Re: [rt-users] The RT Wiki - Restructure (start using categories?)

2011-12-01 Thread Bart
Hi,

To summarize:

   - Category page for user profiles (in order to automatically link to RT
   users)
   - User manual needs special treatment (needs some pondering)
   - For the RT config, a separate page for each configuration option. But
   they need to be grouped based on a specific topic.
   - FAQ category page, listing all FAQ items as an option. (makes it easy
   to add just about any page with a brilliant explanation to the FAQ)

And last but not least, make sure to chop things into smaller pieces.
(basically approach this as a project with milestones, etc.)

For the pieces, I believe we're already kinda working towards it :-)

   1. Think of a structure with the categories in mind.
   2. Think of other things that will help make the wiki better. (usage of
   Wikia special features, RSS feeds, etc.)
   3. Create the steps in which we'll transform the current wiki towards
   what we want it to be.
  1. First step could/should be to clean all current category pages
  (fresh start).
  2. Create the new categorie pages  structure.
  3. With the Uncategorized special page, work towards categorizing
  all wiki pages:
 1. With the goal to categorized everything.
  4. Modify the front page to display the new structure/category pages.
  5. . . .
   4. And once the steps which we should take are clear we can start doing
   stuff ^_^

Something like that at least.

 Hi,

 Idea is good. Here are some ideas about categorizing and where people
 with MediaWiki experience can help kickstart content improvements.

 I think good and easy point to start is to organize installation guides.

 There are lot of pages that are sort of user profiles. They should get
 particular category, for example OldStyleUserProfile. Some of them are
 linked from http://requesttracker.wikia.com/wiki/RTUsers. May be we
 can replace this page with generated page that links to wikia's user
 profiles.

 User Manual is a special beast. It should be continuous reading and at
 the same time splitted into smaller topics. I believe MediaWiki has
 some tools to include content of pages into other pages.

 Every config option and right should get a page matching its name,
 however they should get included into other blocks. For example
 WebDomain, WebPath, WebPort and couple of options should be described
 as one thing. For example OwnTicket and ownership related rights
 should be described as one thing. I don't know media wiki best
 practices to organize such thing.

 FAQ may win from better structure. At this moment it's not very managable.

 There are more, but enough for today. I think that if you find a good
 solution for some particular problem and describe how it should be
 done then people would help you clean cages and normalize content.
 Just split things into smaller steps.

 Since this is just a concept I've sort of just looked at the current wiki
 and tried to gather some basic topics, what I want to achieve with this
 concept is to get input from others so that we can improve it further:
  - RT Basics
 - User Manual
 - Custom Fields
 - Articles
 - REST
 - RT Tool
 - RT Cron Tool
  - RT Installation (rough categories so that people can link install
  guides to an OS categorie, no more/no less)
 - Linux
 - FreeBSD
 - Other
 - Manual
  - RT Config: (a categorie for each major release)
 - RT 4
 - RT 3.8
 - RT 3.6
  - Plugins:
 - A categorie page for all plugins! This way you can link
 scrips/configs/other goodies for a plugin to that specific categorie
 page.
  - Scrips:
 - Basically a summary of all scrips available for RT.
  - Automation
 At this point I'm blank on ideas, I'll just leave it at this and see what
 responses there are. I'm pretty sure this list can be better/structured
 better, but you have to start somewhere ^_~
 *--- Rough plan of action ---*
 This is a rather rough plan for setting up the structure:
  - Remove all current categories (double check that the categorie pages
  don't contain content of any kind).
  - Add every single page currently in the wiki to a new categorie called
  Archive.



