redmine_issue_template's Issues

Install issue on Debian9

On a fresh installed Debian9 I installed Redmine with maria-db like described there: https://wiki.debian.org/redmine

It works without problems.

Then I tried to install the redmine_issue_template plugin but
bundle exec rake redmine:plugins:migrate RAILS_ENV=production
failed with:
== 20131021081917 AddStiToIssueTemplates: migrating ===========================
-- add_column(:issue_templates, :type, :string)
rake aborted!
StandardError: An error has occurred, all later migrations canceled:

Mysql2::Error: Duplicate column name 'type': ALTER TABLE issue_templates ADD type varchar(255)

I changed in: /usr/share/redmine/plugins/redmine_issue_template/db/migrate/20131021081917_add_sti_to_issue_templates.rb
to:
class AddStiToIssueTemplates < ActiveRecord::Migration
def change
# add_column :issue_templates, :type, :string
add_index :issue_templates, :type
end
end

The plugin loads, but if I want to add a new ticket, i get the error "there is no status as default defined." But in Administration->Ticket-Status I can not define a default status.

Any hints? :-)
Thanks

Hide Template Field, when there are no Templates defined

Create new tag 1.0.8 with last fix

We want to inject redmine_issue_template plugin into our redmine docker image, and now can't make git clone to specified tag, because that fix is not in v1.0.7 and next version (1.0.8?) is not present.
Using master branch is unsafe, because it can be changed at any time.

Redmine 3.x.x

This is a great plugin, tho' I can't wait till Redmine V3 support is added. ))

Templates cannot be edited

Once created I get only a list of templates and their contents. Editing the template seems to be impossible.

About directory structures for plugins.

Setup an automatic template insertion for certain trackers

I just installed your version of redmine_issue_template as the one I used before did not work anymore after upgrading my redmine installation. I like it very much. However what I am missing is a setting, where I can assign a certain tracker a default template (e.g. for "Bugreport" Tracker "Bug") that is automatically inserted.

Have you foreseen something like this? It would make the template mechanism more effective as it does not rely on the users anymore.

[Bug] missing utf support

When i try to add template with a title or content that contains diacritical letters i get:

ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid (Mysql2::Error: Incorrect string value: '\xC4\x85' for column 'content' at row 1: UPDATE issue_templates SET title = 'template', content = 'ą', updated_at = '2016-06-15 13:35:47' WHERE issue_templates.id = 1):
