Summary	0014841: Unable to customise fields shown on "change status" pages
Description	There is no way to customise which fields appear on the "Change Status" pages. Customising $g_bug_change_status_page_fields in config_inc.php has no effect. It would be nice to have customisable field lists for each status level: $g_bug_change_status_unresolved_page_fields $g_bug_change_status_resolved_page_fields $g_bug_change_status_closed_page_fields
Steps To Reproduce	Customise $g_bug_change_status_page_fields in config_inc.php, removing 'view_state' from the list. View a bug and hit the "Change status to" button. The "View status" field still appears on the "change status" page.
Tags	No tags attached.

kelson 2014-04-14 11:45 reporter ~0040098	Hi, In MantisBT 1.2.17, in bug_change_status_page.php, I found at line 44 : $tpl_fields_config_option = 'bug_change_status_page_fields'; However, $tpl_fields_config_option is not used anywhere. What about of this configuration option ? Cheers

TomR 2014-11-27 12:43 reporter ~0041931	Is this still an issue. It seems so, because we want to remove 'resolution' field evertwhere. However it stills shows up on bug_change_status_page.php Anyone with q quick fix?

windrienk 2017-08-03 05:38 reporter ~0057380	I had the same problem, I fixed it by removing/commenting the code in bug_change_status_page.php. Each field has his own piece of html and php code in there so you can comment/remove it.

Teyuz 2023-05-09 11:13 reporter ~0067742	Hello, some news about this issue ? I don't really understand if there is the possibility to remove some fields when clicking on 'Change status to' button. For exemple, I would need only to keep 'Add notes'. Regards.
