How to hide "New issue" tab, but still giving the user the permission of creating issues

Added by David Nielsen over 9 years ago

Dear all,

The context is: fisrt, we have anonymous users creating issues in only one project. Then, we have a certain type of user whose only task is opening these issues and copying them to different projects. We will call this user a "distributor", since all it does is identifying the right destination project, and copying issues there. For that, we need to give the "distributors" the permission of creating issues, so that new issues can be created in other projects, via "Copy" button.

However, when allowing distributors to create new issues, a tab named "New issues" is visible. But we don't want distributors to create new issues from scratch, but only copy issues created by anonymous.

Everything would work fine if, even allowing distributors to create issues, the tab "New issue" could be hidden.

Could anybody please give me a hand on how to do this?

I am using:
Redmine version 2.6.0.stable.13738
Ruby version 1.9.3-p484 (2013-11-22) [x86_64-linux]
Rails version 3.2.21
Database adapter Mysql2

Thank you!
