Hi, Thanks for your answer. I am aware that custom field can be given a default value in trac.ini. I am looking for something smarter than that. The custom field is actually a build number. I don't want the user to enter the build number manually, because it is annoying and can cause lots of mistakes. I want the current build number to automatically appear in the custom field, whenever a user opens a new ticket. Can I update this field somehow externally? The build number is in a file on the system.
Is there a way of defining system global variable like $USER that will contain custom data. Then use this global variable to automatically set the value of the custom field or even use it in ticket system queries? In general, does Trac have some way of communicating with the "outside world", in order to get external information? Thanks, Guy. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of [email protected] Sent: Wednesday, January 21, 2009 5:00 PM To: Trac Users Subject: [Trac] Re: Fields default values On Jan 21, 2:23 am, "Guy Bashan" <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi all, > > Is it possible to automatically enter a default value to a custom field in > trac ticketing system? > > I have a custom field containing the current build of the ticket.
