Redmine

In my Redmine configuration I have a "very poor" role without permission "View Issues" and "View spent time".
But when accessing projets page with a user having only this role I have the projects menu :

View all issues | Overall spent time | Overall activity

... and I can access those links when clicking.

Is there a bug or did I missunderstood something ?

This is not a defect actually. You won't see issues, spent-time entries or other activity from projects which are not public and where the specific user don't have permissions to according to his role for the project.

Those three views are always visible to any user but only the data the user has explicitly access to is actually displayed.

Ok, now I understand the utility of the public flag for a project !
But this time I don't understand the need for the 2 permissions "view issues" and "view spent time" if they are never used !

They are used actually. All the permissions are assignable to seperate roles in which project members can operate for each seperate (not-public) project.
