[Mantis 1.0.6] Project Documentation Notes?

Post by s050399b »

Hi,

Is there a way to post Project Documentation or Notes?

I have check out the [Docs] menu, but it doesn't allow to post anything in admin mode.


Thanks,

Did you consider the wiki integration?

I have done DokuWiki, but I didn't quite like it.

How can I hack mantis that it will accept postings without an attachment?

Do you mean adds to the docs URLs rather than attaching documents? At the moment, this is not supported. However, it was requested in the past. So if someone ends up providing a patch, then I will integrate it.

If you are not familiar with PHP, then there is no easy way to do it.

Out of interest, why didn't you like DokuWiki? Is it that the Wiki model is general is not suitable to what you want to do?

Hi vboctor,

We actually want a "notice board" for each project, so that everyone can read about it, and we would like to have that under the mantis menu.

The integration between Dokuwiki and mantis is so separated, linkage and etc are not smooth.

Did you consider the "news" functionality in Mantis?

yes, i did, it's somewhat different since it can't be seperated by projects.

and it shouldn't be mixed with the "news" on the mantis,

mantis news and project news should not be mixed,

You can have news for "all projects" or for a specific project.
