Password Needed to Activate A Ticket in osTicket v1.6 RC5

October 20th, 2009 Masino Sinaga 10 comments

The aim of the title of this article is to provide the additional prerequisite that is password when client obviously wanted to open a new ticket in osTicket System v1.6 RC5. I made this modification by adding a new field named password in ost_ticket table. After client open a new ticket, then osTicket will generate the new password and display a message that inform client about the password that has just been sent to the client’s email. The ticket will be set to ‘delay’ status at this moment, instead of set to ‘open’ status. This password then will be automatically being sent by osTicket to the client’s email including the URL contains of that password. Afterwards, client has to click on that URL link in order to activate the ticket (in this case, osTicket will change the ticket status from ‘delay’ become ‘open’). Therefore, staff will be able to see that ticket on the ticket list via staff-panel. Read more…

September 27th, 2009 Masino Sinaga No comments

As Administrator in your osTicket System, you want to limit tickets sent by the same user/email within the last period of days, somehow. For example, you want to limit only 3 tickets a user (determined from the email address) can submit within the last one month. When this condition meet the criteria, osTicket System will display the message such as: “You are not allowed to send the ticket because you have already sent 3 tickets within the last 30 days!”, afterwards, the system will reject the ticket that user submitting immediately. So here is the solution that I made. Read more…
