Redmine Stealth plugin

Sometimes sneaky is good. This plugin works like a mute button for Redmine notification emails.

This is a plugin for the Redmine project management application that allows users to temporarily disable the automatic emails which are sent out (depending on configuration) when content is added or changed, such as when updating issues or wiki pages. The intent of this plugin is to allow users to make bulk changes or minor corrections without flooding the inboxes of other users of a project.

Version 0.6.0 adds support for Redmine 2.1.*, renews support for Redmine 2.0.* and 1.4.*, and adds Russian and Czech translations. (Thank you, Vladimir and jasir!)

Install

Install the redmine_stealth plugin into your redmine application directory:
- Redmine 1: git clone http://github.com/teleological/redmine_stealth.git vendor/plugins/redmine_stealth
- Redmine 2: git clone http://github.com/teleological/redmine_stealth.git plugins/redmine_stealth
Restart any running Redmine application servers, or for Passenger, touch tmp/restart.txt
Configure the per-role permissions for "Toggle stealth mode" as desired

Upgrading

If you are upgrading from a version earlier than v0.6.0, be sure to rename the installation directory from "redmine-stealth-plugin" to "redmine_stealth".

Usage

Click "Enable stealth mode" in the account menu in the upper right corner. If you don't see this option, the "Toggle stealth mode" permission may not be enabled for your role.
Do whatever it is that needs doing. Redmine will not send emails as a result of your actions while stealth mode is enabled. Other users's actions will continue to send email unless they have also activated stealth mode.
Click "Disable stealth mode" in the account menu. Don't worry. You got away with it.

Dependencies

Developed with Redmine 1.4.3. Initially developed against Redmine 0.9.1, and earlier versions were reported to work with versions up to 1.3-stable. May work with older or newer versions. Let me know!
