v0.15-dev

Notifications in your inbox, a view of all running cycles, and tons of improvements. Yes, an equal number of bugs squashed, too. Dive in. ⬇️

Features

• You asked for it and we delivered.
  Introducing Email Notifications with preference controls #3421 #3457
  

• Introducing Active Cycles
  See all running cycles across projects in your workspace from—wait for it—a single screen. #3378
  

• All-new Dashboards
  Dashboards now sport some swank, with a clean new look and a ton of personalization. #3362
  

• Now, deploy the Plane Docker image in one-click. #3474

Improvements

• When an issue opens in Peek-over view, you now know which issue you have opened—as in you can see it instead of relying on memory and intuition. #3514
• Issues without Start and Target dates also show up in the Gantt layout now. #3487
• Every issue can be added into multiple modules now. #3484
• Guests and Viewers can now comment on issues. We are still working on packing enough difference between those roles that they make a whole lot of sense. #3515
• When you land on a screen and its empty, you will now see a preview for what it's supposed to look like with a comment to help you get the most out of it. #3448
• All non-configured screens for Labels, Integrations, and Estimates now sport clean and helpful messages to help guide you to their set-up. With labels, when you set a label, the empty state goes away. #3319
• All dates everywhere now look and behave the same way—a better and easier way. #3283
• You can now escape, enter, and tab through all modals. Clicking outside a modal works like the Esc key and closes the modal. #3332
• Drag handles in Pages and Issue details are now easier to hold and drag. #3401
• All links in Pages now show a quick-edit menu that lets you remove them, edit them, or copy them. More improvements coming! #3335
• Making all you can do in Pages faster and feel natural took a lot of work. Read the PR for the sausage-making, head over to Pages to try the sausage. #3397
• Galileo, our AI, gets a little better at reading issue titles or your unique texts and coughing up descriptions that you expect. #3276
• By popular feedback, hitting Enter in an issue comment submits the issue now instead of creating a new line. Shift + Enter now to create a new line. #3499
• Code blocks and in-line code are easier to toggle on and off. Use space to exit out of in-line-code writing and stay in the same line or with the right-arrow key to go to the next line. #3318, #3446
• Peek-over view and Issues details are now prettier and cleaner. #3447
• Upcoming cycles now show a more accurate message instead of a confusing status message. #3319
• Filtering your issues will now show you a loader icon—sort of like a wait sign—before we show the your filtered issues. This gets rid of the headache-causing flicker from before. #3406
• Making changes to your workspace doesn't show an infinite Loading message. #3319
• Two things. #3415
  • Self-managed instances can now use unique codes to sign in if SMTP is configured.
  • We have a separate sign-up page now for new users. We will make it better over the next few releases.
• Now, when you enter your e-mail address to log in, we don't send you mixed signals about the address. That field is grayed out while you wait for the code, but you can use the X in the corner to enter a different address. #3307
• Similarly, when you move over to the Email field under a user's Settings, you see a mouse cursor that tells you the field is uneditable. #3319
• The menu under your profile icon now closes when you click an item. #3319
• The breadcrumb for Integrations under Workspace settings was called Exports. It's called Integrations now. Much clearer, we hope.
• The Postgres-password problem with local setups is now fixed. #3390
• A ton of changes to make all Issues screens—Layouts, Cycles, Modules—load faster when you land on them the first time, improve updates to issues anywhere, and reflect those changes everywhere. #3228

Bugs

• Cycles and Modules now show up as soon as you are done adding them. No refreshes required. #3466
• Estimates now follow the order you add or update them in rather than by ascending number. #3326
• Switching between two project's Settings pages works right now. #3290
• The cursor in the Identifier field in the Project details modal behaved erratically. It doesn't anymore. #3320
• Custom themes now work correctly for all color fields and the Custom Theme picker doesn't show a Color Picker either. #3284
• There was an unnecessary horizontal scroll on All Issues when you had more views than the screen could contain. That's gone now. #3300
• Hitting Backspace on your keyboard didn't take out the Divider when it came at the end of a page. Backspace removes Dividers now. #3507
• Now you can delete imports without the confirmation box disobeying you. #3445

Security

• Made Plane a little more secure, which we do everyday anyway.

v0.14.2-dev

Improvements

• A No lead option now shows up in Cycle and Module properties—useful when you don’t know who’s leading a cycle or a module and will assign someone later. #3251

