Description of problem: When I'm filing new bug, the "Flags" section is not shown. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.18 How reproducible: Deterministic. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Hit "New", select for example "Red Hat Network Satellite". 2. Fill your bug report. 3. Look for a place to set your flags. Actual results: There is none. Expected results: It should be possible to set flags while filing the bug. Additional info: Observe that the "Blocks" field is available (that's what we've used for tracking bugs before flags). Not being able to enter flags while filing the bug causes at least three problems: - It takes more time for the reporter to wait for the bug to get filed and then scroll down and change the flags. - It generates extra emails from bugzilla. - Because reporters do not see the way to set the flags, they do not set them and the bugs get lost off everyone's radar. Maybe this is configurable on product's level?
Unfortunately flags are filtered by product and component normally, although some flags can be set to __Any__ component which would be doable for the enter_bug.cgi page. That would leave out any that are specific to component though. Another idea is we could also have a second screen that shows the flags for the product/component combination that was chosen that could be set at that time.
This feature will be available in the next release of Red Hat Bugzilla. Hopefully in the next 3-4 months.
Confirming, the flags are there in the bugzilla version 3.2, now deployed.
