well there ya go. :) nope i havent, do i just need to upload the new files? theres no other changes are there?

There are a few template changes (which should fix the display problem on IE, although it's clearly IE's fault) and some typos in phrases corrected.

great - just did it, works perfectly!

Thanks Kirby!

OK, I've had some time to use this on a day to day basis now and the IE problem does seem fixed. I've had no other issues. Thanks for that!

I have it installed and working on a new forum some of us are putting together:

Click on the "List of things to do" and it goes to the bugs system.

I installed using HTL. Now what can needs to be done to get this thing out of alpha/beta?

Do you want people to suggest more features?

Anyway, it is working and was a simple install with HTL.

Too bad its password protected :(

I love this hack! Thanks!

A couple suggestions for the future (of course):

Bug Types should each have their own specific severities. Say you have the default - Bug, ToDo, and Feature Request.

For severity, you have trivial, minor, major, and so on.

It would be nice if you could create a specific class of severities for each Bug Type. For example, I could have a bug type of Hardware, and when that option is selected, only severities for that type are listed (in submit bugs). That way you could create severity levels specific to the type of bug. The hypothetical Hardware Bug Type could have it's own set like "Video Error" or "Hard Drive error", etc. Right now they will all be listed together, and that will get confusing for people submitting bugs.

Also - and perhaps I am missing this part - where can I configure specific permissions? It'd be nice if you could assign certain things to users, such as the ability to post only certain types of bugs, etc. Also, when submitting bugs it'd be nice to give certain usergroups the ability to only add a bug and make a comment, and not assign it to anyone or assign the state.

Other than that, this is well on the way to becoming a class-act bug tracking system. Thanks again.

> not assign it to anyone or assign the state.
Only members of the bug administrator group can change assignments, stetes, etc.

I don't think i'm gonna make different severities for each bug type. I want to keep this simple.
If you want a fulll-featured bug-tracker better go for BugZilla, Mantis or smth. like this.

Great Hack.....I installed the Hack Tracking Log and followed it with this one. Installing both took less than 10 min and everything works like a charm. Great feature for an engineering board :)

My only suggestion for improvement would be a couple of user defined fields that you could add items to. I am going to alter mine to add categories....versions...etc.
