Mantis Bug Tracker - Forums

So right now, Mantis supports enumerating custom fields with dynamic values defined in the current project (or the project to which the issue belongs)
http://docs.mantisbt.org/master/en/admi ... DS.DYNAMIC

However, I would like to always enumerate my custom field with version values for a specific project. For example, enumerate the custom field "Firmware version" with a list of versions defined for a project named "Firmware" in the MantisBT.

Based on the example code (replaced "categories" with "versions") given in the above link: the "helper_get_current_project" function gets the name of the project, is there a similar function to which we can pass the name of the specific project from which we would like to pull the version values?

Have a look at function project_get_id_by_name in file core/project_api.php

Thanks. I was able to get it to work using your tip. So it seems that if I want two of my custom enumeration field to populate the version list from two different projects I simply add another custom function like:
and specify "=versions_2" in the Manage->Manage Custom fields->MyCustomField2.

In fact I have been able to do it successfully, but just wanted to make sure that I did it in a correct fashion.
