Redmine

Hi,

I'm working on this problem since few days.

I found out that the field which decide to send the mail or not is always fill by 0.

The field i'm talking is in "members" table and the field is 'mail_notification'.

So, i solved the problem by updating this field by 1 for all rows.

But, i'll be pleased to know how to manage this field in admin area :) !

Bye,

Hi again,

Just to say that these updates might not be very good ...

In fact, now, for all issues modifications, every users of the project receive a mail, not only the one who is of charge of the issue ...

Bye,

Ok. I found out that this option can be congured in each account configuration "Mon compte" - "Notification par email".
So, every one can do what he wants.

A slight extension of this matter:

Is there a way to "_override_" the user email setting for certain notifications - particularly for News? I find that the "Only for things I watch or I'm involved in" doesn't consider the user as involved in project News, which is not the perspective of managers. <j>

Yes ... i have the same problem ...
News have to be sent even if the user has changed preferences from his personnal panel !
How to change this ! Because it doesn't work, my users don't use it now !

I'm newbe in Ruby but there is a solution:

Redmine version - 0.9.5
/apps/models/mailer.rb line 143

  def news_added(news)
    redmine_headers 'Project' => news.project.identifier
    message_id news
    recipients news.recipients
    subject "[#{news.project.name}] #{l(:label_news)}: #{news.title}" 
    body :news => news,
         :news_url => url_for(:controller => 'news', :action => 'show', :id => news)
    render_multipart('news_added', body)
  end

replace line
recipients news.recipients
to
recipients news.project.members.collect {|m| m.user}.collect {|u| u.mail}
and mail will send to all members of project

Looks like this is being tracked as an issue here: #2549.

There's a Dmitry's similar solution there.

HI,
Can anyone develop a plugin to send notification when the news updated?

Many thanks for this hint. Actually, there is no need to change the sources. Just save the following snippet as redmine/config/initializers/mailer_send_news_notifications_to_all_members.rb

module MailerSendNewsNotificationsToAllMembers
  def self.included(base)
    base.class_eval {
      include InstanceMethods
      alias_method_chain :news_added, :all_recipients
    }
  end

  module InstanceMethods
      def news_added_with_all_recipients(news)
        news_added_without_all_recipients(news)
        recipients news.project.members.collect {|m| m.user}.collect {|u| u.mail}
      end
  end
end

Mailer.send(:include, MailerSendNewsNotificationsToAllMembers)

Many thanks for this hint. Actually, there is no need to change the sources. Just save the following snippet as redmine/config/initializers/mailer_send_news_notifications_to_all_members.rb

I do not understand why system will start use this snippet ? is it require some settings adjustment...

I've tried to create this file and restart redmine but nothing happend, emails still not sent out.

Could you help me ?

What type of system are you using? Linux? Windows? If you follow the above script and you're using a Linux-based machine, you shouldn't have a problem. Sheetrock Prices

I have Ubuntu. I just put code above into this newly created file
mailer_send_news_notifications_to_all_members.rb
and nothing did more (except restart apache, because my redmine works under apache via the Passenger)

btw, issue email notifications works well

The file must be placed into directory config/initializers. It is picked up from there by convention. Not further configuration is required.

Yes i did that. I put it into that folder as mentioned in message above. How I can debug or make sure that this piece of code is running, after I added new News ?

Except this file I have couple files into the same folder
..
10-patches.rb
20-mime_types.rb
30-redmine.rb
backtrace_silencers.rb
bigdecimal-segfault-fix.rb
inflections.rb
mailer_send_news_notifications_to_all_members.rb
session_store.rb


The author of the news item is excluded from the recipients list. This is also true for this patch. You should play with two accounts to verify if it is working.

You could add below the line "news_added_without_all_recipients(news)" this log statement to see if the patch is active at least:

logger.info "I was here" 

Actually I had play this two accounts from beginning. Now i add the "log info" line into file where you said, and nothing happens again.
In logs i could see only next info
