Version Numbers Fields Missing in V2.8.0

Post by bannerks »

I installed the latest version 2.8.0 (schema 209) and there are no version number input fields (product version, target version, fixed in version).
That then meant features like change log and roadmap did not work etc.
I have had a web developer work through and fix this but i was surprised and don't see it mentioned on the outstanding bugfixes etc.

Is this a known issue that will be fixed in the next release? or have i done something wrong?
I ask so i know if i should upgrade at the next release.


Thanks
Kerrin

Did you create versions for projects.
The fields do not appear if you did not create versions before.
You can change this behavior by changing setting $g_show_product_version from AUTO to ON.

hi,atrol,can you tell me which file can be changed 'setting $g_show_product_version from AUTO to ON.'
my puzzle is,when a new reporter want to report issue,can't select 'product version'field which has been defined by its project,
but,a developer can select 'product version' and 'target version' normally.

eager for your help,thanks a lot.

I assume there is no difference between 1.2.17 and 2.8.0.
The difference might be, that your versions x.y.3, x.y.2 and x.y.1 are not set to "released".
It's the default setting that reporters are not allowed to enter issues for non released versions.
You could change this by adding the following line to file config_inc.php

Code: Select all

$g_report_issues_for_unreleased_versions_threshold = REPORTER;
