My View with boxes created from a custom filter

Post by mcsilver »

I'm sure this request is already somewhere in the forum but darned if I could find it. (Is the "exact match" search not working? I searched for "my view" and got a ton of results with the word "my" nowhere near the word "view".)

I am new to Mantis so let me know if this request already has a long history, or if I should asking it somewhere else.

Allow me to word the feature request the agile way:

As a user, I want to show one or more boxes on the My View page, each displaying search results from a custom filter/search, so that I can see at a glance, several groups of tickets, like:

status = Selected for Development
status = In Progress
Recently Closed
Closed Since the Last Release

I am coming from JIRA so here is a JIRA screenshot of what I mean:

Thank you for the consideration.

Thank you for showing me. Would you like me to link this one with the other or is that something you would do?

I don't understand what you mean with this, especially what's "the other"?

BTW, I am not sure if you are aware that there is at least some configuration possible on "My View" page, of course you can't get everything what you want with it.

Code: Select all

/**
 * Boxes to be shown and their order
 * A box that is not to be shown can have its value set to 0
 * @global array $g_my_view_boxes
 */
$g_my_view_boxes = array(
	'assigned'      => '1',
	'unassigned'    => '2',
	'reported'      => '3',
	'resolved'      => '4',
	'recent_mod'    => '5',
	'monitored'     => '6',
	'feedback'      => '0',
	'verify'        => '0',
	'my_comments'   => '0'
);

What I said doesn't make sense, now that I think about it: I forgot that my post was a forum post, not a Mantis ticket like the one to which you provided a link.

Yes, I am aware of the existing boxes to choose from, thanks.
