Question

Is there any way to create a filtered view of the FNN "Work in Progress" table?

I have many users that aren't generally working on anything in FogBugz, and a set of core developers that are almost always working on cases. I'd like to be able to manually specify either a user group or an explicit list of users to show in the FNN "Work in Progress" table. All other users would not be shown.

I suspect this could be achieved with a BugMonkey script, but my initial attempts have not been fruitful.

Answer 1

This jQuery removes me from the table:

setTimeout(function() {
  $('#staticworkingonData_sortable tr td:first-child')
  .each(function() {
    if ($.trim($(this).text()) == 'Michel de Ruiter')
      $(this).parent().remove();
  });
}, 2000);

You can adapt this to your needs.

Answer 2

With thanks to Michel de Ruiter, here's the full script that I ended up with (with names changed). If anyone has any improvements to offer, please feel free.

if( window.location.href.indexOf("screen=WORKINGON") > 0 )
{
// Start a recurring function that runs every 100 ms and will check your table for content
var TableFormatterInterval = setInterval(FormatTable, 100);
}

// this function will run every time the interval above fires
function FormatTable()
{
  var table = $('#staticworkingonData_sortable');
  if (table.find('tr').length !== 0) // if the table exists and contains rows...
  {
    clearInterval(TableFormatterInterval);
    var non_devs = ['user 1', 'user 2', 'etc']
    $('#staticworkingonData_sortable tr td:first-child')
    .each(function()
    {
      if (non_devs.indexOf($.trim($(this).text()))!=-1)
        $(this).parent().remove();
    });
  }
}

I've added the requested feature to the plugin in version 1.3.1.

Enjoy!
