Redmine

Hi all,

I just moved and upgraded Redmine including three plugins from version 4.1.1 (installed via Bitnami on a Windows virtual machine) to version 5.0.5 (manually installed on Debian) using the same theme for the new version. That went pretty smooth (except some issues I had with installing apache on Debian, but that's not redmine's fault ;-) ). After upgrading the news section on the main page is not visible though there are news entries and this project is public. I even added a new entry for testing purposes. In the html code I found the following entry:

<link rel="alternate" type="application/atom+xml" title="Intranet: Letzte News" href="https://[...].de/news.atom?key=46e0fd6b82ccc3164842049181b1e9c2b77fa6e0" />

Does anyone have an idea where I could have a look why the news area is not displayed?

Further, we had a customized top menu showing all available projects depending on the user.

We used the plugin "Additionals". Unfortunately it seems that in the current version of this plugin Doesn't support this feature any more.

That's the config menu of the old version:

And here's the config menu of the old version:

Edited: I found this documentation to edit any menu: https://www.redmine.org/projects/redmine/wiki/Plugin_Tutorial#Extending-menus. So I was able to add additional links to the menu and remove existing links. Is it possible to show a link in the menu only if I'm member of a specific project? My code looks looks like this right now:

  menu :top_menu, :wiki, "https://kwredmine.kraus-weisert.de/projects/k-w-wiki", caption: 'Wiki', after: :main
  menu :top_menu, :admin_wiki, "https://kwredmine.kraus-weisert.de/projects/k-w-admin-wiki", caption: 'Admin Wiki', after: :wiki
  menu :top_menu, :issues, "https://kwredmine.kraus-weisert.de/projects/kw-ticketsystem", caption: 'Ticketsystem', after: :admin_wiki
  delete_menu_item :top_menu, :my_page
  delete_menu_item :top_menu, :projects

Would be nice, if it was something like that:

  menu :top_menu, :wiki, "https://kwredmine.kraus-weisert.de/projects/k-w-wiki", caption: 'Wiki', after: :main
  [if member of project k-w-admin-wiki]
  menu :top_menu, :admin_wiki, "https://kwredmine.kraus-weisert.de/projects/k-w-admin-wiki", caption: 'Admin Wiki', after: :wiki
  [/if]
  menu :top_menu, :issues, "https://kwredmine.kraus-weisert.de/projects/kw-ticketsystem", caption: 'Ticketsystem', after: :admin_wiki

If you need any further information please let me know.

Best regards
