Select resolution when closing multiple tickets via bug actiongroup

[sintaq]

As per topic.

Looking for any plugin / customization that allow user to select resolution when closing multiple tickets via bug actiongroup

If none, some direction for me to start custom code. Thanks

[cas]

Have a look @ "Custom Group Actions" . You can define your own page with the wanted resolution field

Hi @cas

Thanks.

Is it this one? https://www.mantisbt.org/wiki/doku.php/ ... troduction

[cas]

Yep, that is the one. I have not worked with it but I would do the following.
Copy the existing pages to the custom pages and simply add the Resolution field to show in the form page . Next ensure the action page also updates that field. This way you should be safe

@cas

[cas]

[cas]

had a quick look, follow the instructions in the attached file
have tested this and works like a charm

thanks @cas.

actually, my aim is when user select Close via bulk actiongroup, user is able to select the appropriate resolution + add note before closing the selected issues.

with you sample, i think i can improvise it. many thanks anyway. you rock~!

of course this will work but actually you should have created a custom "Close" action to ensure peope are aware that if they mass update the resoltion, that the the ticket is also closed.
But since it is your environment, you will be awaare

[sintaq]

indeed. based on your sample, Custom close action was created so now, we have standard Close (close + add note) and Custom Close (close + update reso + add note)

[cas]

Perfect

Hi, I am a complete beginner in Mantis, could I please ask for advice and a more detailed explanation on how to achieve this "to have standard Close (close + add note) and Custom Close (close + update reso + add note)" result?

[sintaq]

@stan0o0

just follow the instruction. shouldnt get you wrong

[stan0o0]

EDIT: fixed! thanks guys

@sintaq

hi i just define variables in config_php as it in action_resolution.txt from @cas, i create bug_actiongroup_update_resolution_inc.php with your updated code, but i cant see this part "in config/custom_strings_inc.php/strings_english.txt, add:" that custom_string_inc.php isnt there in folders.

Is there a step that needs to be done beforehand? For example, installing that plugin? How should I proceed? So, after that, is it enough to follow the action_resolution.txt, and everything will work?

Thank you very much!
