Reviewboard 1.7.6 and Adding Comments to a file Attachment
Hello, We have recently started running 1.7.6 and have found that only the original author and anyone with the [ Request | Request Review | Can Change Review Request] permission are allowed to add comments to an attachment (we're reviewing a word doc). Is this intended behavior? In other words, is it envisioned that only the author of the review request is supposed to be able to add comments to an attachment?

File Attachment Comments - Intended Behavior
Hello all, We're currently running RB 1.7.6 and we're seeing that the only people who can add comments to a file attachment are super users and the person who created the review request. Our group thinks that having reviewers adding comments (and issues) to an attachment would be useful. After some digging, adding comments to an attachment appears tied to permission [reviews | review request | Can edit review request]. It would seem that the intent was to only all reviews on attachments, and not comments. Are we simply wanting to use RB in an unintended way? Or is there a bug or changed behavior in later RB releases?

Re: File Attachment Comments - Intended Behavior
Yeah, it's on a published review request. We see the comment button next to the attachment, but when we click it, nothing happens. Unless you're a Superuser, created the request yourself, or have the Can Edit review request permission set. Honestly, i would have expected [ reviews | file attachment comment | Can Add file attachment comment] to have some effect, but it didn't make a difference. The behavior seemed completely odd to me too. We'll see if we can get to a newer version of ReviewBoard. I'll leave out the rant of how we just got this new version... Cheers for the prompt feedback though. If I learn any more, I'll be sure to report back.

Are you sure the review request's draft is published? 1.7.6 is also very old. It's possible there was some bug that has since been fixed. Certainly, the behavior you describe is not how it's supposed to be.

Statistics Extensions
Hello, What ever came of the statistics extension that was being worked on a couple/few years ago? Is it available in some location for the current ReviewBoard release?

Re: Audit facility?
If you need only a simple history of reviews, navigate All Review Requests and click on Show Submitted and you'll see the entire list of all reviews open and closed. If your audit is going to require more advanced stuff, then currently you'd have to accomplish this through some other means. Accessing the SQL database where ReviewBoard was configured to populate its tables would probably be required. -- Want to help the Review Board project?

ReviewBoard publish model results in large quantity of email traffic
Hello! I have a group of about 12 developers who have used ReviewBoard for the past three months. In general, they are really pleased and believe it is a much better tool for source code review than the tool it replaces, which was heavyweight and didn't really support software. One of the team members asked me if there was a way to limit the number of emails they are receiving. Here is the scenario that can flood their inboxes: 1) A developer creates a review, and publishes it 2) Four reviewers create a review, and publish (4 emails generated) 3) The developer goes back and responds to each review, with comments, and must push PUBLISH for each review. 4 emails pushed to every developer. So, I'm wondering, short of turning off email notifications, is there something that we can do to limit the number of emails being sent out? Are we misusing or otherwise misconfiguring the tool? If there's nothing we can do, is there anything on the roadmap to allow email fine tuning (such as, only sending the comment back to the author of the review to which you're responding?) Thanks!

Swtiched to https but email still links to http
This is hopefully a simple question and answer. My site was initially setup http://. I switched it to http*s*://. All if fine and dandy, but the emails generated to users are still pointing to http://. Can anyone point me in the right direction for what I must tweak to get the emails pointing to the https:// flavor of my ReviewBoard instance? I didn't see it in any of the flat files, so potentially it's in the SQL tables? Thanks! -- Want to help the Review Board project? Donate today at http://www.reviewboard.org/donate/ Happy user?

Way too simple. I was making that way harder than it was. Cheers! -- Want to help the Review Board project? Donate today at http://www.reviewboard.org/donate/ Happy user?
