Suggestion - Target date

[gordonisnz]

Hi,

I know about the priority levels - IE, you can set certain tasks as high / low priority etc..

I've checked the release notes on Bugtracker, & want to suggest a new feature....

Would it be possible to set / specify a completion date on tasks ?

Ie, you create a project,

and have several tasks to do.

Task 1 :- High Priority
Task 2 :- Low Priority
Task 3 :- High Priority
Task 4 :- Medium Priority
Task 5 :- Low Priority
Task 6 :- Low Priority

You can sort your tasks by high/low etc...

HOWEVER, Task 2 and 3, are semi-related to another project, & need to be completed within the next 2 weeks.

The other tasks in this project are not required to be done for another 3 months.

Is there a way already (in the current stable release) to sort by completion (target) date ?

Or if its in a non-stable release, please advise.

Thank you.

You should checkout the due_date feature in 1.2.0rc2.

I searched this forum on hints, how to enable the due_date field in view / update / view_all bugs pages.
The only thing i got working is the view_all page!

Can anybody help me with the others, or tell me where to search for help?

[SOLVED]: I'm sorry it was way too easy! youst set this in your config_inc.php:

Code: Select all

        /************
         * Due Date *
         ************/

        /**
         * threshold to update due date submitted
         * @global int $g_due_date_update_threshold
         */
        $g_due_date_update_threshold = DEVELOPER;

        /**
         * threshold to see due date
         * @global int $g_due_date_view_threshold
         */
        $g_due_date_view_threshold = DEVELOPER;

normaly it is set to nobody, so it won't be displayed. Just set it to the level that matches for you!

Do you use the latest version (a nightly build)?
If no, try the latest (there were various changes concerning due date)
If yes, please enter a bug at MantisBT's own tracker
