Just kidding, inside joke, greetings old friend.

Looks like there was no answer here so I'll take a crack at it... Summary: - Projects can have SubProjects - Users are assigned to Projects - Categories can be assigned to Projects - Tickets can be auto-assigned to a single user identified in a Category When a ticket is created for a category, the r...

The wiki plugins page was just updated to include many plugins that are hosted by the MantisBT GitHub account. Please feel free to suggest other updates here. None of the plugin-specific pages in the wiki were updated in this update. There is no information for some plugins and it's tough to get cur...

I just saw that a minute ago, came here to update this ticket ... and here you are.
I'm embarrassed that I had missed this and will update the list of available plugins.
Thanks!

Is there a MOTD feature in Mantis? Any plugin? (There is no plugin for this listed in the wiki) Does anyone have an alternative solution? In Bugzilla there is an option/plugin to rotate any message from a list. Example screenshot The problem I'm trying to solve is that most people do not check Main ...

Take a look at the MantisBT source. Look for another plugin that does this. After looking around, please post here and point to specific code where you've looked, where you thought this would be present. I'm understanding that you want to display a different screen and show the current list of proje...

Take a look at the source and at other plugins.

That's a good question that I think should be answered. If we don't see anything here, I'll ask around.

If you and your team are working for a business entity which derives (monetary) benefit from Mantis and related freeware, then I suggest you contact the author, and offer something to motivate him to update the plugin for you. If there is no response or no progress, you could offer something here to...

I'm not understanding the challenge here. You're in View, but you're talking about updates? What kind of updates? Can you give us an idea of the business application? What kind of problem are you trying to solve? So far I'm thinking you're going to be looking at a plugin so you might want to start a...

Some confusion has been cleared up. You'll see a lot of changes in the Plugins namespace in the wiki starting this month. I really welcome all notes about plugins in the new Plugins>General Discussion area. Just slam whatever you have in there and I'll hit them all. Please post notes on the status o...

What @atrol suggests is also a good approach, probably the best direct approach. I just wanted to offer a short-term but effective solution that would yield some gratification with the least amount of effort. In any X/Y interface you of course have the From-X side and the To-Y side.The challenge is ...

You're in an area that's dear to my heart. I have sites dedicated to gamer communications that are in development and we'll have similar requirements. I hope this response isn't taken as flippant - but yes, with a plugin, you can bridge from any API X to create tickets with Mantis. I'd give the same...

Thanks @rombert. I see the wiki tools page is still pointing to the Sourceforge repo rather than Github. I'll look into that.

@mvreux - when you get a chance, will you verify that the latest changes address the issues you've described?

@Mushu - thanks for the note. There has been a lot of discussion about the plugins recently and we're trying to make that a much more visible and useful part of this ecosystem. Things are kinda in-flux now, but that's better than before. A new General Plugins board has been created here specifically...
