Hi,

Simple pick lists can be set up without using backends. Go to Administration->Manage Custom Fields. The key fields to set are Field Type and by you description you want either Combo Box or Multiple Field types. Add the values you want in the Field Options and don't select Custom Field Backend. You can use rank to order the custom fields on the report page. Set up a sandbox project and play with it.

HTH,

Barry

Hello List,

I have data that I need to provide to users as a list (<select> element) during issue creation. I suspect that Custom Fields will do the trick, but I cannot find docs on how to use them.

I have been looking at: include/custom_field/class.dynamic.php

...but the docs seem sparse/hard to find/confusing.

Can anyone send some pointers to some examples?
