How to exclude Administrators from the "Assign To"

Post by plume7 »

Hello,

I need to know how to NOT make visible the Administrator login in the "Assign To" list. Administrators are not concerned by the projects and should not appear in the list.
Thank you for your help. :?:

Go to manage, manage configuration, Workflow Thresholds and uncheck handle and issue regarding the administrator acess level.

Hello,
Thank you for your answer but it does not work.
If I uncheck the "Handle an Issue" option for the Administrator, 24 users can be assigned to and I declared 5 users for my project which is private. Moreover the Administrator is still in the list.
I can not understand what happens.
Did you test this on your implementation?

Yes.....

There is a parameter in config_defaults_inc.php that can help you.

take a look:

# access level needed to be able to be listed in the assign to field.
$g_handle_bug_threshold = DEVELOPER;
# access level needed to show the Assign To: button bug_view*_page or
# the Assigned list in bug_update*_page.
# This allows control over who can route bugs
# This defaults to $g_handle_bug_threshold
$g_update_bug_assign_threshold = '%handle_bug_threshold%';

it is configured DEVELOPER.

I´ve defined the users that I want to appear in manage configuration, but I wanted just to create some emails lists to assign bugs to. These emails are distribution lists. I´ve created a new acess level (TEAM), created dummys accounts for those accounts and defined in manage configuration, in handle an issue to only show these accounts.

Hello,

Since the variable is a threshold, I think it will not answer my problem. I want to see Developers and Managers in the list and exclude Administrators.

Try setting the threshold to a value like:

$g_update_bug_assign_threshold = array( DEVELOPER, MANAGER );

Hello,
Using $g_update_bug_assign_threshold = array( DEVELOPER, MANAGER ), I get Developers, managers and always Administrators.

I use mantis 1.0.5, and I can control this in manage configuration, in handle issue. What is the version that you use?

Best regards?
