Description Bill Mills 2014-05-20 14:10:14 UTC

I assume this is user error but I can't get "My Requests" to show me any bugs.
I have submitted several bugs and also assigned a couple to myself.
However the default view of My Requests shows no bugs and playing around with the fields does not do any better.

(I had wondered if it was searching for bugs that were submited by me AND assigned to me, instead of OR.  I blanked out the assigned and still nothing.
At any rate there are 2 bugs that meet the AND condition anyway.)

Comment 1 Bill Mills 2014-05-20 14:17:02 UTC

BTW: If I go to advanced search and enter my e-mail to the "Search by People" drop down for the multi-role column, I see all the bugs I expect to see in "My Requests"

Comment 2 Paul Eggleton 2014-05-21 09:15:22 UTC

I think this is expected - rather than bugs assigned to or created by you, "My Requests" is meant to work with the Bugzilla request system:

http://www.bugzilla.org/features/#rs

I don't think we really make use of this feature in our Bugzilla, although we do have several stages of review requiring the attention of other people than the original assignee, so I wonder if we should look into the possibility of using it.

Comment 3 Bill Mills 2014-05-21 15:22:31 UTC

Yes, I see.

I have used bug systems that had a one click link in the header for "all bugs related to me".  I thought that was bugzilla but maybe not.
It could also have been local customization.

This bug can be closed as invalid unless you want to pursue such a customization.

Thanks,

It's been a while since I had a new account, but at least when I originally signed up I got a "My Bugs" saved search created by default (if it's there it should appear directly under "Product Dashboard" at the _bottom_ of the page); this should do exactly what you're describing.

Comment 5 Paul Eggleton 2014-05-22 14:46:05 UTC

(Marking as invalid as discussed - we're generally happy to talk about enhancements to the bugzilla though.)
