h1. Application Settings
{{>TOC}}
h2. General settings
h3. Application title
Title which appears in heading of the application. This is the link just under the little bar with « Home/My page/Projects/Help» when you're logged in.
h3. Welcome text
Text displayed on the home page of Redmine.
h3. Objects per page options
Here you can configure the fixed values which users can select for the amount of objects (issues, commits etc.) which are displayed per page.
_Default: 25, 50, 100_
h3. Search results per page
The number of [[RedmineSearch|search]] results which are displayed per page.
_Default: 20_
h3. Days displayed on project activity
The initial (and recurring while browsing) amount of days of which the project(s)-activity is shown in the [[RedmineProjectActivity|activity]]-tab.
h3. Host name and path
Host name and path of your Redmine server. This name is used to write URL in emails sent to users. i.e.: the hostname of this precise Redmine is redmine.org.
Redmine guesses the value of this setting and displays it as an example below the text box. The guessed value is appropriate for your Redmine server in most cases.
h3. Protocol
Protocol used to generate links in email notifications. _Default: http_
Links in email are "guessed", but can't determine whether you're using an unsecured web server (http) or a secure one (https -> http over SSL).
h3. Text formatting
Formatting method applied to the "description" fields of the issues, news, documents...
You can select *Textile* _(default)_ or *Markdown*.
h3. Cache formatted text (1.0)
Text formatting transforms raw text to HTML and runs each time a formatted text is sent to a user's browser (eg. issue description, wiki page...), and this process can be slow with large pages or texts.
This setting lets you enable caching of formatted text.
The storage to be used to store cached data depends on the configuration of a cache store. The default cache store is "FileStore":http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActiveSupport/Cache/FileStore.html. It stores cached data as files in @tmp/cache@ directory.
You can configure to change the cache store to other one such as "MemoryStore":http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActiveSupport/Cache/MemoryStore.html and "MemCacheStore":http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActiveSupport/Cache/MemCacheStore.html by adding a setting like @config.cache_store = :memory_store@ to your @config/environments/production.rb@, for example:
<pre>
Rails.application.configure do
# Settings specified here will take precedence over those in config/application.rb
config.cache_store = :memory_store
...
</pre>
You can read more about cache stores in the Rails guides:
http://guides.rubyonrails.org/caching_with_rails.html#cache-stores
h3. Wiki history compression
Lets you activate compression for wiki history storage (reduces database size). _Default: disabled_
h3. Maximum number of items in Atom feeds
Maximum number of records contained in Atom feeds. _Default: 15_
h2. Display
h3. Theme
This option lets you choose a custom theme.
Redmine is shipped with two additional themes besides the [[ThemeDefault|default]] theme:
* [[ThemeAlternate|alternate]], which mainly provides issue list colorization based on issues priority.
* [[ThemeClassic|classic]], which is derived from the Redmine 0.5.1 design and brings a _classic_ look.
Screenshot of the [[ThemeAlternate|alternate]] theme:
!alternate_theme.png!
Themes are located in @public/themes/@. You can read more about [[Themes]].
h3. Default language
The default language is selected when the application could not determine the user's browser language. The default language is also used when sending email to multiple users. _Default: English_

Disables "Language" setting on [[RedmineAccounts#My-account|My account]] page and force [[RedmineSettings#Default-language|default language]] for logged-in users.
h3. Start calendars on
Lets you choose the first day of the week.
The default value is "Based on user's language". With this setting, the first day of the week varies by user. For example, if the user's language is set to English, the calendar starts on Sunday.
(WIP)
h3. Date format
Lets you choose how dates are displayed:
* *Based on user's language*: dates will be displayed specifically for each user, according to the format defined for its language

h3. Autologin
This option let users use the auto-login feature. _Default: Disabled_
h3. Self-registration
This option lets you enable/disable new users self registration:
* *disabled*: users are not allowed to register
* *account activation by email*: new users receive an email containing a link used to activate their accounts (users must provide a valid email address).
* *manual account activation* _(default)_: new users' accounts are created but need administrator approval. Administrators receive an email informing them that an account is pending their approval.
* *automatic account activation*: new users can log in as soon as they have registered.
h3. Show custom fields on registration
(WIP)
h3. Allow users to delete their own account
(WIP)

h3. Allow OpenID login and registration
Provides the admin a way to disable OpenID logins and registrations.
Note that the setting is immutable as long as the dependency for the feature (an installed copy of the @ruby-openid@ gem) is not met.
h3. Session expiration
Session maximum lifetime: Lets the administrator set the maximum lifetime of the session
Session inactivity timeout: Lets the administrator specify after how many hours of inactivity the session times out.
%{color:red}Warning 1%: Changing these settings may expire the current sessions (including your own).
%{color:red}Warning 2%: Redmine uses the rails cookiestore for session management. We strongly advise you to set a maximum session lifetime. If you don't, it is theoretically possible that an attacker steals the session cookie and re-uses it.

