[Koha] Age restriction no longer working?

[Katrin Fischer]

Hi Sue,

I just tested this on the latest development version and it will works
here. Could you maybe share some more information?

What I did in order to test:

- Set system preference AgeRestrictionMarker to FSK
- Went to the bibliographic frameworks and made sure 521$a was set to be
visible in OPAC, editor and staff interface
- Went into the Koha to MARC mappings and set 521,a for
biblioitems.agerestriction
- Changed one of my records to have 521$aFSK99 $aFSK 99
- Made sure my patron was under the age of 99
- Tried to check the item out and got: Age restriction FSK 99 | FSK99.

What is the exact version of Koha you are using? Did it stop working
after an upgrade? Could there have been any changes to your frameworks
or the mapping?

Maybe something to check first is that the age restrictions are still
stored correctly in your database via the mapping. Something like this
for a test record:

SELECT agerestriction FROM biblioitems WHERE biblionumber = XX

Hope this helps,

Katrin

AgeRestrictionMarker is set in Administration. This has suddenly stopped working.  I have checked the manual but it doesn’t appear to have changed.  Is this an error in Koha?