 Might I suggest instead creating a page called restructure todo list and
 put a list of all the current pages on that page... that way the current
 structure and organization, to the extent it is useful or familiar, is
 maintained and yet we have a todo list to work off of?

 cheers,
 ram



 - This sounds ugly but it's an easy way of keeping track of all the
 wiki pages that still need better categorization.
 - Basically a todo list, anything still in there needs to be
 categorized.
 - The idea is to do a few articles each day and eventually everything
 will be nicely categorized.
  - Create all the categories which have been though of, make sure that
  theres's at least some basic information on the categorie page.
  - Modify the home page to, at first, also contain the new categorie
  structure (keep the old links for now).
  - Start categorizing anything that's still in under Archive.
  - And last but not least, at a certain point modify the front page to
  only contain the new categorie structure.
 So, those are some ideas.
 Time for everyone to shoot at them ^_~

[rt-users] Removing CC after initial ticket submission

2011-12-01 Thread Daniel G. Rohan
Hi all,

I'm trying to get an idea of how this would be accomplished.

What we're hoping to do is modify one of our queues so that if a requestor CC's 
someone on the initial ticket, that CC will be removed from all subsequent 
comments/correspondance. I took a quick look through the RT contributions 
archive, but I couldn't see any scrips that would match this functionality. Is 
anyone out there aware of anything like this or have a hint as to how this 
could be done? We need this to be done only for a single queue, so modifying 
RT_SiteConfig.pm isn't really an option for us.

Many thanks,

Dan Rohan

Re: [rt-users] Removing CC after initial ticket submission

2011-12-01 Thread Bart
Hi,

I guess you could make a scrip which launches during ticket creation
(Transaction Batch) which removes anyone in the CC for that ticket.

Since it launches in batch it will do it's work after the ticket is
created, so those in CC would still be fairly easy to add if needed during
replies.

This scrip does the oposite but might give you some ideas:

Re: [rt-users] What right gives Configuration in the left hand menu

Hi Kenn,

Yes, that is what I was trying to accomplish. I wasn't giving SuperUser
to the group, the group name was queuename Super Users meaning they
have elevated privleges over a typical queuename Users member.

I just couldn't find the ShowConfigTab I remember reading about that
change when we moved from 3.2.1 -- 3.8.10 but for whatever reason I
couldn't find it. I obviously didn't look at the global group rights... :(

Thanks for your responses guys.

 Unless you trust those user with EVERYTHING, I wouldn't grant SuperUser

 Hope this helps.

 I'm trying to allow a group of users to have access to configure their

 need some direction...

 Let's say I have a queue called Support, I create a group called
 Support Users and use that to assign the rights to be able to update
 tickets, own tickets, etc etc for that queue.

 I create a group called Support Super Users and this group I want to
 have the ability to edit the queue's templates, scrips, custom fields etc.

 I thought you would just go into the configuration tab, select the queue,
 and give the Support Super Users group access to things like Modify
 Custom Field, Modify Scrips Modify Template, etc.

 This doesn't add the configuration menu item on the user's interface...

 How does that happen? Are they supposed to go through something else to
 modify the custom field attributes of a queue? Or the scrips of a queue?
 etc?

 Thanks!

[rt-users] notify colleagues about a ticket in RT web interface (not by mail)

2011-12-01 Thread Stefan Vollmar
Hi,

we have just started using RT and come across this problem: a ticket has been 
opened (by one of our users via a simplified web interface or internally), 
somebody in the support group has started working on it (she/he is now the 
owner) but finds that other colleagues should be involved at some stage. Now 
using a CC or AdminCC with the comment action can be used to notify the 
colleague that help would be appreciated with this case. However, this 
notification is mail-based and (in our case) some members of the support group 
will look at the RT web interface more often than at their mail clients - but 
the ticket will not show in either of their default ticket lists (it is neither 
unowned, nor is it owned by them). Is there a recommended way to notify 
regular RT users (in the RT web interface) that they should look into a ticket 
- other than generating mail notifications for them or making them the owner of 
a case?

Many thanks in advance for any help with this!

[rt-users] A little question about Standalone Server Mode

implement the RT on the system.


