===Bug Tracker===
Find, report and fix bugs here http://bugs.contribs.org/

You don't have to be a programmer to help or use the bug tracker.
Bugs also include fixing things and making suggestions on documentation, translations and the SME Server web sites.

General Instructions for using the bug Tracker are here [http://www.bugzilla.org/docs/tip/html/using.html Using Bugzilla]

====Searching for bugs====
To help find bugs, some prepared searches have been added in page headers, with more [[SME_Server:Documentation:HowTo:BugzillaReports | BugzillaReports]] here

1. Simple search <br />
At the top of the search page choose 'Find a specific bug' <br />
Select a Status and a Product category and enter your search term <br />

2. Advanced search <br />
At the top of the search page choose 'Advanced search'

You can restrict searches by using a selection or multiple selections of a category <br />
Use Control Click to select/deselect from selection sets, if none are selected all are.

typically you may restrict Product to use '7.x/Future/Documentation' <br />
and enter a search term into either 'Summary' or 'A Comment'

eg. Status = CLOSED, Resolution = WONTFIX, Summary = yum <br />
will return about 7 bugs

eg. Status = CLOSED, Resolution = WONTFIX, A Comment = yum <br />
will return about 17 bugs

*Modifying your search

- Click on the hyperlinked headers to sort your list

- Click 'Edit Search' near the page footer
* you can adjust your selection sets
* add a search tern in the summary or comments fields
* restrict the dates, eg between 365d and Now the last year, 60d and 7d from 2months ago but not the last week
* bugs you are working on or watching, add you email address to the left field in email and numbering and check cc:, commenter, etc

- If you have a favourite search,
