5.0.0 (2024-10-05)

Compatible with Redmine 5.1.x, 5.0.x, 4.2.x, 4.1.x, 4.0.x, 3.4.x, 3.3.x, 3.2.x, 3.1.x, 3.0.x.

After many (MANY) years and multiple PR submissions from the community, I've merged the latest (https://github.com/alexbevi/redmine_knowledgebase/pull/411) which should add Redmine 5.0+ support to the plugin.

The Redmine Knowledgebase is still receiving pull requests and issues, but does not have an active maintainer. I (Alex Bevilacqua) stepped away a number of years ago, and Robert (@robspearman) stepped in and took over. It's been a couple years now and Robert's availability is diminished so we're on the lookout for a new steward for the project. If you're interested shoot me an email at alex@alexbevi.com.

Happy New Year everyone!

To kick things off, I'm releasing the first iteration of the 3.x branch of the redmine_knowledgebase.

This release changes the plugin focus from being "pseudo-global" to project-based, and as such will require existing knowledgebases to be "massaged" slightly in order to get them to work (basically just ensuring a valid project_id is set for categories/articles).

As this is a major update, I anticipate there may be some initial issues. Please feel free to report any difficulties on the project page at https://github.com/alexbevi/redmine_knowledgebase.
