Summary	0011508: New action "Send a reminder" for view_all_bug_page.php
Description	One action which I am still missing in 1.2.0RC2 is to send a reminder. A first implementation could be using the available dialog for this without any changes. Maybe for 1.2? An enhancement would be not only having the ability to send to one or more selected users but also to the last assigned user if available. Provide an additional checkbox "Also send to assigned user" in the dialog. Maybe targetting for 1.3?
Tags	No tags attached.

yw84ever 2010-02-17 14:18 reporter ~0024406	on my installation of mantis (following git 1.2.x), reminders can be sent from the view.php page (while viewing an issue). there is a link above the description. the link loads the page bug_reminder_page.php?bug_id=??? where i can then enter a message and select the users who will receive the message. so this functionality exists already but apparently you want to send reminders from the 'view issues' (view_all_bug_page.php). checking off a few issues, then selecting 'send reminder' in the drop down?

atrol 2010-02-17 14:35 developer ~0024407	This is exactly what I wrote already (at least I think so) I want to have the dialog which is already available for a single issue, but I want it also in view_all_bug_page.php for some kind of bulk operations

yw84ever 2010-02-18 08:07 reporter ~0024411	atrol: yeah that is what i thought you wrote already. just clarifying. perhaps to help me understand the context, you could explain a bit about under which circumstances this might be desired. a few use cases? sure - send reminders at bulk ;), i get it. but maybe there would be other ways to realize the goal at hand.
