Auto-complete for users, issue IDs, and pages

Auto-complete for users, issue IDs, and pages - Classic UI article

Auto-complete is enabled in MantisHub to help you automatically fill in usernames, issue IDs, and page names within your issues or pages.

Auto-complete is supported within a MantisHub issue for:

  • Usernames within the "Users following this issue" section. Auto-Complete Username Followers

  • Usernames when using @ user mentions in issue notes, description, or summary. Auto-Complete Username Mention

  • Issue IDs when using the # key reference in issue notes, description, or summary Auto-Complete Issue #

  • Issue IDs within the "Relationships" section Auto-Complete Issue Relationships

  • Page names within an issue description or note.

    • Referencing a page in the same project requires double square brackets [[Page Name]]. Auto-Complete Issue Page Name 1
    • Referencing a page in a different project requires double square brackets, forward slash, project name, forward slash, page name [[/Project Name/Page Name]]. Auto-Complete Issue Page Name 2
  • Page names within another page.

    • Referencing a page in the same project requires double square brackets [[Page Name]]. Auto-Complete Pages
    • Referencing a page in a different project requires double square brackets, forward slash, project name, forward slash, page name [[/Project Name/Page Name]]. Auto-Complete Pages 2

Note that auto-complete does not provide a full list of all users, issues, or pages since these lists would be quite long and make auto-complete unusable. MantisHub auto-complete contains intelligence to provide relevant suggestions. It will display:

  • Users involved with an issue (e.g. reporter, handler, those who have added notes, monitoring users etc)
  • Users with access level developer and above for the project to which the issue belongs.
  • Issue IDs that have been recently viewed.
  • Issue IDs related to that issue.
  • Pages within the selected project.
  • Pages with search results in the name or title.

MantisHub might just be the ticket tracking tool you have been waiting for. It's lovingly handcrafted in Seattle
