What it is

One page answering "what am I meant to be doing?" — open assignments, what you reported, what is due soon, how your workload spreads across projects, and how much time you have logged. Widgets are chosen and arranged by each person, and everything on it respects the same visibility rules as the rest of the workspace, so a dashboard never shows an issue its owner could not otherwise open.

On your own Redmine

Requirements

  • Redmine 6.0 or newer (Rails 7.2, Ruby 3.1 or newer)
  • PostgreSQL 14+, or MySQL 8.0+ / MariaDB 10.6+
  • No additional gems

Install

cd /path/to/redmine
cp -r redminepro_mydashboard plugins/
RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rake redmine:plugins:migrate NAME=redminepro_mydashboard
# restart Redmine

Standalone behaviour

Identical. No plan gate applies, and the My Dashboard module hides its own checkbox from project settings whether or not anything else is installed — a personal dashboard is not a per-project feature.

Update and remove

Copy the new directory over the old one, run the migrate command, restart. To remove:

RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rake redmine:plugins:migrate NAME=redminepro_mydashboard VERSION=0
rm -rf plugins/redminepro_mydashboard
# restart Redmine

Saved layouts go. No issue, comment or time entry is touched — every widget was only ever a view over data that lives elsewhere.
