Redmine

I also think this is a good idea. I ended up creating a "restricted view" custom field for users so that I could hide many of the things that Redmine shows by default.

José, if you haven't already done it, you could edit lib/redmine.rb and make the following changes to restrict access to the Activity view.

 # Permissions
 Redmine::AccessControl.map do |map|
-  map.permission :view_project, {:projects => [:show, :activity]}, :public => true
+  map.permission :view_project, {:projects => [:show]}, :public => true
   map.permission :search_project, {:search => :index}, :public => true
   map.permission :edit_project, {:projects => [:settings, :edit]}, :require => :member
+  map.permission :view_activity, {:projects => [:activity]}
   map.permission :select_project_modules, {:projects => :modules}, :require => :member

You would then need to set "View activity" in Administration -> "Roles and permissions" if you wanted a user to see the activity.

Thanks, Mark, I'll try it.

Hello:

I am also interestedd about this feature, Mark I've tried your solution,I get the checkbox in the role view but no effect after restarting redmine. :(

Richardo,

Are you trying out the permissions as a user with "administrator" set? If so, try testing it with a non-admin user who has "View activity" unchecked.

If that doesn't work, let me know and I will have another look at what I changed.

Cheers,
Mark

Hello Mark:

No, the user I'm trying with has the flag "administrator" off. :(
I can move the rhtml page out but it's very ugly solution.
thx for your help

Another ping for this feature in the core.

Mark, I did your quick update and I was able to disable Activity views for roles. Thanks for sharing that!

PS: Seems related to Issue #849.

Ok, so now the question I have is: how do I prevent access to the
