NAME

RT::BugTracker::Public - Adds a public, (hopefully) userfriendly bug tracking UI to RT

INSTALLATION

perl Makefile.PL
make
make install

May need root permissions

Edit your /opt/rt4/etc/RT_SiteConfig.pm

Add this line:

    Set(@Plugins, qw(RT::BugTracker::Public));

or add RT::BugTracker::Public to your existing @Plugins line.

Clear your mason cache
    rm -rf /opt/rt4/var/mason_data/obj
Restart your webserver

CONFIGURATION

You can find local/etc/BugTracker-Public/RT_SiteConfig.pm with example of configuration and sane defaults. Add require in the main RT_SiteConfig.pm or define options there.

WebPublicUser

Make sure to create the public user in your RT system and add the line below to your RT_SiteConfig.pm.

    Set( $WebPublicUser, 'guest' );

If you didn't name your public user 'guest', then change accordingly.

The public user should probably be unprivileged and have the following rights

    CreateTicket
    ModifyCustomField
    ReplyToTicket
    SeeCustomField
    SeeQueue
    ShowTicket

If you want the public UI to do anything useful. It should NOT have the ModifySelf right.
