Redmine

An option would be to include a button, assign to next available target/version

Mischa The Evil : i know

This ticket is mainly to help people when creating a ticket, if you have numerous versions, i would like the system to be smart enough to select the next upcoming version, or to allow me to set a "default" version on the version management page ("Project" -> "<yourproject>" -> "Settings" -> "Tab: Versions")

I am not sure i agree. Customers always want everything in the next buxfix release no matter what risks and size constraints that are connected to an issue. Even bigger problem when it comes to a Request for Change.

I would rather suggest a "default" checkbox for versions if needed. But then again, i would also like to be able to restrict some roles from using that field at all. When a user sets target version to next bugfix version, others might believe that. We see that all the time on this board as well.

/T

We are having continuing problems with reporters setting an inappropriate "Target version".

Having a default value would definitely be of use - as with several other fields, but the ability to restrict certain roles from assigning them on a per field basis would be of most use.

I also need target version not to be empty by default. It is simple and sensible request.

its really should be in core features :) Any patch will be helpful.

I would be nice if a current default version could be set.

I have problems with email created tickets not showing up on the issues list because they don't have a target version set.
One has to log into Redmine and manually set the target version, and the assigned to.

Here is a modified version of the above patch which only sets the default version when adding a new issue (not when editing an issue).

Whoops, I screwed up making the patch. For this, in app/views/issues/_attributes.rhtml, apply the following diff.

who can test this and integrate into trunk?

Does this patch work with Redmine 1.0.1?
I've tried it and got an internal error while trying to open "settings" of project. :(

So had to unpatch and everything works now...

I am using the latest redmine and everything works fine. What is the output of your log?

Rendering /opt/dist/ruby/redmine-1.0.1/public/500.html (500 Internal Server Error)

The patch involves a database update. rake db:migrate should do the trick for you.

Well thanks! Error disappeared :)
Now I cant figure out how to set "default version": I looked at project settings and didn't find anything related ... o_O

You should find it under Administration --> Projects --> Select a project --> Information tab --> Default version

Well this feature appeared just after restarting Apache :) Thanks!

is this a part of 1.0.3 release?

I noticed that I could no longer set a default version after updating to 1.0.5. You need to add default_version_id to the safe_attributes list in app/models/project.rb

Is this going to get rolled into the trunk at all?

I have create a plugin with patches provided here + safe_attributes: http://www.redmine.org/plugins/default-version

Could this be be released in trunk, as requested 12 months ago?

Thanks for plugin!

+1

It should be released asap

+1

I'd like to have this feature, with some of the ideas posted here.

Tony's plugin posted above doesn't work with Redmine 1.3+, only until 1.2

I'm maintaining the new working fork at https://github.com/benasher44/redmine_default_version as specified in Tony Marschall's github repo readme. The latest update works with rails 2 and 3 and redmine versions 1.2.x-1.4.x and 2.0.x.

can you make it compatible with redmine v2.2.0?

+1 This is very important.

Is there a way to have this feature in redmine 2.3.1 (patch, plugin ?). Thanks

+1

I also have redmine 2.3.1 installed (awsome product btw) and being able to pre-select a default version for a new issue would save time and simplify the process (my users are not very familiar with the process and they always forget to assign a version).

Thank you.

+1

+1 Because we'd like to make the target version mandatory for bug reports but set it to the current live version by default.

+1

Which version has this patch been applied to? I am running version 2.0.4 in a production environment.

Is there any patch or plugin avaialable for 2.4.2 or 2.5.2

+1

+1 This would be very helpful for backlog items.
