Mantis Bug Tracker - Forums

I have another policy-oriented response to this. I see people resolving tickets at the wrong time too, and it sometimes really annoys me. The question is : What exactly is Resolved? Is a ticket resolved when the developer finishes coding? What status should be used after In Progress? This is where w...

You're talking about Workflow Transitions. Select the project in the top-right of the tracker. Go to Manage > Manage Configuration > Workflow Transitions. The grid can be intimidating but it's very simple. Just look at each row/status as "this is where a ticket is now". Then in each column...

I've brought this up previously and got an answer like "Well, we've done MantisBT for years and have never heard anyone complain so won't put this on the list." I get really aggravated with responses like that too. They discourage innovation and user engagement. HOWEVER, for this specific...

THIS is why we created this part of the forum. I freakin Love when this process works!

I believe this is the plugin?
https://github.com/mantisbt-plugins/EasyEnter
That looks useful.

I suggest you contact the author. His address is in EasyEnter.php.
Please ask him to post a solution to this forum!
Thanks.

I use this sequence in KeePass for some Mantis sites: {DELAY=60}{HOME}+{END}{UserName}{ENTER}{DELAY 1000}{HOME}+{END}{Password}{ENTER} This sequence takes much more time but it is much more detailed and never fails with any Mantis site. {DELAY=80}{HOME}+{END}{DELAY 500}{UserName}{DELAY 1000}{ENTER}{...

To be clear, are you trying to move a ticket from Resolved to Deployed?
Based on the workflow settings, no status other than Resolved allows moving forward to Deployed ... which makes sense.

Yes ... if I understand you correctly. From what I understand about what you're doing, you need the events for after user data has been entered, and before it has been posted to the database. See details under: https://www.mantisbt.org/docs/master/en-US/Developers_Guide/html/dev.eventref.bug.action....

I think that's exactly what I've been describing. I will fork it and start looking.
Thanks @cas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

EVENT_UPDATE_BUG (Execute) : "This event allows plugins to perform post-processing of the bug data structure after being updated."

FWIW, I just looked through it closely and it looks good to me. I see you don't have an In Progress status, so tasks go directly from Assigned to Resolved and you don't care exactly when someone is actually working on it - if it's assigned then it's assumed to be in progress. Other than this questio...

Yes, old and ongoing very painful issue.

Questions about plugins might get more views or responses in the Plugins forums.

Yes, Queries would be good to simply report data. But we would lose the formatting and functionality provided by the View page. For example, clicking on fields, and especially mass updates of selected records. There still needs to be a link between the fields selected for a query and the fields whic...

I'd like to understand how others use Change Logs between "published" updates. Example: v1 and v2 are major releases. v1.1 and v1.2 are minor updates v1.1.1 and v1.1.2 are patches which are released as required but they will appear in 1.2 when it is released. Someone enters at ticket again...
