You want more structure and clarity in your issues? Then the Redmine Issue Checklists Plugin is right for you.

Redmine Issue Checklists Plugin Features

Plugin Features Overview

You know the situation: an issue is created, but it's unclear which small tasks are actually involved. The Redmine Issue Checklists plugin brings structured checklists directly into your Redmine – seamlessly integrated, no extra effort required.

Each issue can have a checklist with any number of items. Authorized team members check off tasks directly in the issue, and a progress bar shows at a glance how far along an issue really is. Sections help break down larger task packages clearly. Whether for quality checklists, release processes or recurring workflows.

Your Benefits at a Glance

The plugin adds structured checklists to Redmine issues – with a progress bar, templates and an optional close guard:

Checklists directly in the issue

Add items, check them off and sort via drag & drop – all without leaving the issue view

Progress bar

See at a glance how many checklist items have already been completed

Reusable templates

Define checklists globally or per project and apply them automatically to new issues

Filter issues by checklist status

Filter issue queries by checklist status, show the progress as a column of its own and tick the next open item in the list

Task board and dashboard

Checklists appear on task board cards (with the Reporting plugin) and in a dashboard block listing all open items. Items can be ticked off there, without opening the issue

Close guard

Optional: issues can only be closed once all checklist items are checked off

Audit trail

Every change to a checklist is automatically recorded in the issue journal – fully traceable

Fine-grained permissions

Separate permissions for viewing, checking off, editing and managing templates

Especially valuable for teams that:

  • Handle issues with complex, multi-step tasks
  • Want to standardize quality or release checklists
  • Need transparency about the completion status of ongoing work
  • Map recurring processes directly in Redmine

Working together with other AlphaNodes plugins: the Automation plugin maintains checklists by rule, adding, replacing or removing items on save or on a schedule. The AI plugin evaluates checklists and suggests items when an issue is created.

This plugin is available to our Redmine Managed Application Hosting customers as part of the Planning Add-On (monthly bookable) or the Redmine Enterprise Support package.