Bug fixes

• When running Plane locally with a NGINX proxy, relevant headers are now passed explicitly to switch connections from HTTP to Websocket, courtesy @abidkhan484. #3196
• Discarding issues would show a Save as draft message. That’s gone now. We have also made the Quick-add boxes for issues on Kanban and Calendar layouts wider so you can see more of the issue title. #3218
• Clicking the issue in the Parent issue property removed it, which should have only happened if you clicked the X that showed when you hovered on it. That’s fixed now, so clicking the selected issue now lets you change it. You can still remove a parent issue by clicking the X. #3267
• Activities that don’t fit in one line under Activity in Issue details flow to the next line instead of outside the screen. #3269
• The Activity log now also shows changes to an issue’s title. #3271
• New images in issue details and comments didn’t honor the position of the cursor. Now they do. #3224
• Pages now save their content when you edit or duplicate a page. #3203
• The horizontal scroll on the empty Pages screen is now gone. #3218
• @luandnh helped us turn the maximum allowed file size in uploads the same as the maximum allowed file size everywhere in Plane. Meaning, you won’t get an error after the upload process for a file goes through. You will get it right at the beginning. #3160
• If you leave a Custom Theme field empty, you will now see an error, not an incomplete or ugly theme applied to your project. #3246
• Admins and members couldn’t see the button to create new projects on the empty projects screen. They can now. #3204
• After you sent an invite, the Invite modal wouldn’t reset to its empty state. That’s fixed now. #3189
• Invited users who clicked Accept but didn’t sign up showed up under Members in Workspace settings, but not on the Invite Members modal in Project settings. Now, the tags Pending , Account not created, and Rejected help show their status in your Plane workspace and inform you if you can add them to a project. #3279
• Onboarding screens looped for you right after you signed up? No more looping now. #3250
• Guest and Viewers weren’t supposed to save views or change Date and Label properties. They can’t anymore. #3260
• Thanks to daveanthonyc, we are a little better in our grammar on the empty Labels screen. #3120

v0.14.1-dev

Improvements

• The clickable area for issues on Kanban and List layouts is now larger. #3157
• To make Plane APIs more performant, Workspace and Project APIs now only work for authorized members. #3144
• The sorting in priority has been reversed to have the highest priority listed first. (#3141)
• setup.sh now reflects changes to self-hosted Publish AKA Space. See contributing.md for the new local setup. #3105
• Tooltips now tell you more about Issue props when they are empty.
• Now you can set a From email address in Instance Admin / Email. #3155

Bugs

• Creating an issue deselected the project ID. That’s fixed now. #3131
• Delete and Edit now work in Peek overview of issues. #3134
• The member dropdown in All issues now works right.
• Pesky errors for validating links are now gone. #3147
• Clicking on Assignee and Labels in the right sidebar in Cycles and Modules now applies those filters again. #3142
• Dates in the Date picker now want to be selected as opposed to showing up without your selection. #3127
• States in Kanban and List layouts now follow their order as in Project Settings. #3130
• Toggling STARTTLS variables to Off now honors the choice. #3114
• Users can join projects again when they get an invite and viewers can now leave projects. #3112

📄 Write notes, docs, or a whole knowledge base with Pages | #2784

Pages are now armed to support all your writing needs.

🧏 @mention your team in issues and comments | #2358, #2544

Our upgraded editor experience now translates to two delights.

• For everyone using Plane, you can now @mention anyone in your team in issues and comments.
  

• Others @mentions show up in blue while yours show up in orange. #LittleBigDelights

• You can filter by mentions with names under Filters.

• For self-hosters, this works out of the box. No Tiptap libraries, no downloading extensions, no jumping through hoops.

  We took what you got with Tiptap and baked it into our editors. Thank you, Tiptap, for being open source.

#️⃣ Tables get a facelift | #2596

You can now color rows and columns differently, add rows and columns easily, and delete a table in one go.

📦  New Features

🏃🏻 Introducing Quick-add issues

Every layout on Plane now enables you to add issues swiftly with our new Quick-add feature. It's designed to simplify and expedite the issue creation process, letting you capture those wild ideas with ease.

The new issue addition extends to the end of every:

• Kanban group column
• List group item
• Gantt view issue sidebar
• Spreadsheet view last row
• Calendar block

(#2240, #2259, #2269, #2272, #2280, #2289)

🌐 The most requested: Global Issue View

We've added a new section to our sidebar - All Issues. This provides a global view across your entire workspace, enabling management of issues from all projects in one place.

What does it do?

• Handling 1000 issues in your workspace? This feature aggregates them all in one spot.
• Allows you to toggle between Assigned, Created, and Subscribed issues from all projects 😉.
• Enables you to apply filters based on specific project or issue properties.
• Allows you to create a global view and save the filters you need.

(#2005, #2273, #2283, #2284, #2288, #2295)

📕 Issue Drafts, never let your idea or issue go.

We've made some improvements to the Create Issue modal. These enhancements now equip the modal with the ability to save issue drafts.

Here's how the issue drafts work:

• Entered issue details and added properties, but accidentally clicked outside the modal? Don't worry; this will save the issue under drafts.
• Drafts can be accessed by hovering over the "Create Issue" button on the sidebar.
• Only the last issue entered in the "Create Issue" modal gets saved to the drafts. More history? Stay tuned!

(#2161, #2180, #2188, #2190, #2199, #2212, #2249, #2269, #2272, #2278)

🔁 Sub-issues nesting and editing

Parent issues now boast increased visibility over sub-issues, even when they are nested five levels deep.

• Sub-issues are displayed based on the hierarchy of their nesting. 🤯
• You can now directly edit sub-issue properties from within the parent issue.
• Prefer staying within the parent issue? No problem, all sub-issues of the parent issue now open in a peek-over mode.

(#2221, #2233, #2263)

🖇️ Introducing new relation properties— related, duplicate

We’ve introduced new relation properties to issues, making it easier for you to add detail to the issue. These function similar to how the blocks and blocked by properties work.

(#1995, #2171, #2192, #2189, #2194)
