redmine_smile_auto_user_activation

Redmine plugin that adds the hability to auto enable new users, the first time they are added in a project.

Not yet activated users will be available in Add Members to Project popup. A notice message is added when user(s) have been activated. Optionally a default group can be assigned to them. A debug option is available in the plugin settings to add traces in the Rails log file.

How it works

• Not yet activated users are now available in the Add Members popup :

• When validating the new users, a notice message is added for the users that have just been activated :

• The notice tells if the user was added to the default group, if it was configured in the plugins settings :
