Summary

These are the settings that are used to configuration options related to the Summary page. This page contains statistics about the bugs in MantisBT.

$g_reporter_summary_limit

Limit how many reporters to show in the summary page. This is useful when there are dozens or hundreds of reporters. The default value is 10.

$g_date_partitions

An array of date lengths to count bugs by (in days) for the summary by date. The default is to count for 1, 2, 3, 7, 30, 60, 90, 180, and 365.

$g_summary_category_include_project

Specifies whether category names should be preceeded by project names (eg: [Project] Category) when the summary page is viewed for all projects. This is useful in the case where category names are common accross projects. The default is OFF.

$g_view_summary_threshold

Specifies the access level required to view the summary page. Default is VIEWER.

$g_severity_multipliers

An array of multipliers which are used to determine the effectiveness of reporters based on the severity of bugs. Higher multipliers will result in an increase in reporter effectiveness. The default multipliers are: 

$g_severity_multipliers = array ( FEATURE => 1,
                                                                          TRIVIAL => 2,
                                                                          TEXT => 3,
                                                                          TWEAK => 2,
                                                                          MINOR => 5,
                                                                          MAJOR => 8,
                                                                          CRASH => 8,
                                                                          BLOCK => 10 );
The keys of the array are severity constants from constant_inc.php or from custom_constants_inc.php if you have custom severities defined. The values are integers, typically in the range of 0 to 10. If you would like for a severity to not count towards effectiveness, set the value to 0 for that severity.

$g_resolution_multipliers

An array of multipliers which are used to determine the effectiveness of reporters based on the resolution of bugs. Higher multipliers will result in a decrease in reporter effectiveness. The only resolutions that need to be defined here are those which match or exceed $g_bug_resolution_not_fixed_threshold. The default multipliers are: 

$g_resolution_multipliers = array( UNABLE_TO_DUPLICATE => 2,
                                                                           NOT_FIXABLE => 1,
                                                                           DUPLICATE => 3,
                                                                           NOT_A_BUG => 5,
                                                                           SUSPENDED => 1,
                                                                           WONT_FIX => 1 );
The keys of the array are resolution constants from constant_inc.php or from custom_constants_inc.php if you have custom resolutions defined. Resolutions not included here will be assumed to have a multiplier value of 0. The values are integers, typically in the range of 0 to 10. If you would like for a resolution to not count towards effectiveness, set the value to 0 for that resolution or remove it from the array completely. Note that these resolution multipliers are stacked on top of the severity multipliers. Therefore by default, a user reporting many duplicate bugs at severity level BLOCK will be far worse off than a user reporting many duplicate bugs at severity level FEATURE.
