OpenProject 12.0.0

Release date: 2021-11-15

We released OpenProject 12.0.0. This release will change the way how you work with OpenProject. We have introduced the concept of in-app notifications. A new notification center in OpenProject will display changes in your projects directly in the application. This reduces the flood of emails in your inbox significantly. Additionally, you can add daily email summaries to keep up to date about latest updates and changes.

Introducing in-app notifications

The new in-app notifications let you never miss a change in your projects again. Now, you receive all important updates directly in the application and don’t get a flood of emails in your inbox anymore. The new bell symbol in the header navigation displays the number of unread notifications.

Go to our user guide to find out how to configure in-app notifications.

Notification center

The new notification center shows all notifications about changes within your projects, including intuitive filter options in the menu on the left, e.g. by reason for notification or by projects. Clicking on the notification will open the details of a work package. you can directly edit it in a split view. The blue elliptical indicates the number of unread notifications about changes within one work package.

Improved notification settings

The improved notification settings now allow to fine-tune for which actions and in which projects you want to receive a notification. With 12.0 you can now even add project-specific settings for changes you want to be notified about and override the default settings.

Email summaries

In addition to the in-app notifications, also email reminders can be configured to receive important updates in a daily (or more often) email summary. These email reminders can be configured to receive also additional notifications about changes in your projects, e.g. new or updated memberships in a project.

Improved work packages auto-completer

The work package auto-completer for relations now also shows additional information (project name, status, …). It is now much easier to identify the respective work package.

Export of the project list

With OpenProject 12.0 it is now possible to export the project list with all project specific information, incl. project custom fields. You can choose between the formats XLS and CSV export.

Change of roles and permissions settings

With 12.0 we have added more granular rights for projects, for example the addtional right to configure the project overview page. This way you can even better assign certain permissions to a role in a project.

Drop official support for PostgreSQL < 13

OpenProject 12.0 will deprecate PostgreSQL versions < 13. This will result in a warning about the necessary migration to inform users trying to upgrade with an older version. The warning will be shown on startup and on the Administration > Info page. It will not result in a hard error for now.
