Translations

Although django-helpdesk has originally been written for the English language, there are already multiple translations to Spanish, Polish, and German and more translations are welcomed.
Translations are handled using the excellent Transifex service which is much easier for most users than manually editing .po files. It also allows collaborative translation. If you want to help translate django-helpdesk into languages other than English, we encourage you to make use of our Transifex project:
http://www.transifex.net/projects/p/django-helpdesk/resource/core/
Once you have translated content via Transifex, please raise an issue on the project Github page to let us know it's ready to import.

Tests
-----
Currently, test coverage is very low. We're working on increasing this, and to make life easier we are using `Travis CI`_ for continuous integration. This means that the test suite is run every time a code change is made, so we can try and make sure we avoid basic bugs and other regressions.
Please include tests in the ``tests/`` folder when committing code changes.

Custom Fields
=============
As of February 2011, django-helpdesk supports custom fields on the ``Ticket`` model. These fields are created by using the Django administration tool, and are shown on both the public and staff submission forms.
django-helpdesk supports custom fields on the ``Ticket`` model. These fields are created by using the Django administration tool, and are shown on both the public and staff submission forms. You can use most Django field types including text, integer, boolean, and list.
You can use most Django field types including text, integer, boolean, and list.
The demo at http://django-helpdesk-demo.herokuapp.com contains an example of each type of custom field, including a mix of mandatory and optional fields.

Note that this feature is still in beta - it needs quite a bit of testing and no doubt has bugs!
Custom fields are relatively inefficient, and you cannot search by them. They can be useful for tracking extra information that your organisation needs but that isn't supported out of the box.
