Settings
========
First, django-helpdesk needs ``django.core.context_processors.request`` activated, so you must add it to the ``settings.py``. Add the following::
TEMPLATES = [
{
'BACKEND': 'django.template.backends.django.DjangoTemplates',
...
'OPTIONS': {
...
'context_processors': (
# Default ones first
...
# The one django-helpdesk requires:
"django.template.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,
'tickets_per_page': 25
}
Generic Options
---------------
These changes are visible throughout django-helpdesk
- **HELPDESK_REDIRECT_TO_LOGIN_BY_DEFAULT** When a user visits "/", should we redirect to the login page instead of the default homepage?
**Default:** ``HELPDESK_REDIRECT_TO_LOGIN_BY_DEFAULT = False``
- **HELPDESK_KB_ENABLED** show knowledgebase links?
**Default:** ``HELPDESK_KB_ENABLED = True``
- **HELPDESK_NAVIGATION_ENABLED** Show extended navigation by default, to all users, irrespective of staff status?
**Default:** ``HELPDESK_NAVIGATION_ENABLED = False``
- **HELPDESK_TRANSLATE_TICKET_COMMENTS** Show dropdown list of languages that ticket comments can be translated into via Google Translate?
**Default:** ``HELPDESK_TRANSLATE_TICKET_COMMENTS = False``
- **HELPDESK_TRANSLATE_TICKET_COMMENTS_LANG** List of languages to offer. If set to false, all default google translate languages will be shown.
**Default:** ``HELPDESK_TRANSLATE_TICKET_COMMENTS_LANG = ["en", "de", "fr", "it", "ru"]``
- **HELPDESK_SHOW_CHANGE_PASSWORD** Show link to 'change password' on 'User Settings' page?
**Default:** ``HELPDESK_SHOW_CHANGE_PASSWORD = False``
- **HELPDESK_FOLLOWUP_MOD** Allow user to override default layout for 'followups' (work in progress)
**Default:** ``HELPDESK_FOLLOWUP_MOD = False``
- **HELPDESK_AUTO_SUBSCRIBE_ON_TICKET_RESPONSE** Auto-subscribe user to ticket as a 'CC' if (s)he responds to a ticket?
**Default:** ``HELPDESK_AUTO_SUBSCRIBE_ON_TICKET_RESPONSE = False``
- **HELPDESK_EMAIL_SUBJECT_TEMPLATE** Subject template for templated emails. ``%(subject)s`` represents the subject wording from the email template (e.g. "(Closed)"). *Warning*: your subject template should always include a ``{{ ticket.ticket }}`` somewhere as many ``django-helpdesk`` features rely on the ticket ID in the subject line in order to correctly route mail to the corresponding ticket. If you leave out the ticket ID, your helpdesk may not work correctly!
**Default:** ``HELPDESK_EMAIL_SUBJECT_TEMPLATE = "{{ ticket.ticket }} {{ ticket.title|safe }} %(subject)s"``
- **HELPDESK_EMAIL_FALLBACK_LOCALE** Fallback locale for templated emails when queue locale not found
**Default:** ``HELPDESK_EMAIL_FALLBACK_LOCALE = "en"``
- **QUEUE_EMAIL_BOX_UPDATE_ONLY** Only process mail with a valid tracking ID; all other mail will be ignored instead of creating a new ticket.
**Default:** ``QUEUE_EMAIL_BOX_UPDATE_ONLY = False``
- **HELPDESK_ANON_ACCESS_RAISES_404** If True, redirects user to a 404 page when attempting to reach ticket pages while not logged in, rather than redirecting to a login screen.
**Default:** ``HELPDESK_ANON_ACCESS_RAISES_404 = False``
Options shown on public pages
-----------------------------
These options only change display of items on public-facing pages, not staff pages.
- **HELPDESK_VIEW_A_TICKET_PUBLIC** Show 'View a Ticket' section on public page?
