See the Change log.

Installation

Requirements

The plugin requires MantisBT version 2.0.0 or later.

For legacy 1.2.x installations, please download version 0.1.2. MantisBT 1.3.x is not supported.

Setup Instructions

1. Download or clone a copy of the plugin's code.
2. Copy the plugin (the CustomizeEmailSubject/ directory) into your Mantis installation's plugins/ directory.
3. While logged in as an administrator, go to Manage → Manage Plugins.
4. In the Available Plugins list, you'll find the CustomizeEmailSubject plugin; click the Install link.
5. In the Installed Plugins list, click on the CustomizeEmailSubject plugin to configure it.

Configuration

The email subject can be customized on the plugin's config page.

The following variables can be used in combination with any other text, except the pipe symbol (|):

• project_name
• bug_id
• summary
• handler
• priority
• severity
• reproducibility
• status
• resolution
• projection
• category
• reason

The pipe symbol is used to wrap the variables, to separate them from regular text, e.g. [|project_name| |bug_id| |status|]: |summary|.
