As we don't have a fix yet to link to the right translated manual, this adds /en to the links from the help files to the manual to make them work again. Check with both patches applied, that the links work. You will have to change 17.11 to 18.05.

<h1>Patrons</h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>The Patrons module stores the information you add about your patrons.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Clicking on the link to the Patron module will bring you to a search/browse screen for patrons. From here you can search for a patron by any part of their name or their card number.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Clicking the small plus sign [+] to the right of the search box will open up an advanced patron search with more filters including the ability to limit to a specific category and/or library.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>You can also filter your patron results using the search options on the left hand side of the page.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Depending on what you have chosen for the 'Search fields' you can search for patrons in various different ways.</p>

<p>You can also choose to either search for fields that start with the string you entered or contain the string. Choosing 'Contains' will work like a wildcard search.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>You can also choose how your results will be sorted by using the 'Order by' pull down menu at the end of the form.</p>