I'm doing a pilot test with RT on a virtual machine. Exactly I first 
doing a 'Standalone Server Mode' configuration. So I put this parameters 
when I installed the RT:


./configure --with-my-user-group --with-db-type=mysql 
--enable-layout=inplace --with-devel-mode


After that, I installed RT and BD perfectly, without errors.


So, I run RT in MVL and I can't send email to anybody.
My question is: from a'Standalone Server Mode' its possibly send mail?
If possible, how do you send with sendmail? I have to put some 
parameters in SiteConfig ?

 'Standalone Server Mode' configuration. So I put this parameters when I
 installed the RT:

 ./configure --with-my-user-group --with-db-type=mysql
 --enable-layout=inplace --with-devel-mode

 After that, I installed RT and BD perfectly, without errors.


 So, I run RT in MVL and I can't send email to anybody.
 My question is: from a'Standalone Server Mode' its possibly send mail?
 If possible, how do you send with sendmail? I have to put some parameters in
 SiteConfig ?

Hi,

Any of those basic reporting tools can be replaced with saved charts
and dashboards in RT4.

 Hi


 In RT 3.8.x we have a tools menu with some basic function of reporting. I
 don't see this functions in RT 4.

 Should I install some module to have it back ?

Maybe (no It's certain) I'm totaly stupid, but even with all right I don't
see how can I have charts in RT4 ...

Re: [rt-users] Create another QuickSeach panel ?

2011-12-01 Thread Vance Walsh
This is exactly what I was looking for, thank you.

Is there something special I would need to do permissions wise to remove
columns? I seem to have no edit option and I am not sure if that is a
permissions issue or a part of the module config.

In short we do not used Stalled, we have multiple other stalled status we use
which are showing up as well.

[rt-users] [rt-announce] RT Training in Boston - March 5 6, 2012

2011-12-01 Thread Thomas Sibley
March 2012 will bring a two-day RT training session to our hometown of
Boston!

To learn more and sign up online, visit
https://shop.bestpractical.com/#Training.

Drop us a line at train...@bestpractical.com with any questions you have
or to inquire about discounted pricing for academic institutions.


### What does training cover?

The first day starts off with a tour of RT's web interface and continues
with a detailed exploration and explanation of RT's functionality,
workflows and configurability. We'll touch on basic administration, but
concentrate largely on helping you and your team get the most out of
your RT instance.

The second day of training picks up with RT administration and dives
into what you need to safely customize and extend RT. We'll cover
point-and-click configuration, upgrading and installing RT, development
best practices, RT's API, building an extension, and database tuning.

It goes without saying that you'll get the most out of training if you
attend both days of the course, but we've designed the material so that
you can step out after the first day with a dramatically improved
understanding of how to use RT or show up on the second day and get
quickly up to speed on how to make RT do your bidding.

As far as I recall it uses all active statuses. Probably stalled kicks
in from approvals lifecycle. Investigate yourself a little bit. Ping
me once again if you can not find reason.



 In short we do not used Stalled, we have multiple other stalled status we

Great, thanks! I think that would solve our current problem. It seems that

(Owner = '__CurrentUser__' OR  Cc.id = '__CurrentUser__' OR
 AdminCc.id = '__CurrentUser__') AND (Status = 'new' OR Status = 'open')

worked when I modified the search filter in a custom dashboard. Unfortunately, 
it only worked once, then the old search filter was back in the custom 
dashboard. How can I make this modified search filter permanent? Or even 
better: how can I change every user's default dashboard so it works with the 
above search filter?

Many thanks in advance!
Warm regards,
 Stefan

[rt-users] Fwd: notify colleagues about a ticket in RT web interface (not by mail)

2011-12-01 Thread Stefan Vollmar
Dear Thomas,

I think I was able to solve it myself: I needed to be logged in as root. I 
could then save the modified query (from query builder), then select 
Configuration:Globals:RT-at-a-Glance and replace the default query with the one 
I had just saved - neat!

Warm regards,
 Stefan
