|
|
|
|
<blockquote>
|
|
<p>Previously overdue notices exclusively used the default language, but bug 26420 changed this to the opposite - to exclusively use the language chosen by the patron.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>However, if there is no translation for the overdue notice for the language chosen by the patron then no message is sent.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>This fixes this so that if there is no translation of the overdue notice for the language chosen by the patron, then the default language notice is used.</p>

<blockquote>
|
|
<p>This fixes an issue with the 'Returned claims' feature (enabled by setting a value for ClaimReturnedLostValue)- resolving returned claims now works as expected.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Before this fix, an attempt to resolve a claim resulted in the page hanging and the claim not being able to be resolved.</p>
