Status: NEW

Description

[Andreas Franke (gone)]

Per kiko's request, I'm filing this bug for the frontend part of bug 12284.

Comment 1

[Andreas Franke (gone)]

Now that colchange.cgi has been templatized, attachment 52227 [details] in bug 12284 is
obsolete. 

Instead, here is the templatized version of that attachment: 

1. Insert the following line in colchange.cgi before processing the template:

$vars->{collist_string}= value_quote(join(" ", @collist));

2. Patch template/default/buglist/colchange.tmpl with the following patch.

Attachment: patch to colchange.tmpl

Oops, wrong attachment number. It's attachment 53227 [details] [diff] [review] that is obsoleted by this
one.

Comment 3

[Matthew Tuck [:CodeMachine]]

This should also be saveable with stored queries.

Comment 4

[Jeff Hedlund]

I agree on this, I'd like to see the column list removed from cookies.

Using different computers/browsers makes for inconsistent columns, and there are
definite advantages for having different queries show different columns.

Comment 5

[Ray Trent]

I agree with this request too. 

For my purposes, an even better (and perhaps easier to implement?) feature would
be: "show any column I specified in my query in addition to the normal ones".
Probably needs a checkbox to enable this, since it won't always be what you want.

But saving columns per stored query would be fine too. 

This is especially true with custom fields.

This is bitrotted

Comment 7

[Dave Miller [:justdave]]

Bugzilla 2.20 feature set is now frozen as of 15 Sept 2004.  Anything flagged
enhancement that hasn't already landed is being pushed out.  If this bug is
otherwise ready to land, we'll handle it on a case-by-case basis, please set the
blocking2.20 flag to '?' if you think it qualifies.

Comment 9

[Frédéric Buclin]

OK, reopening. Bug 12284 comment 24 explicitly asks the column list to be available on query.cgi, i.e. at the same time you choose your search criteria. Bug 345826 only works with already saved searches.
