| > Quips are small text messages that can be configured to appear |
| next to search results. A Bugzilla installation can have its own specific |
| quips. Whenever a quip needs to be displayed, a random selection |
| is made from the pool of already existing quips. |
| </P |
| ><P |
| > Quips are controlled by the <EM |
| >enablequips</EM |
| > parameter. |
| It has several possible values: on, approved, frozen or off. |
| In order to enable quips approval you need to set this parameter |
| to "approved". In this way, users are free to submit quips for |
| addition but an administrator must explicitly approve them before |
| they are actually used. |
| </P |
| ><P |
| > In order to see the user interface for the quips, it is enough to click |
| on a quip when it is displayed together with the search results. Or |
| it can be seen directly in the browser by visiting the quips.cgi URL |
| (prefixed with the usual web location of the Bugzilla installation). |
| Once the quip interface is displayed, it is enough to click the |
| "view and edit the whole quip list" in order to see the administration |
| page. A page with all the quips available in the database will |
| be displayed. |
| </P |
| ><P |
| > Next to each tip there is a checkbox, under the |
| "Approved" column. Quips who have this checkbox checked are |
| already approved and will appear next to the search results. |
| The ones that have it unchecked are still preserved in the |
| database but they will not appear on search results pages. |
| User submitted quips have initially the checkbox unchecked. |
| </P |
| ><P |
| > Also, there is a delete link next to each quip, |
| which can be used in order to permanently delete a quip. |
