Bug: memberentry.pl Does Not Auto-calc Expiry and Joining Date
Hi, While transferring our membership database I noticed that memberentry.pl does not save Joining date (leave blank for today): Expiry date (leave blank for auto calc): I've loaded our dates by importing the member data into MySql from a CSV file. However when adding member manually the dates are not auto-calced as seems to be intended by design. Perhaps I've overlooked something, but if this is indeed a bug I'll be happy to add it Bugzilla. Natuarally I'm secretly hoping for someone to provide me with a quick magical fix and then claim the swooning credit from our head librarian. But then life usually isn't like that :-) TIA Bo
I believe it's Bug #1351. 1239 and 1331 look like they might be related as well. There's been quite a bit of discussion on the mailing list over the past months. If I recall correctly there was an email that indicated the problem was fixed in CVS. You could check out what changes were made.

Hi Folks, For new users of 2.2.9 looking for a solution to this topic, please read on...
if this is indeed a bug I'll be happy to add it Bugzilla.
It turned out the bug was known : 1351 (Bugzilla) and it had been fixed in the CVS but somehow did not make it into the release. The solution was to go to CVS to download/install the following files on my Koha server: Members.pm (modules/C4) ********** http://cvs.savannah.nongnu.org/viewvc/koha/C4/Members.pm?view=log&root=koha&pathrev=rel_2_2 and memberentry.pl (intranet/cgi-bin/members) ************ http://cvs.savannah.nongnu.org/viewvc/koha/members/memberentry.pl?view=log&root=koha&pathrev=rel_2_2 I now have the auto-calc functionality in memberentry.pl - which allows our librarians to add new patrons as per design. If you follow the instruction, so should you :-) Best Wishes, Bo
