Status name change

[FKR_div_09]

Hello Team!

Our MantisBT is in French. I've never dealt with PHP before, a total noob.

What I want is to modify the names of the different statuses.
I checked https://www.mantisbt.org/docs/master/en ... tatus.html, I assume it's the place to go and the inputs to add, but what I want is not to add any new statuses ; just change the names of the existing ones. Pure cosmetics change only.

Could you kindly explain me where to start on the above link when I just want to modify the names of the statuses, please?

MantisBT version: 2.21.1
PHP version: 7.3.31

Thanks for your support!
François

Just follow the same steps. In case of adding, simply adjust the names

Thanks, Cas.

So, I'm following the whole process described on the help page, create the 'testing' status 60 so that I can create in subfolder 'config' the file custom_strings_inc.php with the right status names in 's_status_enum_string'?

<?php
# Translation for Custom Status Code: testing
switch( $g_active_language ) {

case 'french':
$s_status_enum_string = '10:nouveau (DCH),20:attente infos (Client),30:accepté,40:confirmé,50:affecté (DCH),60:en test,80:résolu (Client),90:fermé';

$s_testing_bug_title = 'Mettre le bogue en test';
$s_testing_bug_button = 'A tester';

$s_email_notification_title_for_status_bug_testing = 'Le bogue suivant est prêt à être TESTE.';
break;

default: # english
$s_status_enum_string = '10:new,20:feedback,30:acknowledged,40:confirmed,50:assigned,60:testing,80:resolved,90:closed';

$s_testing_bug_title = 'Mark issue Ready for Testing';
$s_testing_bug_button = 'Ready for Testing';

$s_email_notification_title_for_status_bug_testing = 'The following issue is ready for TESTING.';
break;
}

Is this s_status_enum_string in this newly created file the only place where I should change the status names? Or this should be modified in other places too?

Thank you!

If you only want to modify the names, you do the following:
create core\custom_strings_inc.php with this content

Code: Select all

<?php
$s_status_enum_string = '10:nouveau (DCH),20:attente infos (Client),30:accepté,40:confirmé,50:affecté (DCH),80:résolu (Client),90:fermé';
?>

Awesome, thank you.

Hello again,

I tried the above, ended up with no change in the statuses but loss of the current statuses color.
Removing custom_strings_inc.php from core folder brought our website back to normal.

I assume I'm missing a few steps in the process, just adding this file won't make the status name change?
Should I do something directly on the web interface Admin-Config pages too?
I have seen warnings for users of translated versions (here: French), perhaps it makes the change a bit more complex?

Edit: Please have a look at the file enclosed, perhaps I should have this added in 'config' subfolder too, so it allows the change, as described in your Admin Guide 7.5.3 https://mantisbt.org/docs/master/en-US/ ... ize.status?

In any case, thanks a lot for the support.

in the config_inc.php you should have:
$g_status_enum_string = '10:nouveau (DCH),20:attente infos (Client),30:accepté,40:confirmé,50:affecté (DCH),80:résolu (Client),90:fermé';
and in the custom_strings_inc.php:
$s_status_enum_string = '10:nouveau (DCH),20:attente infos (Client),30:accepté,40:confirmé,50:affecté (DCH),80:résolu (Client),90:fermé';

That should be enough
