Filed under: news, releases | Tags: iphone agenda, iphone calendar synch, teamwork chinese
Leave a Comment This new Teamwork release includes the Chinese translation of the entire interface, we want to thanks Mr. Chenfan for his great work ( we hope that the blog’s title is correct 
) .
This release includes also an improvement in the public task page. We added a new check box that enables showing also custom fields contextually with the “add proposal” functionality. Thanks to this, your customers could send you not only a simple issue with a description but also some additional data from fields that you defined. On issues you can add up to six custom fields.
A requested feature was to display also event hours in the results of the search events page, and its done.
The release includes also some bugfixes:
- bug fix in the project summary web part.
- bug fix in the generated iCal file from the Teamwork agenda

Teamwork 4.4.0 available: public pages for tasks

Teamwork 4.4.0 is released: download it here.
We often get requests from customers and evaluators to give access to some Teamwork data to someone who does not log in Teamwork; data like status, progress and open issues on a project . Before this release, to do this you had two options:
1. set the customer as an assignee and give them access to Teamwork with limited rights (which from a Project Management perspective is formally the right choice), or
2. you exported the project data in say a PDF and sent it to the customer
Both choices have their disadvantages: the first one, that you are giving access to a system of which the customer does not know anything about, and the second one is that you have to do the procedure by hand.
Hence in this release (4.4.0) we added a third option:
3. public project pages: for any project / task, a public page can be enabled which will be exposed at Teamwork’s address, will not require login, and will present selected information. It is a way to automate distribution of information always updated from Teamwork to people that do not access it.
The pages will be available at URL of the form
[http://your teamwork address]/project/[task id]
When enabling such pages, there are several options available; most are self explanatory, like “show issues” or “show costs”, but these two need some clarification:
- “enable add proposal”: if you enable this option, visitors to the page will be able to propose issues / features on such task: the proposal will be saved as an open, unassigned issue on the task.
- “ask key to access the page”: access to the page will be protected by a key which you define and will be requested on access.
In the picture above an example resulting page.
Another nice feature is the introduction of custom types on issues (six fields like in tasks) and the refinement of those on tasks, that now support dimensioning. Full details are in the user guide, section 5.8.
Other new features
• added custom prefix for Teamwork notification by e-mail
• issue list export in Excel now exports also estimated duration, so you can esteem the load of any group of issues

• nicer browser history

• check on issue editor remove tab notes as button submit

Teamwork release 4.3.13250
This new release includes some useful new features, the translation in Slovenian, and some bug fixes.
Many of these fixes and features come from Teamwork users who, through our feedback services (answers and new ideas), always help us improving the software, making Teamwork more usable and “comfortable”.

Collect errors with BugsVoice:
From this new release Teamwork’s errors are going to be collected using the BugsVoice online service.

Give it a try to trap your errors!
Features:
1. Possibility to notify a user by email once his/her account has been created.

Teamwork 4.3 multi-Gantt view.
A free upgrade release for all users of version 4.0-4.2, this release includes some major extensions of functionality; while there is no “revolution”, this kind of release makes your “Teamwork life” more comfortable. Several features requests from the feedback service have been fulfilled. Also the user guide has been updated.
Download this release here.
Multi-Gantt support
This was motivated by this request: “Manage graphical Gantt-type overview of all projects”. We then realized that all it needed was the filtering power of projects search together with a Gantt style visualization. So this is what we’ve done: we added an additioanl visualization of the search results. So for example you can see all your root open project closing in 2 weeks in a Gantt style view.
Also all the Gantt scales have been extended to 5 years.
Import from CSV – Bugzilla
Import of issues and resources from CSV files: issues get imported from the Bugzilla CSV export format, but of course in this way you can import from anything.
Collapsible project trees
Projects trees can be collapsed and there are options to keep them open by default etc. . This was this request; thanks to Halil for the first implementation.
More Twitter integrations
Twitter integration with any action and there is a new portlet for filtering tweets on any topic: see the user guide, section 8.3.3.
Little improvements
- All notifications have in the subject the task they refer to, if it exists (this request).
- Display log on descendants (this request).
- Balloons have no more the confusing Roman number.
- Use darker gray on Gantt duration background – better prints.
- Search analysis worklog: make the field “action” larger.
- In resource list there is no more the bothering default filter by company.
- Snapshot of a task can be edited.
- Search analysis worklog: make the column “action” larger.
- Issue multi editor: if there is a task on the issue and you have an assignment on it, let the watch icon appear even if the issue is not assigned to you.
- Experimental: supporting SSL over LDAP (LDAPS)
Bug fixes
- Issues didn’t get indexed any more for full text search.
- Order in company news doesn’t work.
- Portlet news doesn’t show news ordered by order factor.
- Resource hourly cost sometimes gets set to zero.
- Meeting: drag&drop multi editor doesn’t work for the just inserted.
- The link to resource drawn by the smart combo if the resource is from another area on which you have no right you see the link but you get an error.
- Search of a string containing ” in issues looped the application.
- Sometimes the rollover menu opened in the wrong direction.
- If you change the allowed file storage roots, disable links to old locations.
Technical notes for upgrade
This release build is 11250; it contains no database schema changes for all users of 4.2.10080 and following. As it contains an issue full-text indexing fix, you should reindex your data: see 17.4 of the user guide.
