An overview of Redmine's global plugin settings

Redmine provides plugin authors with an integrated configuration system in order to simplify the management of configuration values:

Plugin settings are only available to Redmine users with administrator privileges. For these users, a summary of all plugins is available at http://localhost:3000/admin/plugins.

If a plugin has been configured to provide an administrator with a settings view, a Configure link will be available.

The information that is displayed for each plugin in the list is pulled from the name, author, author_url, description, url, and version attributes that were provided to the Redmine::Plugin.register block in each plugin's init.rb file.

Note

As of Redmine 2.3.4, which was released on November 17, 2013, the plugin settings management interface is only available for global configuration. There are no functionalities provided in order to manage custom per-project settings.
