It is fairly simple to add custom box views in Mantis 0.19. Say you want to add a view which contains bugs of the category 'UI' which are assigned to the current user. Internally, we'll call this box view 'ass_ui'. 1. First, edit core/my_view_inc.php --- Find where the filters are defined, (where all the $c_filter arrays are assigned - starts on line 37 in Mantis 0.19) and add a new one like such [1] : $c_filter['ass_ui'] = array( 'show_category' => Array ( '0' => 'UI' ), 'show_severity' => Array ( '0' => 'any' ), 'show_status' => Array ( '0' => 'any' ), 'highlight_changed' => $t_default_show_changed, 'reporter_id' => Array ( '0' => 'any' ), 'handler_id' => Array ( '0' => $t_current_user_id ), 'show_resolution' => Array ( '0' => 'any' ), 'show_build' => Array ( '0' => 'any' ), 'show_version' => Array ( '0' => 'any' ), 'hide_status' => Array ( '0' => $t_bug_resolved_status_threshold ), 'user_monitor' => Array ( '0' => 'any' ) ); $url_link_parameters['ass_ui'] = 'handler_id=' . $t_current_user_id . '&hide_status=' . $t_bug_resolved_status_threshold . '&show_category[]=UI'; 2. Edit lang/strings_english.txt --- Find the line : # my_view_page.php and add the following: $s_my_view_title_ass_ui = 'My UI Bugs'; 3. Edit config_inc.php --- Change the $g_my_view_boxes array to add 'ass_ui' : $g_my_view_boxes = array( 'ass_ui' => '1', ...); You're done ! Anselm [1] You can also add custom fields to the filter. Use the following syntax: 'custom_fields' => Array('<your customfield id>' => Array( '0' => '<your value'>)

I use Mantis Version 1.0.0rc2 and changed a lot of things... I do not auto-assign new bugs to a person. To assign new bugs to people who are responsible for fixing it, that´s the job of our Manager. So I wanted that only all users with the access_level MANAGER or higher see on their login_page (my_view_page.php) the bugs which are not assigned to anybody. 1 Make sure that in the file /config_inc.php in the var $g_my_view_boxes 'unassigned' is activated. Example: $g_my_view_boxes = array ('assigned' => '1', 'unassigned' => '2', 'reported' => '0', 'resolved' => '0', 'recent_mod' => '0', 'monitored' => '0', 'feedback' => '0', 'verify' => '0'); In the same file (/config_inc.php) add a new unique global var: # controls which access-levels see the unassigned bugs $g_my_view_unassigned_threshold = MANAGER; 2 In the file /my_view_page.php near line 80 between 'else if ( $t_box_title == 'assigned' && ..... { ... }' and 'else if ( $t_box_title == 'monitored' && ..... { ... }' add a new 'else if'-condition. My Example: ... ## show only for the Users with 'g_my_view_unassigned_threshold else if ( $t_box_title == 'unassigned' && ( current_user_is_anonymous() OR !access_has_project_level( config_get( 'my_view_unassigned_threshold' ), $t_project_id, $t_current_user_id ) ) ) { $t_number_of_boxes = $t_number_of_boxes - 1; } It works fine. Only with one exception. Our testers see now the 'Assigned to Me'-box not only on the left side of the screen. It goes from the left to the right side. With the appearance of more boxes than the 'Assigned to Me'-box, this problem doesn´t appear. My experience in php is very very low, so I don´t know wheter that´s all correct, but it works. I suppose that in the next update, the file /config_inc.php can be taken over. The changes in the file /my_view_page.php will will have to be done again and it´s not sure that it works again. Hope I could help someone. Thank you for Mantis !!! MfG **micha**

