CSV-prefill of cust. Fields and Email Ticket-Number to User

Post by MBa »

Hello everybody,

I know from alot people that they would need some kind of "UserDB" in Mantis, that they are able to enter their data quite quick. I've done such a customization and want to share it now. I also wrote a patch and an unpatch script as well as a short description (with screenshots ;o)...

Cheers,
MBa

Re: UserDB for Mantis 1.0.6

i forgot: This patch also works with other Versions.

You can also customize the patch-script which is very easy -> just replace the line-numbers with the new ones:

# Create new Entries
# -----------------------------------------------
file :: bug_report_advanced_page.php
line :: 365
code :: 3
<!-- Start userdb.patch -->
<?php include "inc_userload.php"; ?>
<!-- End userdb.patch -->

line 377 instead of line 365 for example...

The Patch also sends an email with the current Ticket-Number to the User!

Cheers,

Re: UserDB and Email with Ticket-Number to User

Hello again,

I've now a solution for a User-DB or anything else you want to prefill your mantis custom-fields with (any kind of things like User-DB, list of articles, stock list ...) without customizing any mantis-code. It manipulates mantis from outside (frame). This works for any mantis version! If anyone is interessted in a screenshot or a demonstration video -> let me know (pm me).

Cheers,
MBa

ps.: User-DB means nothing else than reading a CSV-File and prefill your Custom-Fields -> which may save alot of time ...
