New Issue: Is it possible to populate the description box with a pre-defined template

Added by Aaron Boxer over 15 years ago

Hello,

I would like all developers on my team to file bug reports with the following info:

1. steps to reproduce

2. expected results

3. actual results

Is it possible to automatically enter the above three lines whenever a developer opens a new issue?

Thanks!!

I have resolved this problem by adding my own code into app/views/issues/_form.rhtml file.

There are three tracker types in our redmine system, these are: Bug, Feature and Support.
I need for Template only for Bug tracker type, so the code is as provided below:

<p><%= f.text_field :subject, :size => 80, :required => true %></p>
<p>
<%# INSERTED CODE %>
<% bug_template = '

*Steps to reproduce*:
# 
# 

*Actual Results*: 

*Expected Results*: 

*Note*: ' %>
<%# if issue is a new AND tracker name is 'Bug' %>
<% if @issue.new_record? && (@issue.tracker.name<=>('Bug')).eql?(0) %>
  <%# issue description will set to bug_template in case if it is not a blank %>
  <% @issue.description = bug_template if @issue.description.blank? %>
<% elsif @issue.new_record? %>
  <%# clearing description for all tracker types that are not a Bug, if description is not blank and equals to bug_template %>  
  <% @issue.description = '' if !@issue.description.blank? && bug_template.include?(@issue.description.gsub(/\r\n/m, "\n")) %>
<% end %>
<%# END OF INSERTED CODE %>

If you want the template to be added for each new issue independently of tracker type, the code will be following:

<% if @issue.new_record? %>
  <% @issue.description = bug_template if @issue.description.blank? %>
<% end %>
