As I have mentioned a bug about Mantis earlier. Here is another weird bug from mantis for which I had to apply a patch from my one. I didn't able to find proper solution to this and this was really shocking. For a bug tracker with the status of Mantis, it should have listed its bugs and solutions in the forums or blogs. It should be easily searchable/traceable. I had to waste my fortnight to find a solution which was again a crap tweak which I always hated for long.
Here the path where I found the patch for this problem
http://www.mantisbt.org/bugs/view.php?id=3398&nbn=3#
This time it was a case of limiting the bug notes for the email notification through Mantis. I made the changes on the mantis user preferences.
By my problem increases two folds now. The change did took effect but on few systems refusing other systems. So I had decided to resolve this problem manually
The default bug notes limit is 0 in mantis setting. You can see it in screen 1
Screen 1
I had got the file “config_defaults_inc.php” in mantis directory where i found all the settings of mantis. Searched and updated the appropriate code setting default bug notes limit to 1
You can see in screen 2
Screen 2
Then I reset the user preferences and confirmed that user preferences screen on browser is showing the default bug notes limit to 1, because I have already set the default bug notes limit in code.
And finally I had got the needful. Look it at the following image -
Screen 3
That is the only way I had found to solve it and get email notes according to my need.
Stay tuned up to get information with mantis related tasks in coming weeks.
Good luck to all.
