Mantis Bug Tracker - Forums

Here's something I figured out that may help others -- I was struggling with trying to understand why notifications were not going out for new bugs based on access levels, even though I thought I had set up the Email Notifications settings correctly in the Configuration interface. I tried adding the...

I have just figured out the problem is due to the custom date format bug previously reported as #0022558. When I remove the following lines from our config_inc.php, the default for due_date works. $g_short_date_format = 'd-M-Y'; $g_normal_date_format = 'd-M-Y H:i'; $g_complete_date_format = 'd-M-Y H...

A further wrinkle: After the user submits the issue with the due_date filled in, when we try to advance the issue to the next state (using Change Status To), the due_date is cleared on the change status screen. I think I am going to submit a bug for this behavior. The users are not happy because the...

Is this considered fixed? I am seeing a similar issue with version 2.25.2. Here's the situation: I recently set up a new MantisBT system using version 2.22.2 and set the following in config_inc.php: $g_due_date_update_threshold = 10; $g_due_date_view_threshold = 10; $g_due_date_default = '+14 days';...

I believe there is a way to create a custom enumerated field to store this information, then use a custom function to retrieve a list of users to populate the list. For example, I have the following custom function in my /config/custom_functions_inc.php file (which I had to create): # Construct an e...

Let me explain further what I am trying to do. I have created a custom enumeration field named Verified By, and I am using the following custom function to populate it: function custom_function_override_enum_users() { $t_users = project_get_all_user_rows( helper_get_current_project(), ANYBODY ); $t_...

Oh my goodness, thank you and sorry to bother you with such a stupid issue! I stared at that code a long time and never saw the extra r.

I am a little disappointed that I have not heard from anyone about this issue, if only to tell me that my code was wrong. I now have the following in my custom_functions_inc.php file, but it is still not working: function custom_function_overrride_issue_create_validate( $p_new_issue_data ) { if ( $p...

I am sorry to bother you. I know I am a noob but this is driving me crazy. I successfully added this hook to my custom_function_inc.php file and it is working: /** * Hook to validate Validate field settings before resolving * verify that the Fixed In Version is set (if versions of the product exist)...

Is there a way to write a custom function that would set the default value for a custom field? I have written such a function and placed it in custom_functions_inc.php but it does not appear to be running. What would I have to name the function, and how would I invoke it in the Default Value field o...

I am still a noob, so I don't know whether this is expected behavior, a bug, or a permissions problem. Here is the issue: When a user with Viewer access level clicks View Issues, then clicks Print Reports, the resulting Viewing Issues page does not include checkboxes in the left-most column of the d...

I think I figured it out. It appears that the Sequence number is not set globally, but is set on individual projects individually. If you select a new project to link the custom field to, and enter a Sequence number, that Sequence number will be applied to the newly linked project. It will not be re...

I'm a noob, so it is possible I am not doing this right, but... When I am adding or editing a Custom Field on manage_custom_field_edit_page.php, when I enter a number for the Sequence, then click Link Custom Field, the number does not get saved. (The Sequence field is list in the Link Custom Field t...

Just wanted to say that I was experiencing similar issues with the MantisBT installation on Windows, using MySQL 8.0: Installing Database: Attempting to connect to database as user Possible Problem: Database user does not have access to the database ( The server requested authentication method unkno...
