs, Victoria <vjacobs@mei.edu> wrote:

Thank you for your fast reply, Lucas. I checked the two categories you mentioned, and here's what I saw: There's no overlap from those where a required field would be hidden. No field lights up as being red to signal it was required but left unfilled. Last time I tested this was maybe a month ago; when users did self registration, they were shown all mandatory fields except patron_att_5 and patron_att_6 -- but those fields would be highlighted red if they're empty when the form was submitted, or the next time they tried to make changes. From what I remember, they were originally set up so that when doing self registration, they couldn't finish the registration without filling those in, but again it was highlighted red. The thing now is that nothing is highlighted as being an empty mandatory field. The other problem I've discovered is that now those patron attributes 5 and 6 don't act as if they're mandatory anymore. I'll keep playing with random things (I'm also super new to Koha so poking around is about 70% of my activity) to see if I can figure something out, but if Lucas or anyone else has read this far and seeing the fields helps: PatronSelfRegistrationBorrowerUnwantedField: categorycode|cardnumber|dateexpiry|altcontactfirstname|altcontactsurname|altcontactaddress1|altcontactaddress2|altcontactaddress3|altcontactstate|altcontactzipcode|altcontactcountry|altcontactphone Mandatory fields: surname|email|firstname|dateofbirth|password|country PatronSelfModificationBorrowerUnwantedField: There are no hidden fields BorrowerUnwantedField: streetnumber BorrowerMandatoryField: surname|cardnumber|email|firstname|dateofbirth|password|userid|country|patron_attr_5|patron_attr_6 Again, any suggestions for what might be going on here would be very, very welcome!!
