Hello All,

I have performed a fresh install of Mantis 2.5.1 in my Laptop and i have been trying to add a simple Custom Status but seems like the customization added is not being recognized. I have been using Mantis 1.2.19 and added custom statuses/roles etc successfully without any issue. I am unable to figure out what is wrong if anything has changed in the way the customization code needs to be added. I would appreciate if anyone can help me point out where i have gone wrong.

OS: Windows 7
Mantis Version:2.5.1
XAMPP: 5.6.24(xampp-win32-5.6.24-1-VC11-installer)

Apache/2.4.23 (Win32) OpenSSL/1.0.2h PHP/5.6.24
Database client version: libmysql - mysqlnd 5.0.11-dev - 20120503 - $Id: 76b08b24596e12d4553bd41fc93cccd5bac2fe7a $
PHP extension: mysqli
PHP version: 5.6.24

1.Installed XAMPP and then installed Mantis 2.5.1

2. Reference Link: http://www.mantisbt.org/docs/master-1.2 ... tatus.html

In HTDOCS added

Code: Select all

a)  custom_constants_inc.php

<?php
	# Custom status code
	define( 'TESTING', 60 );

b) config_inc.php

Code: Select all

<?php
     # Revised enum string with new 'testing' status
     $g_status_enum_string = '10:new,20:feedback,30:acknowledged,40:confirmed,50:assigned,60:testing,80:resolved,90:closed';

     # Status color additions
     $g_status_colors['testing'] = '#ACE7AE';

c) custom_strings_inc.php

Code: Select all

<?php
# Translation for Custom Status Code: testing
switch( $g_active_language ) {

	case 'french':
		$s_status_enum_string = '10:nouveau,20:commentaire,30:accepté,40:confirmé,50:affecté,60:à tester,80:résolu,90:fermé';

		$s_testing_bug_title = 'Mettre le bogue en test';
		$s_testing_bug_button = 'A tester';

		$s_email_notification_title_for_status_bug_testing = 'Le bogue suivant est prêt à être TESTE.';
		break;

	default: # english
		$s_status_enum_string = '10:new,20:feedback,30:acknowledged,40:confirmed,50:assigned,60:testing,80:resolved,90:closed';

		$s_testing_bug_title = 'Mark issue Ready for Testing';
		$s_testing_bug_button = 'Ready for Testing';

		$s_email_notification_title_for_status_bug_testing = 'The following issue is ready for TESTING.';
		break;
}

3. Restarted XAMPP and Logged in Mantis and checked Manage Configuration< Workflow Transitions and i cannot see the New Status 'TESTING'

I have tried following the Mantis Bug Tracker Administration Guide for adding custom access level as well but the result was the same. Maybe i am wrong but the files i have added seemed not to be considered. How could i check the same?[/color]

So you should use the right manual for this version.
Use the one that comes with your installation or browse online https://www.mantisbt.org/docs/master/en ... l-desktop/

Your first problem is that you did not create the custom_* files in folder config of your installation.

Thank you Atrol for the prompt response,

Following your advise i have made the corrections and i have been able to view the custom status appear , however testing shows as @60@ but when i view the drop down values in Workflow Transition's i am able to see the custom status testing appear. I have searched the forum and found a post (viewtopic.php?f=3&t=21695) , still the observation persists. I am wondering where i could have gone wrong. In the Production install of version 1.2.19 i have been able to add custom statuses without this issue, however i am unable to solve the current problem.

I have included the code that has been placed in Config folder and also screen shot of the manage page. How can i resolve this issue as this is a show stopper for our migration to 2.5.1.

I am not able to reproduce the issue.
I tried with English, German and French (see screen shot) language settings.

And a similar one http://www.mantisbt.org/forums/viewtopi ... =3&t=24869

I had similar issue. In custom_strings_inc.php I had to change:

default: # english
$g_status_enum_string = '10:new,20:feedback,30:acknowledged,40:confirmed,50:assigned,60:in progress,70:in review,80:resolved,85:ready for qa,90:closed';

to

default: # english
$s_status_enum_string = '10:new,20:feedback,30:acknowledged,40:confirmed,50:assigned,60:in progress,70:in review,80:resolved,85:ready for qa,90:closed';

And the the problem was solved

N.B.:$g_status_enum_string was wrong. The correct one is $s_status_enum_string

Hello,

I've the same issue. When I select the added status, I get the errors: APPLICATION WARNING #300: String "CORRECTED_Code_Review_Assignment_PENDING_bug_title" not found APPLICATION WARNING #300: String "CORRECTED_Code_Review_Assignment_PENDING_bug_button" not found. I also tried to set the following in in custom_strings_inc.php:
$s_CORRECTED_Code_Review_Assignment_PENDING_bug_title and $s_CORRECTED_Code_Review_Assignment_PENDING_bug_button but nothing worked. What could be the solution?
Thanks.
