I would to change the mail subject to include value from a custom field.
Is there any way to do it?

This would require patching core or writing a custom plugin.

I noticed that the email subject is hardcoded into the app/models/mailer.rb file, line 46.
So I think you have to edit this file in order to get different texts.
But I really don't know so well how to edit...

in mailer.rb i get :

s = "[#{issue.project.name} - #{issue.tracker.name} ##{issue.id}] " 
    s << "(#{issue.status.name}) " if journal.new_value_for('status_id')
    s << issue.subject
    subject s

My issues are stored with the following structure :

Project
Sub Project
Issue

So i want to get

[Project - Sub Project] [Issue]

Anyone can help me to get the Parent project from "issue.project" ?

Thanks

Try issue.project.parent.name.

OK ... shame on me !

Thanks ;-)

I would like to use the @issue.project.parent.name to display the parent project name in emails.
So I changed the templates and it works well when I am in a sub project. But if I try to edit an issue in a root project, I have an error 500 as there is no parent project:

ActionView::TemplateError (undefined method `name' for nil:NilClass)

I would like to insert an 'if' to ask for the parent.name only when it exists. Can somebody tell me how to do this? Or have another workaround.
Thanks

Dear All,

Is it possible to change the way to write the email object field ?

I want to get : "[Project Name] [tracker] [Issue]" instead of the default text.

I'm attaching a patch modifying app/models/mailer.rb implementing the following scheme for the mail subject:

[Parent Project Name] [Subproject Name] [tracker] [Issue]

If creating or updating an issue within a top-level project it will take the default scheme:

[Project Name] [tracker] [Issue]

I've tested it on redmine 2.5.1.

Have a look at it, it should answer your question.
