Settings
========
First, django-helpdesk needs ``django.core.context_processors.request`` activated, so in your ``settings.py`` add::
from django.conf import global_settings
TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS = (
global_settings.TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS +
('django.core.context_processors.request',)
)
The following settings can be changed in your ``settings.py`` file to help change the way django-helpdesk operates. There are quite a few settings available to toggle functionality within django-helpdesk.
HELPDESK_DEFAULT_SETTINGS
-------------------------
django-helpdesk has a built in ``UserSettings`` entity with per-user options that they will want to configure themselves. When you create a new user, a set of options is automatically created for them which they can then change themselves.
If you want to override the default settings for your users, create ``HELPDESK_DEFAULT_SETTINGS`` as a dictionary in ``settings.py``. The default is below::
HELPDESK_DEFAULT_SETTINGS = {
'use_email_as_submitter': True,
'email_on_ticket_assign': True,
'email_on_ticket_change': True,
'login_view_ticketlist': True,
'email_on_ticket_apichange': True,
'tickets_per_page': 25
}
