Mantis Bug Tracker - Forums

Here is how to accomplish it in Mantis. If your QA Testers are the issue Reporters, do this: Under the Manage -> Manage Configuration -> Workflow Thresholds page, enable the option "Allow Reporter to close Issue". If your QA Testers are not the Reporters, you need to either give them Devel...

There should be a delete button to the far right of the option. You may have to scroll your browser window to see it.

Here is what you are looking for, from config_defaults_inc.php. Redefine in your config_inc.php file. # Standard Column Names (i.e. names to choose from): # selection, edit, id, project_id, reporter_id, handler_id, priority, reproducibility, projection, eta, # resolution, fixed_in_version, view_stat...

I was interested in this a while back and researched it some. I never implemented it, but here are the changes I think would need to be made. Hopefully someone else can confirm. The settings below are for a new status of "In progress". Replace with your status name. add/update to custom_co...

This is how the variable is defined in config_defaults_inc.php. $g_bug_link_tag = '#'; You need to change it in your config_inc.php file or through the "Manage Configuration -> Set Configuration Option" page. I don't know if only certain characters are accepted but it looks like you can ma...

Categories are specific per project. You have to go to the Manage page and then the Manage Projects page. Click on a project to manage and you can add categories to it. The category is just for classification purposes to use in filtering and organization so you can group issues about a similar subje...

And what is your relationship to this newly submitted issue? If you are not the reporter, the assignee, or not monitoring the issue, or have not submitted a bugnote to the issue, you have no relationship and will get no emails. You would need to put checks in the boxes under the access levels to get...

Also, best way to learn is to just play around in it, just have a backup in case you lock yourself out, and if you play around with it, don't use it as your production envrionment.

I think you can achieve this using current options. Make the project private. For the users you want to receive the notice, assign them the same access level to the project, like Developer. You can also leave the project public and give users a default access level of Developer. Go to the "Mana...

Vboctor, Wouldn't it make more sense to have two groups, one that gets to bypass moderation, and one that gets to perform moderation approval? I assume that people can be trusted to not be spammers sooner than they are trusted to perform moderation approvals. Or can the two functions not be separate...

Olegos, I don't think so. There is an option that allows reporter's to close their own issues but I am not sure that would apply to a custom state created before it. Why do you think you need a state between Resolved and Closed? What situation is it meant to handle? Once a developer has either fixed...

Nope. Sorry. What you could do is create a project specifically for those kind of issues, then create a meta-issue in it. So, you would create the issue in that project, then create individual issues in each project and give them a related-to or parent relationship to the first issue. Just a thought.

I don't believe this is possible, but you could create an email address that is a distribution list that has two other email addresses in it, and use the list email address for the mantis user.

1. I don't believe multiple access levels are currently an option. Remember that, in general, higher levels inherit the permissions of the lower levels. That is, in general, a developer can do anything that a view, reporter or updater can do. You should be able to give a user a single access level a...

I don't believe that groups or users with multiple emails are an available functionality yet. Workaround: Create a user with an email address that is a distribution list for a group of users. Give that user the right access to receive the notifications that you are wanting and/or adjust your email n...
