Summary0002846: MantisBT Proposal: Default template for bug reports
DescriptionBelow is the text that I'm proposing would be available in every bug report page (http://freecadweb.org/tracker/bug_report_page.php). See attached screenshot of proposal. What I'm hoping is possible is that the default text could be placeholder text that will disappear once the user starts typing in the text field to enter their information. Here is an example of how to add placeholder text to a
<textarea>
(http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4168902/html-textarea-placeholder#10199101)
---------------------------------
Explain the details of the bug/feature/patch. Make sure to explain what you were doing when it happened. What you expected to happen. And what actually was the result.
Steps To ReproducePlease produce a step-by-step list (as detailed as possible) to help the devs and testers to reproduce your issue.
Ex.
1. Launch FreeCAD
2. Open Sketcher through the dropdown
3. Open a New Document: File > New
4. etc...
Result: Summarize the result you are seeing happening in FreeCAD
Additional InformationPlease paste the contents of Help > About Freecad > "Copy to clipboard"

If you are running a 'debug release' you can also publish a debugging backtrace. Please see: http://www.freecadweb.org/wiki/Debugging

If you have a file to share that is larger then what the FreeCAD bugtracker allows, you can upload the file to a cloud-based 3rd party service (like owncloud, dropbox etc...) and paste the link here.

The problem is that this requires to modify the mantis source code... Which I'm not very keen to do because then everytime we upgrade, I have to make the changes again. But let's see how it goes with mantis2 first, maybe there are better customization options...

Understood. If that's the case, I'll open a ticket on MantisBT and see what they say.

You're becoming the tracker master :)
This was a good occasion to have a look at the new mantis... Much better! I liked the "timeline" that is now on the "my view" page...

LOL.
Cool, yea I like the timeline as well! It shows tracker activity which is something I think is important for a tracker to have. It's taking MantisBT ages to get to where they are now. I think it's quite a departure from the low-tech 1.3.x UI and it feels ... well it's growing on me... nevertheless, I think they're going in the right direction. Especially with the file drag and drop interface and easier to view bug attachment files.

Apparently the upstream ticket is a dupe of http://mantisbt.org/bugs/view.php?id=14695
Edit: Upstream ticket re-opened since it wasn't a dupe but only related.

@yorik mantisbt dev responded:
The way to achieve this is to have configuration opens that can be set in config_inc.php or the database (per project) that end up in the HTML place holder text, which provides the desired behavior automatically. Contributions via Github Pull Requests are welcome.

Hopefully, this post for assistance on the forum[1] will call in the cavalry?!

Looks awesome except that latest FF does not see the newlines within the multi-line javascript (even though it should https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Template_literals)
I'll file an upstream ticket with Mozilla.
Thanks again kkremitzki!
