System requirements
You can learn about the system components (like OS and database) needed for running Koha on the community wiki.
This patch updates the ILS-DI authorized IPs preference to deny all IPs not listed in the preference.
Previously if no text was entered the ILS-DI service was accessible by all IPs, now it requires explicitly defining the IPs that can access the service.
Upgrading libraries using ILS-DI should check that they have the necessary IPs defined in the system preference.
This fixes the OPAC search results page by removing a call to system preference OPACLocalCoverImagesPriority - this system preference no longer exists. (There is no visible difference to the OPAC search results page.)
This fixes a typo in the code for OPAC password recovery - 'minPasswordPreference' to 'minPasswordLength' (the correct system preference name). It has no noticeable effect on resetting an account password from the OPAC.
38268 Callers of confirmModal need to remove the modal as the first step in their callback function
This fixes confirm dialog boxes in the OPAC to prevent unintended actions being taken, such as accidentally deleting a list. This specifically fixes lists, and makes a technical change to prevent this happening in the future for other areas of the OPAC (such as suggestions, tags, and self-checkout).
Example of issue fixed for lists:
- Create a list with several items.
- From the new list, select a couple of the items.
- Click "Delete list" and then select "No, do not delete".
- Then select "Remove from list", and confirm by clicking "Yes, remove from list".
- Result: Instead of removing the items selected, the whole list was incorrectly deleted!
