allowing REPORTER to mark issue resolved

Post by crp »

Is there a way to configure the MT so that a reporter can mark as resolved the issues they reported ?
using version 1.2.4

$g_allow_reporter_close		= ON;

I want to allow the reporter to mark the issue resolved , not just close an issue.

Code: Select all

$g_update_bug_threshold			= REPORTER;
But this is also not what you want, because this affects all issues, not only own issues.

hence my original question:
Is there a way to configure MT so that a reporter can update as RESOLVED only the issues they reported.

You have to change the source code for this

Can you explain the use case where this is needed?
Setting the status to resolved means in a standard installation and a typical workflow that a developer sets the resolution (maybe fixed, duplicate , ....)
sets a duplicate ID if needed, sets "Assigned To" user, sets the "Fixed in Version" field and maybe adds a Note. (most of these actions are not typical for reporters)
After that the reporter might close the issue (which is possible by setting $g_allow_reporter_close = ON;)