To change the sort order of the boxes, go to the $c_filter assignment section (like anselm listed in his first post), and add a line like this 'sort' => 'severity' So, the section for the 'assigned' list would look like this afterwards: $c_filter['assigned'] = array( 'show_category' => Array ( '0' => META_FILTER_ANY ), 'show_severity' => Array ( '0' => META_FILTER_ANY ), 'show_status' => Array ( '0' => META_FILTER_ANY ), 'highlight_changed' => $t_default_show_changed, 'reporter_id' => Array ( '0' => META_FILTER_ANY ), 'handler_id' => Array ( '0' => $t_current_user_id ), 'show_resolution' => Array ( '0' => META_FILTER_ANY ), 'show_build' => Array ( '0' => META_FILTER_ANY ), 'show_version' => Array ( '0' => META_FILTER_ANY ), 'hide_status' => Array ( '0' => $t_bug_resolved_status_threshold ), 'user_monitor' => Array ( '0' => META_FILTER_ANY ), 'sort' => 'severity' ); Other sort criteria are 'id', 'category', 'date_submitted', 'last_updated', 'priority', etc. (probably all the fields from mantis_bug_table in admin\schema.php)

I'm having trouble creating a filter on the my_view_page.php that filters on a custom field. I have a field called Unit Tester that contains the name of the developer that tested the code. 1. I've modified config_inc.php to add a new view box: Code: $g_my_view_boxes = array ( 'assigned' => '1', 'unassigned' => '2', 'reported' => '3', 'resolved' => '4', 'recent_mod' => '5', 'monitored' => '6', 'feedback' => '0', 'verify' => '0', 'ready_test' => '7', ; 2. I added the title text to custom_strings_inc.php Code: $s_my_view_title_ready_test = "Waiting For Me To Unit Test"; The part I'm having trouble with is changing core/my_view_inc.php. Initially I tried Code: $c_filter['ready_test'] = array( 'custom_Unit Tester' => Array('0' => $t_current_user_id), 'show_category' => Array ( '0' => META_FILTER_ANY ), 'show_severity' => Array ( '0' => META_FILTER_ANY ), 'show_status' => Array ( '0' => META_FILTER_ANY ), 'highlight_changed' => $t_default_show_changed, 'reporter_id' => Array ( '0' => META_FILTER_ANY ), 'handler_id' => Array ( '0' => META_FILTER_ANY ), 'show_resolution' => Array ( '0' => META_FILTER_ANY ), 'show_build' => Array ( '0' => META_FILTER_ANY ), 'show_version' => Array ( '0' => META_FILTER_ANY ), 'hide_status' => Array ( '0' => $t_hide_status_default ), 'user_monitor' => Array ( '0' => META_FILTER_ANY ), ; $url_link_parameters['ready_test'] = 'custom_Unit Tester=' . $t_current_user_id; I also tried substituting "Unit Tester" for "custom_Unit Tester" but it didn't work. After searching I saw note 225 in and attempted: Code: $c_filter['ready_test'] = array( 'custom_fields' => Array('custom_Unit Tester' => Array( '0' => $t_current_user_id)), 'show_category' => Array ( '0' => META_FILTER_ANY ), 'show_severity' => Array ( '0' => META_FILTER_ANY ), 'show_status' => Array ( '0' => META_FILTER_ANY ), 'highlight_changed' => $t_default_show_changed, 'reporter_id' => Array ( '0' => META_FILTER_ANY ), 'handler_id' => Array ( '0' => META_FILTER_ANY ), 'show_resolution' => Array ( '0' => META_FILTER_ANY ), 'show_build' => Array ( '0' => META_FILTER_ANY ), 'show_version' => Array ( '0' => META_FILTER_ANY ), 'hide_status' => Array ( '0' => $t_hide_status_default ), 'user_monitor' => Array ( '0' => META_FILTER_ANY ), ; $url_link_parameters['ready_test'] = 'custom_unit tester=' . $t_current_user_id; I tried substituting "Unit Tester" for "custom_Unit Tester" for this too but still no luck. Do you know what I'm doing wrong? Thanks, Kira (kira.fernandes@gmail.com)
