Hi Faisal

If there was some real problem, you should ask that to MySQL List Admin
<list@lists.mysql.com>, not the users list...

Please notice that users don't have an incentive (don't get paid, points or
anything) for answering here, so if your question is interesting to someone,
they might reply if they have time and the planets align, but there is no
guarantee, just as with most lists.

Most users are encouraged to read this old "hackers" page: *How To Ask Questions The Smart Way* http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html

If you haven't already read it, who knows, it might enlighten you...

For future ocassions, please create a new thread instead replying other with off
topic question.

Best Regards

Hi

Whenever I send an email on this list it always take 20-30 days to get any reply, is there any problem with my membership ?

Thanks

Hi Lukman,

Hello,

In our Eventum setup, we created several custom fields (date type, drop down, string).

When user create a new issue, we would like to populate those fields with a default value based on certain criteria. Example: user's region based on user's email-id, date = system's date, etc.

How can it be done? Please advice. Thank you for your help and attention.

You will need to use the custom field API for this. The current Eventum release does not support this but I just committed the change you need.

You will need to merge this change in:

http://svn.mysql.com/fisheye/changelog/eventum-gpl/?cs=3676

Then follow the instructions for the custom fields API here:
