some setup questions

Added by Martin B almost 15 years ago

Hi,

I'm just starting to look at Redmine. I have 0.8.4 installed but will be installing 0.9.something soon. I haven't been able to figure out how to do the following:

- how to set default estimated time for bug, features

- can the source code repos be on a different machine (looks like it but I haven' tested it)? If so, will there be any less functionality than if it were on the Redmine machine?

- how do you configure email notification, so by default the bug reporter and component owner get emailed when a bug is posted or modified?

- how to make it so only signed in users can see stuff?

Thanks!

  1. No default estimated time, sorry.
  2. Yes, and it shouldn't impede any functionality.
  3. The issue creator gets emails for every change to this issue, users can choose to watch issues, users can add other users as watchers (though this is a special permission), watchers will be notified by mail of every change to that issue in the time they watch the issue, and users can choose to watch a whole project and get notified of everything happening in this project, lastly, you can assign a category to a user, who will then get assigned every new issue with no assignee but with a matching category. Just play around with it a little bit, I'm sure you'll be able to tune it to what you need.
  4. There's a complete RBAC system, but in essence you have anonymous, logged in users and project members. You can allow or disallow anonymous users (Administration > Configuration > Authentication > Authentication required), and you can allow or disallow non-members to see a project by making it public or not.
