<ul></ul><p>Look <a class="wiki-page" href="https://www.redmine.org/projects/redmine/wiki/RedmineIssueList">here</a> to get a proper explanation of "For all projects", which only means that the query shows up in the query list on all projects across your Redmine installation. The behavior you noted is correct, if you are on "My Page" then you have a "global" scope for your query operation. If you view one of those issues, then you are now looking at an individual project, and you now have a "project" scope for your query operation.</p> Redmine - Defect #980: "For all projects" custom querieshttps://www.redmine.org/issues/980?journal_id=21622008-04-03T23:57:27ZPaul Macdonnell
<ul></ul><p>If that's the way they're supposed to work, that's ok, I just would have thought it would have kept a global scope to include all issues rather than switch to a project scope. That's just how I envisioned it working.<br />I would have liked to have been able to click on my custom query again (when viewing an issue) and go back to the global list, that way I can keep working with the same set of issues, without have to get out of the project scope. Is there an easier to switch from project scope to global scope, other than going back through "My page" -> "View all issues" (in "Issues assigned to me") -> click my custom query?</p>
<p>It just seems counter-intuitive to me.</p> Redmine - Defect #980: "For all projects" custom querieshttps://www.redmine.org/issues/980?journal_id=26912008-05-08T23:41:59ZM T
<ul></ul><p>I agree with Paul...this aspect probably needs a litle more fleshing out in Redmine.</p> Redmine - Defect #980: "For all projects" custom querieshttps://www.redmine.org/issues/980?journal_id=126492009-12-02T22:57:20ZMischa The Evil

<ul></ul><p>I agree that this is an odd counter-intuitive behavior. I'd love to see an option to allow a custom query to be global in scope anywhere it appears. It is convenient to have the report appear when I am looking at a project, but I still want to it to be global in scope anytime it runs.</p> Redmine - Defect #980: "For all projects" custom querieshttps://www.redmine.org/issues/980?journal_id=301452011-06-21T22:07:15ZSebastian M
<ul></ul><p>Just a +1... I like the idea of the current "for all projects" functionality, but it is confusing for people who open a query that is designed to be run at a global scope, and it's not showing all records.</p>
<p>Some better visual indication including a link to pull out to global scope would be good.</p> Redmine - Defect #980: "For all projects" custom querieshttps://www.redmine.org/issues/980?journal_id=345902011-12-08T18:57:28ZBryan Greenaway
<ul></ul><p>My company was running a very old redmine version 0.9.1 where no matter what issue/project you were viewing when you click a custom query it would run it globally. I still have all the source code backed up but I can't find where in the code this is happening, as I am very new to Ruby. Could someone let me know where the code that build the custom query URL is located so I can compare it with the legacy source code I have? If I find a solution I would be happy to update the community with it.</p> Redmine - Defect #980: "For all projects" custom querieshttps://www.redmine.org/issues/980?journal_id=350492011-12-28T11:44:02ZFernando Hartmann

<ul></ul><p>I too would love a way to make a custom query that is cross-project. I spend a lot of time focusing on particular projects at a time, but sometimes need to look at cross-project queries and right now it is very awkward to have to leave the project to do so.</p> Redmine - Defect #980: "For all projects" custom querieshttps://www.redmine.org/issues/980?journal_id=454862013-02-10T02:47:05ZFilou Centrinov

Concluding the problem:
<ol>
<li>By clicking a ticket from the global issue view it changes the focus unnoticeable (<a class="issue tracker-1 status-1 priority-4 priority-default" title="Defect: Clicking on an issue in a subproject changes focus of "View all issues" (New)" href="https://www.redmine.org/issues/1811">#1811</a>)</li>
<li>To get back into the global issue view the click path is quite long and circuitous (<a class="issue tracker-2 status-5 priority-4 priority-default closed" title="Feature: Add "view all projects' issues" link to issues sidebar (Closed)" href="https://www.redmine.org/issues/11940">#11940</a>, <a class="issue tracker-2 status-5 priority-3 priority-lowest closed" title="Feature: Add "View all issues" link to top_menu + home (Closed)" href="https://www.redmine.org/issues/7935">#7935</a>)

<p>In general scope changing is very confusing for users. They open a query at parent project what shows their issues in all subprojects, opens an issue from subproject (sometimes not even knowing), then they click Issues tab (again not knowing that this is Issues tab from different project they have started from) are surprised seeing different list...</p>
<p>I think the "For all projects" option should be at least renamed to "Visible for all projects" as this is all what it does. Currently, it does suggest that it does a search through all projects. This should be easy.</p>
<p>I would like also to see an option like "search scope" (current project/this project/global) so that where ever the "Visible for all projects" query is open from, it always jumps to the scope it was created for.</p> Redmine - Defect #980: "For all projects" custom querieshttps://www.redmine.org/issues/980?journal_id=767062017-02-15T21:08:41ZVladimir Perepechenko

<p>maybe would be better for search scope:<br />current project/my projects (projects I'm related )/All progects</p>
<p>or just for simplicity:</p>

<ul></ul><p>Dears,</p>
<p>first of all - THANKS a lot for all the work and great product which redmine is!</p>
<p>We would like to really ask you for similar function as discussed above as well...</p>
<p>Even it make sense from some point of view, it's confusing and even for me(who understand current behaviour).<br /> I quite often click on custom quiery in all issues AND all projects context - than I choose an issue I want to see/update <del>> project context is changed...<br /> I use custom query again then and will got list of project issues only...after some time of thinking why I see fewer issues I usually realise: OH I have to go back to all issues of all projects(long way or stupid browser bookmark) and used the custom query then...</del>( This sucks...</p>
<p>I would propose to add checkbox/functionality to use custom queries for ALL issues of ALL project - and ignoring project context. This could be optional functionality only.</p>
<p>Could you please help us with this?</p>

<p>Count me in. Most of the time I want general reports that do not implicitly depend on the current project.</p>
