Although I understand the request, I do not think this can be solved by a plugin, this would really require an overhaul on the way custom-fields are defined and presented. If this were to be changed then also one should have the ability to have different groups of custom-fields, the ability to prese...
This is handled within core/columns_api.php. Check out the function function print_column_status. Here you can suppress printing of the text (and/or the user in charge). This would require to make this change every time after updating Mantis. It also expects everybody to exactly know what each color...
For me there are 2 options, either you schedule a job or you make it a manual activity ( 1 action for all tickets). You indicated that a cron job would be problematic (which it is not) so automatic is not an option. Plugins require a trigger which is based on execution of the software not by schedul...
What the plugin could offer at best is an additional option in the admin section to run the script, would that fit better?

- Run it for all projects or only for current active project?
- For issues with which status?

This would be a small script which increases priority if the Duedate is before current date for thickets with a specific status (le...
This actually should be a setting in config_defaults_inc.php. As mentioned above there is a function available sql_ilike but this one is not used.

That plugin is ok for your mantis but will not do what you want. That plugin allows for filtering on multiple bug-id's.
What you want, requires custom coding. What is available is the option to filter on the duedate, perhaps that is useful for you: https://github.com/mantisbt-plugins/DD_Filter
I can help with that but wonder if you cannot use something else better. Priorities are limited and every day that will be increased if nothing happens.
Why not use the Reminder plugin to send an email to the person who needs to take action?
