Project specific User Text Widget

[mbagnall]

Hi,

Thanks for writing and making this plugin available.

Not an issue as such but would it be possible to make the user text widget project specific rather than global please?

Thanks,
Martin

It would be possible, but there's not really a point:

• https://jira.sonarsource.com/browse/SONAR-7916
• https://jira.sonarsource.com/browse/SONAR-7917
• https://jira.sonarsource.com/browse/SONAR-7933

Thanks for the response. Apologies for the delay in following up. I have taken a look at those tickets and the underlying ticket that they link to - https://jira.sonarsource.com/browse/MMF-399.

However, I wasn't able to find the context for the change from any of the Jira tickets - why are Project Dashboards being dropped and are they being replaced with something else?

[ganncamp]

They've essentially already been replaced by the Project front page. Since it's introduction project dashboards have been shunted to the side, and as we focus the platform on code quality (rather than it's previous "aggregation" mission) the justification for user-configurable dashboards becomes increasingly murky. So they're being dropped.

Thanks for the explanation, Ann, much appreciated.

I'll be interested to see how these changes work in the forthcoming releases, it seems that it will impact a number of 3rd party plugins that I use.
