In ticket e-mail notifications order of custom fields is not used

[Mitar]

In ticket e-mail notifications order of custom fields is not used. Custom fields can be ordered by order setting. But in table in e-mail notification this is not used. It seems.

I have such configuration:

[ticket-custom]
blockedby = text
blockedby.label = Blocked by
blockedby.order = 6
blocking = text
blocking.label = Blocking
blocking.order = 5
deployment = select
deployment.label = Deployment state
deployment.options = |idea, wish|offer|initial contact|coordination|realization
deployment.order = 1
deployment.value = 
effort = select
effort.label = Effort
effort.options = highest|high|normal|low|lowest
effort.order = 7
effort.value = normal
nodes = text
nodes.label = Related nodes
nodes.order = 3
privacy = checkbox
privacy.label = Privacy sensitive
privacy.order = 2
privacy.value = 0
sensitive = checkbox
sensitive.label = Security sensitive
sensitive.order = 4
sensitive.value = 0

But table in notification looks like this:

-------------------------------------------------+-------------------------
          Reporter:  XXXXX                       |             Owner:
            Status:  closed                      |  Musti
         Component:  XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX  |          Priority:
          Keywords:                              |  normal
 Privacy sensitive:  0                           |        Resolution:
Security sensitive:  0                           |  fixed
        Blocked by:                              |  Deployment state:
                                                 |     Related nodes:
                                                 |  XXXXXXXXXX
                                                 |          Blocking:
                                                 |            Effort:
                                                 |  normal
-------------------------------------------------+-------------------------

When on site the order is: priority, component, keywords, cc, deployment state, privacy sensitive, related nodes, security sensitive, blocking, blocked by, effort, owner. Especially component is on the right, here is on the left.

When I try to reproduce the issue, the order setting is used.

I have such configuration: … But table in notification looks like this: …

If I'm not mistaken, then here also the custom fields follow the order given in the configuration.

(Assuming this order:

1. 2.
3. 4.
5. 6.
...

and that fields may be pushed down by word wrapping.)

When on site the order is: priority, component, keywords, cc, deployment state, privacy sensitive, related nodes, security sensitive, blocking, blocked by, effort,

… and is identical to the one given here.

owner. Especially component is on the right, here is on the left.

Not sure why owner is last here. But owner and component are not a custom field, so the [ticket-custom] order presumably has nothing to do with it.

Left vs. right depends on odd/even number of non-custom fields. On the web various fields (status, resolution, type) are not part of the table.

Maybe I'm missing something?

Still, layout should be the same, no? It is really not intuitive if things are different on the web and in the e-mail.

Replying to psuter:

Right. The issue depends wrapping ticket properties, not order settings of custom fields.

In [64f56357/jomae.git], improved the formatting with the wrapped properties.

I think that the issue is defect and we should fix it. In [ce33549b/jomae.git], added the regression test for this issue. After the changes, the property table in ticket notification email will be the following.

-------------------------------------------------+-------------------------
          Reporter:  anonymous                   |             Owner:
                                                 |  somebody
              Type:  defect                      |            Status:
                                                 |  closed
          Priority:  normal                      |         Milestone:
                                                 |  iter_01
         Component:  XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX  |        Resolution:
                                                 |  fixed
          Keywords:                              |  Deployment state:
 Privacy sensitive:  0                           |     Related nodes:
                                                 |  XXXXXXXXXX
Security sensitive:  0                           |          Blocking:
        Blocked by:                              |            Effort:
                                                 |  normal

I'll push the changes to 0.12-stable.
