Evergreen 2.11.6 and 2.12.3 released


The Evergreen community is pleased to announce two maintenance releases of Evergreen: 2.11.6 and 2.12.3.

Evergreen 2.12.3 includes the following bugfixes:

  • Web staff client fixes
    • The receipt on payment checkbox now prints a receipt at time of payment.
    • The Items Out count in the patron screen now includes long overdue items.
    • A fix was added to prevent values from a previously-edited patron from appearing in the edit form of a subsequent patron.
    • User notification preferences now save correctly in the patron registration and edit forms.
    • The UPDATE_MARC permission is no longer requested when performing a search from the staff catalog.
    • Non-cataloged circulations now display in the Items Out screen without requiring a refresh.
    • Required statistical categories are now required to be entered in the copy editor. (A similar bug for the patron editor was fixed in the 2.12.1 release).
    • Voiding bills now requires confirmation.
    • Staff can no longer use the copy editor to put items into or out of the following statuses: checked out, lost, in transit, on holds shelf, long overdue, and canceled transit.
    • The contrast is improved for alert text showing the amount a patron owes in bills.
    • Circ modifiers now sort alphabetically in the copy editor.
  • Other bugfixes
    • Code to prevent a hold already on the Holds Shelf from being transferred to another title.
    • A fix to a bug that prevented users from scheduling reports with a relative month if the report template used a date that applied the Year
      Month transform with the On or After (>=) operator.
    • A fix to a bug where the max fines threshold was reached prematurely due to the presence of account adjustments.
    • A check that prevents a SMS message from attempting to sending when the SMS carrier is null.
    • For systems that provide search format as a filter on the advanced search page, a fix so that the format selected in the search bar when launching a new search from the results page overrides any previously-set formats.
    • The addition of an optional new Apache/mod_perl configuration variable for defining the port Apache listens on for HTTP traffic. This resolves an issue where added content lookups attempting HTTP requests on the local Apache instance on port 80 failed because Apache was using non-standard ports.
    • A fix to the public catalog’s My List page responsive design so that it now displays properly on mobile devices and allows users to place holds from My List.
    • A fix to a bug where the second (and subsequent) pages of search results in the public catalog (when group formats and editions is in effect) does not correctly generate links to hits that are not part of of a multi-bib metarecords.

Evergreen 2.11.6 includes the following fixes:

  • Code to prevent a hold already on the Holds Shelf from being transferred to another title.
  • A fix to a bug that prevented users from scheduling reports with a relative month if the report template used a date that applied the Year
    Month transform with the On or After (>=) operator.
  • A fix to a bug where the max fines threshold was reached prematurely due to the presence of account adjustments.
  • A check that prevents a SMS message from sending if the SMS carrier is null.
