Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Bugzilla :: Documentation, defect)

Description

Build Identifier: Tip documentation on 2010-03-02

This text appears in section 2.2.5 of the Bugzilla Guide:

"
This would also be a good time to revisit the localconfig file and make sure that the names of the priorities, severities, platforms and operating systems are those you wish to use when you start creating bugs. Remember to rerun checksetup.pl if you change it.
"

localconfig is no longer the place where these things should be configured.  Documentation should refer to the administrator interface editvalues.cgi

Reproducible: Always

The "Edit Parameters" link in the footer also no longer exists. I removed this too.
