Edit report at http://pear.php.net/bugs/bug.php?id=1952&edit=1 ID: 1952 Updated by: danielc@analysisandsolutions.com Reported By: klaus at capitalfocus dot org -Status: Wont fix +Status: Analyzed Type: Feature/Change Request Package: Bug System PHP Version: Irrelevant Assigned To: danielc New Comment: There was some crude attempt at something like that in the system before. But, it didn't work. The information in the cookies and database conflicted. It also caused problems when submitting a bug when not logged in but then trying to edit it when logged in. So I removed it. I think the efforts of adding this feature and having to perform the various pieces of logic each time the bug is edited outweigh the benefits. But, that's my opinion. I'll mark the status as "Analyzed" and unassign it. Perhaps someone else will want to pick it up in the future.

That means, uses the email from your account just like when you edit it, and if you want to change it, it checks either if you are logged in (and your username submitted the bug) or if you are not logged in, asks you for the password (as before). Basically this means giving PEAR developers a fast track to bug submission. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-07-22 10:38:05] danielc at analysisandsolutions dot com While prefilling the email address is doable, it doesn't seem like a big deal to write it in. Preentering the password can't be done since all we have on record is the md5 hash. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-07-22 10:16:16] klaus at capitalfocus dot org Description: ------------ When reporting a new bug, I would like to have the data from my PEAR account automatically used. That is, if I am logged in, it should not ask for my email or a password. After all, I _am_ logged in and that should be sufficient. The bug system should take the necessary details from my user account. Currently, for new bug reports, both email and password are required to be entered for all people reporting a bug. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://pear.php.net/bugs/bug.php?id=1952&edit=1
