Mantis Bug Tracker - Forums

Hi,
i searched about the configuration report option and didn't found much topics cove this point.The problem is i have 10 categories and i need to set 10 sub-categories for each category and unfortunately there is no option to doing that and the old plugin(LinkedCustomFiled) not working with the new version.

i have crated a customer field and need to create a drop down with all values (100) using configuration report

Custom fields are configured using page "Manage Custom Field". Click the link of the custom field you want to configure.
You have to set "Possible Values".

Thanks artol maybe i was not clear enough

1- i have custom fields called sub-category , i need if the user chose one of the category fields values the i can filter with the related values on the sub-category field (dependent lookup fields)


2- regarding the configuration report , i want to create a severity values for specif project so i have create configuration option

username => all users
project name => Projectx
configuration option => severity_enum_string
Type => complex
Value =>

You need a plugin similar to this one https://github.com/mantisbt-plugins/lin ... tom-fields

Code: Select all

array (
  0 => 15:Bug Minor,
  1 => 16:Bug Major,
  2 => 17:Bug Block,
  3 => 19:Feature,
)

severity_enum_string is a string, not complex.
This is the original one, adjust it to your needs

$g_severity_enum_string = '10:feature,20:trivial,30:text,40:tweak,50:minor,60:major,70:crash,80:block';

Needing the same feature.
Many people do actually when reading and searching this forum.

Anyway, the plugin you mentioned doesn't seems to work very well in Mantis 2.x

But I do got it to work with a few workarounds

STEP 1) change the following lines in file 'LinkedCustomFields.php':

$this->version = "1.0.1";
# $this->requires = array(
# "MantisCore" => "1.2.6, <2.30.0",
# "jQuery" => "1.8"
# );

$this->requires = array(
"MantisCore" => "1.2.6, <2.30.0",

STEP 2) Install the plugin

STEP 3) Change de database table 'plugin_linkedcustomfields_data' by your self.

DONE.

But I don't prefer this workaround.
Alternative solution might be a custom field which is only visible when a particular category is selected?

If anyone has a better solution???
Please let me know!
Thanks in advanced.

Got it to work with version 2.12
