Prohibit user from viewing issues created by others

Post by selivan »

Is there any way to prohibit user to view issues created by other users(so he can only view his own issues)? We want give some clients access to bug tracker, but we don't want them to see all bugs and internal discussions. I've read about Custom Fields, but that is not what I need...

Thank you for the answer! :) It works, but user with reporter privilegue still can see other user's bugs title and links in All Projects mode: in Recently Modified, in Resolved, etc. If user selects this link he see 'Access denied'. Is there any way to exclude other user's bugs from all Projects or prohibit user to use All Projects mode?

I never used this option myself. I think this is a bug with high priority. Which version of MantisBT do you use?

I tried with latest stable version of MantisBT (1.2.4 at the moment) and was not able to reproduce the issue.

Thank you so much for this answer. We use Mantis with our clients but need to only go project by project as clients can see other support issues.

Perhaps there is a better way in Mantis.
