Description

It would be very nice for custom menu items to be able to variables, such as the current user, the current wiki topic, ticket number, etc.

Please consider adding this, or documenting examples of how to do it.

I'm not sure I understand what you request. Can you please describe a more detailed description of your idea?

I want to create custom menu items with titles or URLs that are not completely static, but depend on other information in trac, such as the current user, current topic, current ticket number, etc. This would add considerable power & flexibility.

For example, we could create custom menu items to:

  • custom query showing tickets for the current user

mytickets.title = Tickets for $USER mytickets.url = .../query?owner=$USER

  • actions for the current wiki page:

pageattach.title = Attach pageattach.urk = .../wiki/$PAGE?action=attach pagedelete.title = Delete pagedelete.urk = .../wiki/$PAGE?action=delete pageedit.title = Edit pageedit.url = .../wiki/$PAGE?action=edit

samecomp.title = Same Component samecomp.url = .../query?component=$COMPONENT samemile.title = Same Milestone samemile.url = .../query?milestone=$MILESTONE
