in TaskController.class.php add the following:
- line 31 after function index() { : $this->addHelper('textile');
- line 44 after function view_list() { : $this->addHelper('textile');

in views/task/task_list.php:
- line 33 replace clean with do_textile

Tickets support both comments and attachments, as well as subtasks.

We've been trying to track how we deal with issues/etc and give some more substantive feedback than the above, so for now I'll hold off.

Thanks,

rainhard:
I'm having a problem with permissions when using the "Task Commenting Hack":

I have 3 users assigned to one project. User1 assigns a task to User2, User2 adds a comment to this task. The problem is, that User3, who wants to have a look what is going on in this task, doesn't have the permission to access "task details". This is a problem because User3, who is also familiar with this project could add some valuable input, even if the task is not assigned to him.

How and what could I change in the configuration so that every user assigned to a specific project can access and comment all tasks in this project?


Hi,
i´m experiencing same problem as rainhard, client users are not able to add comments on tasks assigned to any of the members, getting a "You don't have permissions to access requested page" error message. For tasks assigned to "Anyone" comments are allowed instead.

Any update on this?

Thanks in advance,
--p

A 'task' can quickly balloon into many subtasks, and many of these can lead to involved, linked discussions. This is VERY hard to track in the current format.

In fact, as I am moving tasklists to tickets, it is quite frustrating that I cannot comment on the tasklists or embedded tasks, simply to say "moved to X location" instead of "completed."

As an admin, I should have control to set author of items (OK, I can hack the SQL ...)

More later.

In this case it's not so bad to be a little over-designed, since it makes it a little easier for myself and others to modify your code to suit our needs.

Good point with the language. I forgot that I only have to worry about English. If anyone needs other languages, or you just want to do it right, you should use this instead:

echo $task->countComments() . " " . ($task->countComments() == 1 ? lang('comment') : lang('comments'))

(comment(s) should already be in the language files)

A minor problem with this piece of code:

echo $task->countComments() . ($task->countComments() == 1 ? " comment" : " comments")

Is that it is not multi-lang friendly. If you are using English translation that it's not a problem :)
