Help on customizing fields, please!!!

Post by igor.pereira »

Hello people!

I've been trying for quite some time editing and customizing fileds on Mantis. I've managed to change the texts on some buttons and titles, but others are still intact because I couldn't find the correct file to "play" with. Should it really be custom_strings_inc?

Another thing: How can I change the order on non-custom fields? I know I can put a sequence on the custom ones, but is there a way to work with the system ones as well? For example, put a system field especifically between two custom fields.

And lastly, I'm having some trouble with email notifications. Can anyone help me with that?

Thanks in advance!

You would have to change the source code to get it.

I resolved this. Had to add some fields on the file custom_strings_inc.php.

Do you know which file?

Thanks! And is it as easy as just reordering the lines on the code?

Yes for the standard fields, no for mixing standard and custom fields.

And is there a way to customize the summary page? I'd like to add and change some fields...
Another thing: Can I add a due date in between states on the project? And also send a notification if that period is over?
Aaalson... :D why doesn't the "print reports" thing print the page i'm looking at (the summary page)? I'd like to see some of those fields on the report!
