Mantis Bug Tracker - Forums

Hi guys,

I was wondering how to go about adding a new column on the view issues page called "Date Created". When a user logs in and clicks on "view issues", at the top of the page where it lists the Priority / ID / Category / Severity / Status / Updated / Summary

I would like to add a new column called Date Created as our uses wanted to know the date the entry was added as they find that knowing the date updated is not quite as useful. I think I know where to actually add the "Date Added" text but it needs to somehow know how to check the date and have that displayed in the column under it.

Can anyone assist?

To set it global for all users you can use page Manage > Manage Configuration > Manage Columns
Add date_submitted to "View Issues Columns"

Every user can use page My Account > Manage Columns for individual settings.

Thank you very much Atrol. You are a mantis genius sir.
I may have another question or two for your shortly. I have been searching through source code and pervious forum posts with no luck.

cheers

I know that this is the official solution,but it doesn't work for me. I tried from the personal configuration and it works, but I want to modify it for everyone so that it become the default.
the problem is when I click on "update columns as Global Default for All Projects" after removing the severity, it says "modified successfully" and then I found the severity still there
any help?

Edit: I forgot to mention that I'm trying to use this method mentioned in this thread to remove severity

Which version of MantisBT do you use?
