Redmine Custom Dashboard – real-time project health.
For project managers and IT directors who need live project health without building a manual report first.
Project status requires a meeting to produce. Or a report nobody reads.
Redmine’s default views are built around individual issues, not project health. Seeing the state of five projects simultaneously means navigating five project pages – then opening individual issue lists to assess status. IT directors and delivery heads end up compiling manual summaries before every stakeholder review. The information exists inside Redmine; it just takes an hour of navigation to surface it.
The report is the view.
Every widget reads directly from Redmine. Refresh the dashboard — or turn on auto-refresh — and status changes, new issues, and time entries are reflected without any preparation step. The dashboard is current every time anyone opens or refreshes it.
Every user with project access can open the Dashboard tab, arrange widgets by drag-and-drop, resize them, and save the layout. Drill down from any supported chart segment to see the exact issues behind it. Share the dashboard with anyone outside Redmine — generate a token-based public URL that opens in read-only mode, no account required. Manual status reporting stops being a job the team performs every week.
What is the Redmineflux Custom Dashboard Plugin?
Redmineflux Custom Dashboard adds a fully customisable, real-time analytics dashboard to every Redmine project. Project managers, IT directors, and delivery heads configure charts from over 20 chart types — issue distribution, time tracking, user activity, project progress, saved queries — that pull live data from Redmine without building manual reports or exporting to a separate tool.
Project health, visible without a status meeting.
Pick a shift to see what changes in the product. They play on their own – hover to pause.
Project health visible without asking for an update.
Every dashboard widget pulls live Redmine data – no manual trigger, no export, no preparation. When a stakeholder opens the dashboard before a review meeting, the data is already current. Status meetings shift from gathering information to making decisions based on it.
Drill into any chart to see the issues behind it.
Click any bar, segment, or data point on a supported chart and an issue list panel opens showing the exact issues behind that number. The drill-down respects the active date range and chart filters — moving from summary to specifics takes one click, not a manual filter session.
Reporting overhead cut from every planning cycle.
Status preparation for weekly reviews, client updates, and leadership briefings is replaced by pointing people to a dashboard URL. The time previously spent building and distributing manual reports becomes time the team keeps for delivery work instead.
Share a live dashboard with people outside Redmine.
Generate a token-based public URL from the Share button. Anyone with the link sees the dashboard in read-only mode — no Redmine account, no login. The public view auto-refreshes, preserves per-chart custom dates, and hides all edit controls. Revoke access at any time by regenerating the token.
Stakeholder updates without granting Redmine access.
Set the dashboard to auto-refresh every 30 seconds, 1, 2, 5, or 10 minutes — both in the standard view and in the public read-only view shared via token. Open any dashboard or individual chart in full-screen mode for presentation or display-panel use without distraction from other UI elements.
One dashboard for the data leadership needs to see together.
Issue progress, time tracking, and project health all render from the same Redmine data foundation — no cross-system reconciliation, no manual imports. One dashboard, all the delivery data in a single view.
The specifics, for people who want them.
