Hey Patrick,

you can try to disable the "required"-behaviour of the description field by removing it from the following line in app/models/issue.rb:

from:

validates_presence_of :subject, :description, :priority, :project, :tracker, :author, :status

to:

validates_presence_of :subject, :priority, :project, :tracker, :author, :status

I don't think that there is an built-in-option for doing that.

Best,
Martin

Is there an option somewhere to make the "Description" field of an issue optional? Sometimes the title contains enough information to not require a description.

See Issue #1014, I created a patch to make description optional but it hasn't been added to the codebase yet.

Eric

Thank you!
