 In versions prior to 1.1.0a1, using custom functions was the only option to customize the columns to be viewed in View Issues page.  For more details about this option this [[http://www.futureware.biz/blog/index.php?title=title_1&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1|blog entry]].
 ===== Using Configuration =====

   * Set the "Value" field to an array of the column names to be shown.  See "Column Names" section for a complete list of options.  An example:
 <code php>
-array ( 'selection', 'edit', 'priority', 'id', 'sponsorship_total', 'bugnotes_count', 'attachment', 'category', 'severity', 'status', 'last_updated', 'summary' );
+array ( 'selection', 'edit', 'priority', 'id', 'sponsorship_total', 'bugnotes_count', 'attachment', 'category_id', 'severity', 'status', 'last_updated', 'summary' );
 </code>
   * Click "Set Configuration Option".
-I found this work fine in the 1.1.1 version but using the 1.1.2 version I had to be extremely verbose like
-view_issues_page_columns = array(0 =>id,1 =>reporter_id,2=>handler_id,3=>Severity,4=>Priority,5=>category)
+===== Changes in 1.2 =====
+The "Manage Configuration" page has changed behaviour in 1.1.2 because of the the security fix detailed in [[http://www.mantisbt.org/bugs/view.php?id=8976|bug 8976]]
+Since at least 1.2 the name for the Category column has been changed from "category" to "category_id"
+The correct value to use for the above example starting from 1.2 is:
+<code php>
+array( selection, edit, priority, id, sponsorship_total, bugnotes_count, attachment, category_id, severity, status, last_updated, summary )
