The Redmineflux Redmine Gantt Chart Plugin replaces Redmine's static timeline view with a fully interactive planning tool. Drag to reschedule, link dependencies, and track milestones — without opening individual issues or leaving Redmine.
Redmine includes a basic Gantt view, but it is read-only — which creates real planning problems for project managers and delivery leads who need to adjust timelines as delivery evolves. Dragging or editing tasks directly on the chart is not possible. Dependency linking between tasks is absent, so cascade delays go undetected until they have already affected downstream work. Reschedules require opening and editing each issue individually, which makes timeline adjustments slow and error-prone. There is no critical path visibility for complex multi-task project timelines.
The Redmineflux Gantt Chart Plugin adds interactive timeline editing directly to Redmine. It lets project managers drag tasks to reschedule, link dependencies, create milestones, and see the full project timeline in a single view — all without leaving the Redmine environment or importing data to an external planning tool.
The Gantt Chart Plugin enhances Redmine without replacing it. Every task is draggable. Every dependency is visible with cascade logic. Every milestone is tracked with a dedicated marker on the timeline. Project managers who previously maintained a separate Gantt tool can consolidate timeline planning into Redmine — the same environment where issues are created, tracked, and closed. Redmine, upgraded for operational maturity.
Drag tasks on the chart to adjust dates. Duration changes update immediately across the timeline, and dependent tasks cascade automatically when upstream work shifts. Schedule management takes minutes rather than a full session of individual issue edits.
Link tasks to define finish-to-start and start-to-start relationships. When a linked upstream task moves, the dependency relationship makes the downstream impact immediately visible on the chart — before it becomes a missed deadline.
Create milestone markers for key delivery checkpoints — release dates, client review points, sign-off gates. Milestones appear on the chart alongside task bars, which keeps delivery targets visible throughout the project lifecycle.
Schedule changes made by one project manager are visible to every team member and stakeholder with access to the project. There is no lag between a planning decision and its reflection in the timeline view.
Critical path highlighting identifies the tasks that directly determine the project end date. When the schedule-sensitive path is visible, project managers can prioritise risk mitigation before delays accumulate.
Timeline data from the Gantt Chart Plugin shares the same issue base as the Agile Board Plugin, so sprint scope and milestone dates stay aligned without manual synchronisation. Actual hours from the Timesheet Plugin connect directly to the tasks on the Gantt chart, which allows schedule-vs-effort comparison in one environment. Team capacity from the Workload Plugin informs realistic timeline planning before dates are committed.

| Role | What they gain |
|---|---|
| Project Manager | Interactive timeline editing, dependency visibility, and milestone tracking in one view |
| Delivery Head | Full project timeline clarity and schedule drift detection before deadlines slip |
| IT Director | Governance over schedule, delivery risk, and resource commitment visibility |
| Engineering Lead | Realistic scheduling with dependency context and critical path awareness |
Can I export the Gantt chart to PDF or an image?
Yes. The Redmineflux Gantt Chart Plugin supports export to PDF and image formats. Configure the date range and task scope before exporting to produce clean timeline reports for clients, leadership, or internal planning reviews. The export layout is print-ready without requiring additional formatting.
Does the plugin support baseline comparisons?
Yes. Set a baseline from your original schedule and compare it against the current plan at any point during the project. Baseline comparison shows schedule drift visually on the chart, making it straightforward to identify which tasks have shifted and by how much since the project started.
Can multiple users edit the Gantt chart simultaneously?
Yes. Multiple project managers or team leads can work on the Gantt chart at the same time. Changes made by one user are reflected in real time for others viewing the same project. Conflict handling follows Redmine's standard issue locking behaviour for concurrent edits.
Which Redmine versions are supported?
The Redmineflux Gantt Chart Plugin is tested and maintained against the three most recent stable Redmine releases. Compatibility is verified with each plugin update. Check the plugin documentation for the confirmed supported version list before installing on your instance.
