OpenEMR 6.0.0 Patch

For all those that use the portal feature, we’ve done a major change in navigation. Mainly we’ve moved the side bar navigation to the top of the views. This should give a better responsive experience on tablets and phones. Furthermore, Documents navigation has also improved.
I plan many more new improvements in our next patch.

How do i upgrade to latest patch with some files of mine already customized?

#5

In the patch instructions there is a list of files you can check to see if you have modified files:

This is the 3rd patch and also includes changes from prior patches. Please read through the list of modified files to ensure you haven’t customized any of these, since this will copy over this.

If you have modified any of the OpenEMR core files you will have to compare your changes with the modified files and apply your changes on top of that. To avoid having to do this in the future you should try bundling your changes into a module. If you need to modify a core file you should put up an issue on github asking to have a OpenEMR event added to the system that you can connect to instead of having to modify core files.

Hi @brady.miller ,

I just installed 3 instance of the OpenEMR (dev,test,stage) and am testing with the patch 3. Feels good and great at first look.

@juggernautsei Only had a disappintment with Lifemesh. I went to the website to get trial license but there was none. I couldnt find a demo of the system either. I would not want to subscribe to something i dont know about. Appreciate your help and advise.

@jfischburg is the person that is able to address the lack of a trial account.

I saw the update today and wanted to put in the newest patch.

“The 3rd patch for OpenEMR 6.0.0 has been released.”

When I followed all the instructions, I get this error:

“Not Found

The requested URL was not found on this server.

Apache/2.4.18 (Ubuntu) Server at 192.168.1.19 Port 80”

Then I see that am running: Version Number: v6.1.0-dev.

Does this patch apply to me? If not how did I get v6.1.0-dev, and which one am I supposed to have?

hi @nursejeff, it doesn’t apply since you’re on 6.1.0 which you moved to when you upgraded to the development version.

#12

Hi @jfischburg

I see that you replied in another post. Lets close this one and focus on Project - Integrate Telehealth

Hello Stephen,
I see that you worked on the Messaging section of the EMR. I am not sure if I am doing something wrong, but I cannot sort the columns based on type, date, sender, etc. The (?) help popup mentions the ability to sort, but there are no arrows to sort those columns. Is there something I need to enable?
I really need to be able to see “URGENT” messages at the top of the column as it only defaults to “Date”.

Additionally, the listing always reverts to the top of the listing after viewing a message, even though I may be 2-3 pages into the list.

Any help would be appreciated!

hi @Mark_Sarnov, sounds like a bug, will check it out.

#15

Any luck “sorting” this thing out?
Mark

#16

Nevermind. I fixed it.
Here is the corrected messages.php
Specifically lines 562, 568, 571 required the following after the href=…
<img src="…/…/…/public/images/sortdown.gif" border=0

There was no link to the gif for the sortup and sortdown arrow, therefore, nothing to click upon to change the sort order.
How do I get this included in the next patch or main tar.gz?

Thank you… also: there is another bug in messages.php.
When clicking on the document linked to a message, it will not display/pull the document to view due to a problem in line: 505 (of the current messages.php on GitHub)
where : attr(addslashes($pname)) . “’,” . attr(addslashes($prow[‘pid’])) . “,” . attr(addslashes($prow[ pubpid’])

will work when changed to:
attr(addslashes($pname)) . “’,” . attr(addslashes($prow[‘pid’])) . “,” . attr(addslashes($prow[ pid’])

This is the “gotoReport” call from “onclick”

When I inspected the live webpage in the browser, the “pubpid” was not populated(mostly, but not all the time), and if blank, the link does not work. My kludge of repeating the 'pid" in both fields resolves the issue.
