Development

Submitting a Bug

  1. Go to the bug tracker, http://dev.simplemachines.org/mantis/
  2. Click the "Login" link if it appears
  3. Click on Report Issue
  4. If you have not selected a project you will be prompted to select one
  5. Fill out the form, paying special attention to the “Summary” and “Description” The description should give as much details as possible. Include things such as how to reproduce the bug and if using an SVN version version it is. If there is a relevant forum topic (for example, if you are reporting the bug on behalf of a forum member) make sure to link the topic(s) concerning that bug.
  6. After submitting the bug make sure to review it and make any corrections.

Reviewing Bugs

  • Review unassigned bugs and assign them to yourself or to the appropriate person. In source Documentation, for example, would be assigned to the doc coordinator. While assignments are not mandatory, and not much used, it is recommended to assign an issue to yourself if you intend to fix it, so that others know you have taken charge of it.

Dealing with Feature Requests

Community members can use the "Feature Requests" board to post their suggestions and ideas for new standard features. These should be reviewed and any requests that seem good should be tracked for the developers to take into account.
