Hi, I'm having some trouble getting help text to display properly (the ? to the right of each field).
I keep getting: ERROR: Failed to load help file: Not Found

I'm attempting to set it like this:

         f.entry :title => 'Title',
                 :field => :field_name,
                 :help => 'field_name.html'

I've tried all kind of combinations for the URL path with no luck.

Would appreciate some help with this. Thanks!

I've forwarded this to the jenkinsci-dev group.

Hi, Matthew

I think that things you want to do is not implemented yet :(
So, for now, maybe you can use description instead like as follows:

f.entry :titile => 'Title',
:field => :field_name,
:description => 'some help text'

Regards

Thanks for your reply. Yes I'm currently using the description field for some basic help text.
Can I ask how you were able to determine that it's not implemented yet?
