Redmine Custom Help URL plugin (v.0.0.2)

Added by Mischa The Evil over 11 years ago

Several days ago I had some spare time and I decided to craft a small new plugin, which should provide a generic feature to customize the URL of the Help link in the top menu (as requested in #9355 and #12969) without hacking the core code.
The result (which I've already pushed to GitHub on feb. 21st) is the Redmine Custom Help URL plugin; currently at v.0.0.2.

This plugin should be compatible with both Redmine 1.x and 2.x, but has (yet) only been tested on 1.x!

Some known issues exists currently:
  1. Current way of altering the menu is a bit hackish; this due to troubles accessing Setting.* during plugin registration (there exists a Redmine issue about this already).
  2. Redmine must be restarted after changing "Custom Help URL" value before the new url is used; most likely this is caused by 1.
  3. Redmine 2.x compatibility must be tested.

You can check out the details about it in its readme page, through GitHub: https://github.com/MischaTheEvil/redmine_custom_help_url#readme.
I welcome any contributors; specifically those who can collaborate on fixing the known issues :).

Greetings,

Mischa.

Start with adding your own issues and the redmine issue id attached to ur github repo issue list. I will test on redmine 2.x as soon as (1) is fixed ;)
