And also the custom header ($g_top_include_page) will no longer be displayed

PR: https://github.com/mantisbt/mantisbt/pull/860

yep, a lot of work for us, plugin creators.....

Is there an alternative event to use in place of EVENT_LAYOUT_PAGE_HEADER ?

Any progress on this.

The fix for the missing $g_bottom_include_page and $g_bottom_include_page $g_top_include_page ( bug 0022098 ) is to use a plugin but that wont work because EVENT_LAYOUT_PAGE_HEADER isn't implemented any more.

Using the plugin-code I've shown on 0022098 you may insert a javascript in the meta section, and add any HTML element you want anywhere you want in that javascript. Either use a defer="defer" attribute on the script node, or a window.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function () { ... }) in the script itself to trigger your node insertion after the page loading.

Using Javascript to fix this missing functionality isn't a solution

Do we know when this problem is going to be addressed?

Is there a planned fix date for this?

Last update was in February when the version was pushed out beyond 2.12.0

Will this be fixed?

Because according to this CLOSED pull request,

https://github.com/mantisbt/mantisbt/pull/860

this will never be fixed, so I think this bug should be at least closed. People is always landing on this bug and incorrectly assuming this will be fixed someday because the bug is still open.

Also, Corporate Branding policies in many companies (mine included) enforce some level of local branding on all internal systems, so we need some sort of customisation features for that. g_window_title (which still works) is not enough.

So add it yourself, is a one off task (for each new release) and pretty simple.
