Inline Editor - issue list with inline status dropdown active

Today in Redmine

Ten issues to update. Ten full-page loads to do it.

Small updates compound into significant time waste when every change requires a full form navigation cycle. Updating status or priority on ten issues means ten full-page loads – which adds up quickly during triage or sprint planning sessions. Sprint planning requires navigating into each issue to reassign or re-estimate, which stretches what should be a focused session into a prolonged administrative task.

In plain words

What is the Redmineflux Inline Editor Plugin?

The Redmineflux Inline Editor Plugin adds click-to-edit capability to any Redmine issue field – directly from the issue list or the issue detail page. Status, priority, assignee, due date, estimated time, and custom fields are all editable inline without navigating to the full edit form. Changes save immediately without a page reload.

Knowledge Base Release Note

The change happens in context, not in a separate form.

Triage sessions, sprint planning reviews, and daily standups move faster when the team is not waiting on page loads between every field update.

Ten-issue triage sessions that previously required ten navigation cycles complete from the list view in a fraction of the time. Sprint planning stays in the backlog view from start to finish.

What your team gains

Faster issue management, same governance.

Click any shift to see what changes in the product.

01

Triage and review without opening each issue.

Change status, assignee, and priority directly in the list view without a navigation step. A ten-issue triage session takes a fraction of the time it takes when every change requires a full-page load.

02

Sprint planning from the backlog view, start to finish.

Re-estimate and reassign issues directly from the backlog without navigating into each issue individually. Sprint preparation becomes a focused planning session rather than an administrative cycle.

03

Hover any row to reveal the inline edit control.

Move the cursor over any issue row in the list and a pencil icon appears. Click it to activate inline editing for that row — the change happens in place, with no page reload required.

04

Edit any field on the Show Issue page without a form reload.

Open any issue and click an editable field — status, priority, assignee, dates, percentage, or custom fields — to update it inline. No full-page form required.

05

Frequently asked

Questions before you install.

The questions teams ask before adopting Inline Editor. If yours isn’t here, check pricing or contact support.

Does inline editing bypass any Redmine permissions?

No. The Inline Editor Plugin respects all existing Redmine role and field-level permissions. A user can only edit a field inline if their role permits editing that field through the standard form. No permission rules are bypassed – inline editing is a UI improvement, not a security change.

Which fields can be edited inline?

Standard Redmine fields – including status, priority, assignee, due date, estimated time, and category – are all editable inline. Custom fields configured in your Redmine instance can also be enabled for inline editing. The available fields depend on your Redmine version and field configuration.

Which fields can be edited inline from the Show Issue page?

On the Show Issue page, you can edit status, priority, assignee, start date, end date, percentage done, and custom fields inline. Click any editable field to activate the editor and save without a page reload. On the issues list view, hover any row to reveal the edit icon — click it to edit the field inline without navigating away.

Which Redmine versions are supported?

The Redmineflux Inline Editor Plugin is compatible with all Redmine versions. Compatibility is tested and maintained with each plugin update.
