Mantis Bug Tracker - Forums

Oh, one other thing, the script mlovell provided calls for an image (which, on clicking, opens up the calendar). I made a dinky one myself.. If you want to use it, just drop it into your images folder.

Thank you very much for this!

For those interested in trying it out, there were a few more steps needed in order to get it working for me (on Mantis 1.0.0).

First, you'll need to add this line to your config_inc.php

$g_use_date_picker_javascript = true;

Second, the form on the bug report pages ...

I'm trying to find a solution for getting a specific project to use different language strings than the rest of the projects.

The reason for this is that we want to use Mantis for both bug and task tracking, but within separate projects. If the user is viewing a Tasks project, I want to flavor ...

Another thing to note, the custom field which I was trying to sort is defined in my custom_function_api.php, with different values depending on the project.

Was your custom field also defined in custom_function_api.php, hinke?

Hmm... I got this too.. I was trying out a new custom field and put it in the custom_function_default_get_columns_to_view

I was able to sort by my custom field just fine, but when I went to use a filter to change something, and then tried to return to the view all page, I got the 401 error. I had ...

Anyone have any suggestions for modifying the html_status_percentage_legend function to hide closed issues in the meantime?

Not a big deal, just curious if anyone had done it.

Also how can I stop people registering themselves and going into teh system? I would prefer it if only I could register users from the admin account.


You want the config_defaults_inc.php, or config_inc.php if it's in there.

Look for:

# allow users to signup for their own accounts.
# Mail ...

Thanks, I have added this as #5583

And thanks for the tip, Jelv. That is good advice. I'll pass it on to my users.

Thanks again for the help and for the great work :)

Sorry if this is answered somewhere. I tried forum searches, and looking through the manual, but I probably missed it.

I need a way to go from updating the bug, back to the page I was on.

So say, I'm on the My View page, I click the pencil graphic by the bug I wanted to update, then when I'm done ...

Mikewhit, I would recommend going into your /lang folder, opening strings_english.txt, and changing this line:
to this:
Or whatever wording suits you best. I made this change myself :)

Thank you, Victor. This definetly seems to be what I'm looking for, but I'm having a little trouble understanding where I will actually be defining the possible values, since I would be entering "=mine" instead of the possible values when I create the custom function.

Sorry for the noobie question ...

Hi, I have a question about custom fields!

I'm using Mantis 1.0.0a1 (and loving it by the way).

Here's my problem, though.

I have a custom enumeration field called "Level Name." I want to use that field in multiple projects, but the catch is that for each project, I need there to be different ...

I'm loving it already...

Mantis just continues to get cooler and cooler.

I am curious about this as well.. thanks!
