Happy New Year everyone!

To kick things off, I'm releasing the first iteration of the 3.x branch of the redmine_knowledgebase.

This release changes the plugin focus from being "pseudo-global" to project-based, and as such will require existing knowledgebases to be "massaged" slightly in order to get them to work (basically just ensuring a valid project_id is set for categories/articles).

As this is a major update, I anticipate there may be some initial issues. Please feel free to report any difficulties on the project page at https://github.com/alexbevi/redmine_knowledgebase.

  by Mario Luzeiro over 9 years ago

Alex is giving support to this plugin for more than 4 years now showing his dedication to plugin, keeping it alive. This plugin does its job and is very simple to use.

  by mike B over 9 years ago

Very simple. Perfect. Only been using it for 30 minutes and have already created a better KB than what we have on our server...suggestions: add the ability to "mention" or link other articles within articles and also a collapsible tree view for categorie

By far one of my favorite plugins.

  by Robert Schneider almost 10 years ago

Works perfect! However, it would be nice if the structure is more focused. Not the highest rated, most popular and last edited files. Those information is less important, they could be on the right side.

Excellent!
