How to use target version

Post by joost@waxtrapp.com »

I would like to use the Target Version field with my bugs. However when I choose 'Update Issue' I don't see the Target Version field, just the Product Version.

How can I get the target version field in there? They are entered into the project, but don't show up on bug detail pages.

well. I have the same question.
BTW, in my mantis (Mantis 1.0.0a3), I even can't figure out how to entere target version into the project. What version are you using?

well, I looked at mantis' documents and bug tracker, I belive that "target version" is not supported by default.
You can add a custom field named "target version", and you must tell mantis this field only accept "versions " as valid input.
BTW, in 1.0.0.a3, custom fields are currpt.
have a look at

To me, "Target Version" could mean two things: either "the version in which it should be fixed" (to be set by client or manager) or "the version in which it was fixed" (to be set by developer).

I'm assuming that you are all talking about the first option but if not, I have tweaked my code somewhat to enable the second option (using custom fields) if anyone is interested.
