Extension talk:IssueTracker

I've followed the installation instructions and when I add to a page I get a very long string that starts with: "@ENCODED@PHN0eWxlIHR5cGU9InRleHQvY3NzIj4NCmRpdiNpc3N1ZUZpb"

This is with MediaWiki 1.11.0 and PHP 5.2.5
 * This issue should be fixed with r63, another problem occurs if you use a version containing only one '.' like 1.13alpha. The author didn't fix that yet, but I sent him a proposal. --Osai 13:14, 11 March 2008 (UTC)


 * 11 March 2008: Encoding Issue

Hi, yes, I'm aware of this (thanks Osai) and I'm trying to implement a solution for the latest versions of MediaWiki. To fix this manually, you can update the IssueTrackerAction.php file.

File: IssueTracker/Actions/IssueTrackerAction.php Line: 269

Change: return $this->_processOutputEncoding($output); To: return $output;

I've added the ParserAfterTidy hook to fix the encoding issue in MediaWiki > 1.11.2. The ParserAfterTidy hook is available from version 1.5.0.
 * 11 March 2008: Encoding Issue Resolved
 * Nice job. And it is working very well, here is a live demo, I'll probably have a closer look at the styling, maybe you could add a super class 'IssueTracker' to apply custom styles using CSS. Best Regards, Osai 23:37, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

Feature Request
Great extension, I love it! Keep up the good work on it!

I would like to make a request/suggestion for a "Comments" capability on each issue. I would try to modify it myself to manage that but I'm not quite proficient enough with the code. Could this be done?

Wiki markup
I think that the Summary filed should allow wiki formatting. --DCLXVI 19:26, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

Some thing about "archived

 * It's seem to having some situations.
 * Once a issues be archived, it's can't be search.
 * How to change a archived issues to other status.

Add Mail function
It will be better if this extension can send email to a user when a issues assigned to him or something changed in the issues like Todo Tasks.:-) --Roc michael 17:10, 15 April 2008 (UTC)

Add Priority
The one item missing from making this a very useful tool is the ability to set a priority. The default would be blank, but then the list should be at the very least 1 through 10. If I can I'll try to make the modifications myself to see if I can make it work and submit it for review. --cvtrig 02:24, 19 April 2008 (PST)

MySQL syntax error
I get the following error when using the CREATE TABLE command you supplied:-

CREATE TABLE `issue_tracker` (   -> `issue_id` INT(10) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,    -> `type` VARCHAR(5) NOT NULL DEFAULT 't_bug',    -> `title` VARCHAR(100) NOT NULL,    -> `summary` TEXT NOT NULL,    -> `status` VARCHAR(5) NOT NULL DEFAULT 's_new',    -> `assignee` VARCHAR(40) NOT NULL,    -> `user_name` VARCHAR(40) NOT NULL,    -> `user_id` INT(10) NOT NULL,    -> `project_name` VARCHAR(100) NOT NULL,    -> `deleted` INT(1) NOT NULL DEFAULT '0',    -> `history` TEXT NOT NULL,    -> `priority_date` DATETIME NOT NULL DEFAULT '0000-00-00 00:00:00',    -> `date_created` TIMESTAMP NOT NULL DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,    -> PRIMARY KEY  (`issue_id`),    -> KEY `user_id` (`user_id`)    -> ); ERROR 1064: You have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'CURRENT_TIMESTAMP, PRIMARY KEY (`issue_id`),

I am using the following:-

MediaWiki: 1.9.3 PHP: 5.0.4 (apache2handler) MySQL: 4.0.21

Any suggestions in how I can get around this problem? Your extension looks great and I would like to get it implemented on my site.
