Redmine Collapse plugin¶
Redmine Collapse is a plugin which transforms the default Redmine sidebar into a collapsible sidebar with additional tabs.
Features¶
- Replaces the Redmine core's sidebar
- The provided sidebar is collapsible using JavaScript-helpers
- The default sidebar-content is available on the default Actions-tab
- An optional Projects-tab provides (nested) project-links of projects for which the current user has a role;
- on Redmine 0.8.0 project-links are pointing to project overviews
- on Redmine 0.8.1 project-links are pointing to the currently-watched views in the selected project (if available)
- Optionally, the core's project-selector drop-down menu can be hidden
- All the used strings can be centrally translated to every language (currently only English and Dutch are translated, for others stubs are provided)
