The Brooklyn Public Library catalog for example, doesn't require a login to e-mail a cart. I can think of 2 examples where not requiring login for carts is useful so far. 1) A reference-only, non-circulating library uses Koha but doesn't need to implement public user accounts. 2) A researcher uses a catalog of a unique special library that does it's own original cataloging. The researcher is from another location and is not allowed to join the library and circulate books there. That person can still benefit from having a cart feature to e-mail citations to himself so that he can find those books at a local library. If you require login, you are basically taking a userful feature away from certain users and libraries. In summary, it seems it makes sense to have a condition in the code to not include the "[Blank] sent you a cart..." line in the cart when a user is not logged in. The tickets related to cart security issues don't seem to be loading at the moment, but perhaps there are other ways to deal with them? -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes. _______________________________________________ Koha-bugs mailing list [email protected] http://lists.koha-community.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/koha-bugs website : http://www.koha-community.org/ git : http://git.koha-community.org/ bugs : http://bugs.koha-community.org/
