Mantis Bug Tracker - Forums

i want to add three new roles/access level in mantis and then define access for thise two roles..
were do i go to add new rols so that they will be available in the User Administration meny and can be assigned to a new user?
im suning Mantis 1.1.0

You need to change $g_access_level_enum_string; i.e:
$g_access_levels_enum_string = '10:viewer,25:reporter,40:updater,55:developer,60:task manager,70:manager,90:administrator';
You should put modified version in your config_inc.php.

Here I've added task manager role. then you need to find
$s_access_level_enum_string and add it there too.

Now go to administration page and set rights, etc.

what do u mean by that i have to put the modified version in config_inc.php?
if u meant that i have to put <b>$g_access_levels_enum_string = '10:viewer,25:reporter,40:updater,55:developer,60:task manager,70:manager,90:administrator';
</b> in config_inc.php then i have done that..
and
i have also modified the string in: config_default_inc.php and in the local translation file


after the modifications i get: @60@ in the access-level menu instead of Task Manager

what did i do wrong?

value from config_inc.php overwrites the one from config_default_inc.php. You shouldnt touch config_default_inc.php.

@60@ means that Mantis didnt find 60 in $s_access_level_enum_string in your strings_*.txt.
Check this again

thankyou..
its working now

Great

So...

What is the resolution to the @60@ problem that you experienced? And how did you get it to "it's working now..."??
Searching this forum for @60@ is impossible.

i forgot to add the rolls in language file
it works now after i did that

This was really helpful.

I have a role created which like this

ADMINISTRATOR < COORDINATOR > MANAGER

COORDINATOR is in the middle of Manager and a Admin.

Now I want to give the "COORDINATOR" a privilege to

1. Create Users
2. Create Project
3. Manage Custom Fields

And most other things that a ADMIN can do but a MANAGER cannot do.

I am getting a error when updated with the THRESHOLD in the "config_defaults_in.php"

spacomp you should never edit config_defaults_in.php. All changes must go in config_inc.php. This is because the values in config_inc.php will overwrite those in config_defaults_in. And also if something goes wrong you will need the defaults file to restore mantis to original state.

Can someone tell me what is the significance of the numbers before each role? e.g 10:viewer,25:reporter,40:updater. Does these numbers matter? If i were to add a new role what number should i put?

the above message suffered linkrot since 2013 (go figure!)
