If your project has guidelines to ensure a certain format or type of bug report, you can ask Launchpad to display them to people that report bugs against your project.

Specifying your bug reporting guidelines

Step 1: If you are a project owner, visit your project’s overview page and click Change details in the Actions menu.

Step 2: Paste a description of what your project considers to be a good bug report into the Bug reporting guidelines text-box. This can include URL links to further information.

Step 3: Save the changes.

Launchpad will now show bug reporters your guidelines at various points during the bug reporting process, including at the start.