This setting will let Redmine propose sequential project identifiers for you. This can still be manually changed only while creating the project, not afterward.
h3. Role given to a non-admin user who creates a project
Defines which role is given by default to a non-admin user who creates a project (this only applies when you have configured Redmine permissions in such a way that non-admin users are actually privileged to create projects).
h2. Issue tracking
h3. Allow cross-project issue relations
If set to Yes, relations between issues from different projects can be created. _Default: No_
h3. Link issues on copy
(WIP)

When entering multiple encodings, the first valid encoding regarding the file content is used.
For French users, this option can be for example set to:
UTF-8, ISO 8859-15, CP1252

h3. Enable WS for incoming emails
Redmine can be configured to allow issue creation or comments via email. In order to use that feature, you have to enable the API that receives emails. That is where this setting is for. _Default: Off_
h3. API key
Within this setting you can enter a secret key used for the issue creation or comments via email feature.
h2. Repositories
h3. Enabled SCM
Here you can (de)select the SCM-systems Redmine should "provide" to the individual projects. This setting is useful if you only support several SCM-systems (e.g. only Git or only SVN).
h3. Fetch commits automatically
If this option is activated, the application automatically retrieves the new revisions when a user consults the repository.
_Default: Yes_
You can disable this option and automate the call to Repository#fetch_changesets using cron to regularly retrieve the revisions for all of the repositories in the background.
Example:
<pre>ruby script/runner "Repository.fetch_changesets" -e production</pre>
For Redmine 2.x:
<pre>ruby script/rails runner "Repository.fetch_changesets" -e production</pre>
For Redmine 3.x:
<pre>bin/rails runner "Repository.fetch_changesets" -e production</pre>
You can also call this task from your repository in a post-commit or post-receive hook, so that changesets are fetched after each commit.
Here is a tutorial for doing so with git: http://web.archive.org/web/20160523024839/http://www.barricane.com/remine-git-post-receive.html
h3. Enable WS for repository management
This option should be activated only if you installed the script for automatic SVN repository creation. _Default: No_
h3. Maximum number of revisions displayed on file log
It provides a way to limit the amount of revisions which are retrieved from the SCM for a certain, browsed path.
h3. Apply text formatting to commit messages
(WIP)
h3. Referencing issues in commit messages
When fetched from the repositories, commit messages are scanned for referenced or fixed issue IDs.
These options lets you define keywords that can be used in commit message to reference or fix issues automatically, and the status to apply to fixed issues.
Default keywords are:
* for referencing issues: refs, references, IssueID
* for fixing issues: fixes, closes
There's no default status defined for fixed issue. You'll have to specify it if you want to enable auto closure of issues.
If you want to reference issues without using keywords, enter a single star: * in the *Referencing keywords* (Administration/Repository) setting. In this case, any issue ID found in the message will be linked to the changeset.
Example of a working commit message using default keywords:
This commit refs #1, #2 and fixes #3
This message would reference issues 1 and 2 and automatically fix issue 3.
After a keyword issue IDs can be separated with a space, a comma or &.
The keywords are caseinsensitive and at least one blankspace or colon is needed between the keyword and the first hash to produce
a match. More examples that will produce the same result as the example above:<pre>
This commit refs:#1, #2 and fixes #3
This commit Refs #1, #2 and fixes #3
This commit REFS: #1, #2 and fixes #3
</pre>
h3. Enable time logging
Allows time logging directly from commit messages. This only makes sense if you activated the "Time tracking" module in said project. In this case, you can add special words in your commit message to indicate the time you spent on an issue.
The basic syntax for doing that is : @@<time>@, where time consists in a number of hours or minutes.
Here's a list of many valid commit messages that would work if you want to say you spent N hours on issue 1234: <pre>
Implement feature #1234 @2
Implement feature #1234 @2h
Implement feature #1234 @2hours
Implement feature #1234 @15m
Implement feature #1234 @15min
Implement feature #1234 @3h15
Implement feature #1234 @3h15m
Implement feature #1234 @3:15
Implement feature #1234 @3.25
Implement feature #1234 @3.25h
Implement feature #1234 @3,25
Implement feature #1234 @3,25h
</pre>
h3. Activity for logged time
This is the type of activity that should be used when detecting there's a log time in a commit message (see above).
