Is it possible to limit status options to a project

Post by jreljac »

Currently I have several projects that I'm tracking. In mantis I have a list of possible status options (~ 15 options)
I'd like to have a set of options per project, basically hiding some status options in some projects.

Is this possible currently? If it is, is there documentation somewhere on how to do this?

@cas you can set status_enum_string per project on Configuration Report page.
Please use Search before posting and read the Manual

It is actually very simple:
1. Go to Manage
2. Go to manage Configuration
3. Select Configuration Report
Here you can create options per product, co:
1. Create Configuration option
stick with All users
Select the project you want to change the status for
Config option = status_enum_string
Type = string
Value = 10:new,20:feedback,30:acknowledged,40:confirmed,50:assigned,80:resolved,90:closed

In the value list you can take out the values you do not want
Save it and it works :mrgreen:
That simple....
