Feature #31518

Default due date for new issues with configurable offset from today
Added by Go MAEDA almost 7 years ago.
Updated 28 days ago.
Description
It would be nice if we can configure Redmine to set a default due date for issues (N days from today).
Due date is important in Redmine. Issues without a due date are not notified by email reminders and sometimes forgotten by users. I am sure that this feature is simple but helpful for users.

The request for the display form is different for each site and project,
Especially in large scale environments.
It is good to be able to change the setting for each server / project.
Project level settings override server level settings.

Closing as a duplicate of #13296.
I wrote a patch for this feature.
This patch adds a new setting for a default due date on new issues. When "Enable default due date for new issues" is enabled, the new issue form opens with Due date already filled in. The default value is defined as an offset from today. For example, if the offset is `0`, the due date is set to today.
Like the existing "Use current date as start date for new issues" setting, this also applies to issue creation by email, so a default due date is set there as well.