**Default:** ``HELPDESK_VIEW_A_TICKET_PUBLIC = True``
- **HELPDESK_SUBMIT_A_TICKET_PUBLIC** Show 'submit a ticket' section & form on public page?
**Default:** ``HELPDESK_SUBMIT_A_TICKET_PUBLIC = True``
Options for public ticket submission form
-----------------------------------------
- **HELPDESK_PUBLIC_TICKET_QUEUE** Sets the queue for tickets submitted through the public form. If defined, the matching form field will be hidden. This cannot be `None` but must be set to a valid queue slug.
**Default:** Not defined
- **HELPDESK_PUBLIC_TICKET_PRIORITY** Sets the priority for tickets submitted through the public form. If defined, the matching form field will be hidden. Must be set to a valid integer priority.
**Default:** Not defined
- **HELPDESK_PUBLIC_TICKET_DUE_DATE** Sets the due date for tickets submitted through the public form. If defined, the matching form field will be hidden. Set to `None` if you want to hide the form field but do not want to define a value.
**Default:** Not defined
Options that change ticket updates
----------------------------------
- **HELPDESK_ALLOW_NON_STAFF_TICKET_UPDATE** Allow non-staff users to interact with tickets? This will also change how 'staff_member_required'
in staff.py will be defined.
**Default:** ``HELPDESK_ALLOW_NON_STAFF_TICKET_UPDATE = False``
- **HELPDESK_SHOW_EDIT_BUTTON_FOLLOW_UP** Show edit buttons in ticket follow ups?
**Default:** ``HELPDESK_SHOW_EDIT_BUTTON_FOLLOW_UP = True``
- **HELPDESK_SHOW_DELETE_BUTTON_SUPERUSER_FOLLOW_UP** Show delete buttons in ticket follow ups if user is 'superuser'?
**Default:** ``HELPDESK_SHOW_DELETE_BUTTON_SUPERUSER_FOLLOW_UP = False``
- **HELPDESK_UPDATE_PUBLIC_DEFAULT** Make all updates public by default? This will hide the 'is this update public' checkbox.
**Default:** ``HELPDESK_UPDATE_PUBLIC_DEFAULT = False``
- **HELPDESK_STAFF_ONLY_TICKET_OWNERS** Only show staff users in ticket owner drop-downs?
**Default:** ``HELPDESK_STAFF_ONLY_TICKET_OWNERS = False``
- **HELPDESK_STAFF_ONLY_TICKET_CC** Only show staff users in ticket cc drop-down?
**Default:** ``HELPDESK_STAFF_ONLY_TICKET_CC = False``
Staff Ticket Creation Settings
------------------------------
- **HELPDESK_CREATE_TICKET_HIDE_ASSIGNED_TO** Hide the 'assigned to' / 'Case owner' field from the 'create_ticket' view? It'll still show on the ticket detail/edit form.
**Default:** ``HELPDESK_CREATE_TICKET_HIDE_ASSIGNED_TO = False``
Staff Ticket View Settings
------------------------------
- **HELPDESK_ENABLE_PER_QUEUE_PERMISSION** If ``True``, logged in staff users only see queues and tickets to which they have specifically been granted access - this holds for the dashboard, ticket query, and ticket report views. User assignment is done through the standard ``django.admin.admin`` permissions. *Note*: Staff with access to admin interface will be able to see the full list of tickets, but won't have access to details and could not modify them. This setting does not prevent staff users from creating tickets for all queues. Also, superuser accounts have full access to all queues, regardless of whatever queue memberships they have been granted.
**Default:** ``HELPDESK_ENABLE_PER_QUEUE_PERMISSION = False``
Default E-Mail Settings
-----------------------
The following settings default to ``None`` but can be set as defaults, rather than setting them per-queue.
- ``QUEUE_EMAIL_BOX_TYPE``
- ``QUEUE_EMAIL_BOX_SSL``
- ``QUEUE_EMAIL_BOX_HOST````
- ``QUEUE_EMAIL_BOX_USER``
- ``QUEUE_EMAIL_BOX_PASSWORD``
