Custom field in bugnote

[misu]

Hi all,
we need to have some additional structured information to each bugnote. Is there some solution how to do it?

some additional structured information

Can you give an example for this?

[misu]

of course: We have some end-user ERP application. Issues in this Mantis Project should be open for longer time and every action (bugnote) in issue shoud be assigned to separate subprojects. So subproject is an example of custom field in bugnote.
There is posibility to have same issue with diferent custom field at "issue level" but this is not practical because there is same issues (same descriptions, specification, ...) with only one different field and developers has problem to chose right one.

You can follow my signature and take a look at the CFNotes plugin (if Mantis < 1.2.*).

Thank for your tip we try it. At this time we use Mantis version 1.1.7 but in the future we plan upgrade to 1.2.* - do you plan update your extension?

I think this one is not compatible with 1.2.* plugin system.

Only for your information:
I tryied it to install but there was many problems. The main has been that we are using MS SQL as DB storage. I had to change PluginManager to respect SQL syntax and recreate needed tables manually. Same for CFNotes. Configuration of CFNotes seems OK and it is what we are looking for. But after adding new bugnote - there is released another SQL problem with Unicode ...

Finally done - I made change tables definition on MSSQL (datatypes) and it works.
Thank for your advice again.
I hope that there will be some solution for future version too
