not required custom fields with min length

Hello list,

I just installed MantisBT for the first time and my first impression is
really good. I love it from the start.

My question:

I added a custom field (reference number to another ticket system),
which is optional (because there is not neccessarily a ticket in the
other system).

Now I want to define the length of the number as a trivial test. But
that does not work; as it seems "optional" and "minimal length" do not
work together.

How can I configure that? If not possible I would like to make that a
feature request: Accept an empty entry if optional, even if there are
other constraints.

Regards,

Emil

customizing field

Hi,
I am using mantis 1.0.0.a3.
I don't want few of the fields provided with mantis by default like "OS", "OS Version", "platform", as for my project those fields are not useful.
1. I want those field to be named something else. How is it possible?
2. Also, I would like to know if I can add extra field there?
I tried doing
Manage -> Manage Custom Fields
and adding a field, but that name is not visible any where, I can't even see if that addition of field added or not.
I hope i have provided sufficient information. if you need to know anything else please let me know.

regards
Abhishek Kumar

You can send this user a reminder. Look at the "Send reminder" link
above the Severity field (between "Jump to Notes" and "Wiki". If this
link is not available for you, verify and adjust the reminder settings
in your config.inc.php file.

Hope this helps!

First things first, you should *really* consider upgrading to a newer 
version of MantisBT.  The current stable release is version 1.1.6, and 
should provide a complete upgrade path.  This version not only has new 
features, but many security and bug fixes as well.

There is a configuration setting in the latest versions that allows you 
to disable those fields.

After you create a custom field, you need to "link" the custom field to 
every project that you want the field to appear in.

Re: customizing field

John

You said "There is a configuration setting in the latest versions that allows you
to disable those fields."

I looked through the online documentation and didn't find a reference to this. Can you point me to the section where disabling fields is explained.

Thanks

KM

Customising the 'profiles'


Hey guys.

Are the profiles customizable? It'd be cool to have an extra filed and possibly rename a couple of the
existing ones?

Also, when you use a global profile is it possible to have it populate the fields on the form?

thank you!

Subdirectories inheriting Properties - Versions etc

Hi, is there a way to create it so that a sub-project inherits properties from its parent?

I'd like to have several sub directories that have versions and be able to add/mark as released in a nice central place?

Thank you!

Re: Subdirectories inheriting Properties - Versions etc

Ok, thanks.

Do you know if this is even something that people (other than me) would like to see? or perhaps i am using Mantis incorrectly to request such things?

Thanks.

In the 1.2.x development versions, sub-projects can inherit categories from
their parents, but we have no such mechanism in place for other properties.
