Configuration
First, you need to log on into your Mantis installation with an administrator account and then browse the page http://www.example.com/mantis/plugins_page.php and choose the Weekly plugin link.
You must fill the following fields after selecting the project to configure the plugin:
- Enable: to enable/disable the plugin.
- Allow sending by HTML browsing: this variable is used to send the emails by browsing the http://www.example.com/mantis/plugins/reminder/reminder_send.php page.
- From host: this variable is used to restrict the right to send emails to an IP address or a reverse DNS value.
- Format: Choose the format of the email.
- Email Subject: The subject of the email send.
- Offset: The offset value is used to determine the end date (of the date filter). The end date is the current time - offset hours.
- Period: The period value is used to determine the start date (of the date filter). The start date is end date - period days.
- Unassigned/Resolved/Recently modified/Feedback/Verify: Order the 5 boxes (from 1 to 5) and specify if the date filter must be used. Use 0 to disable one or more boxes.
- Bug count: Specify the maximum number of bug that appears in the boxes.
- Exclude bugs: Specify the bugs id to exclude from the report.
- Send to: Select the users to send the report.

Usage
You have two solutions to send the weekly:
- Create a scheduled task (with cron on Unix by example) to execute the MANTIS_ROOT/plugins/weekly/bin/weekly.sh file (this file needs to be updated).
- Browse the http://www.example.com/mantis/plugins/weekly/weekly_send.php page.
