Compatibility

This plugin version is compatible only with Redmine 3.3.0 and later.

Installation

  1. To install the plugin

    • Download the .ZIP archive, extract files and copy the plugin directory into #{REDMINE_ROOT}/plugins.

    Or

    • Change you current directory to your Redmine root directory:

        cd {REDMINE_ROOT}

Usage

This plugin sends email notifications to users specified in the Custom field of the User format.

If the user specified in the custom field is changed, both the previous user and the new user will receive notifications.

To create a custom field in Redmine

  1. Go to Administration > Custom fields and click New custom field.

  2. Select the required type of object to which you want to attach the custom field, e.g. Issues. Click Next.
  3. Select the User format in the drop-down list and specify the field name. Click Save.

When you create or edit an issue, you can use the created field to select a user you want to notify by email.
