YouTrack Issue Tracker

If you have executed a search query but the list of matching issues doesn’t fit in a single page, don’t worry, you can select all of them in just one click.

What exactly do you have to do? Say you’ve searched for all your unresolved issues:

for me #unresolved

Found 1000 issues. Now, press Ctrl+A, or click “Select All” on the toolbar to select all issues on the current page. You will notice a message right above your issues: “Click to select all 1000 issues”.

Click the link specifying the number of issues to select. Now, you can modify all found issues with the Command window - for example, type command “won’t fix”, and have a couple of weeks vacation followed by a couple of months at an employment agency!

Be careful though, the changes you make can’t be reverted!

This feature is available in YouTrack EAP in build 67 or later!

We have revamped YouTrack login form to make it prettier and handier.

You can now log into YouTrack with an OpenID from one of five providers:

Ever attempted logging in from your smartphone? This is much easier now. Actually, it’s easier from anywhere: a single button click, and your Gmail (or Yahoo or whatever) credentials let you get in!

The new login form is available in YouTrack EAP starting from build 67.

Enjoy!

We have reopened YouTrack Early Access Program, and here’s the first post-beta EAP build:

• New features

Some important news today.

First, you can now follow us on twitter for quick development updates.

Second, YouTrack FAQ has been published in response to feedback that we have received this month. Particularly, it explains:

• How to create new users when they don’t create themselves.
• What’s wrong (or not) with YouTrack when you’re unable to assign an issue to yourself.
• How to simulate subtasks in YouTrack with issue linking.
• Whether it’s possible to visually distinguish between different types of issues.
• Whether YouTrack integrates with version control systems.

That’s not all FAQ is about: see if there are answers to questions you’ve been afraid to ask. If not, ask on, and we’ll answer!

As you’ve probably noticed, we’re reducing the amount of notifications by merging changes made by one user into a single e-mail containing only the resulting change. That enables fast tweaking of reported issue without bothering its assignee several times.

Moreover, if your e-mail client supports threading, notifications about the same issue can be merged into a single thread.

GMail conversations are supported too:

And that’s how it looks in Thunderbird:

Enjoy!

We’ve got a double dose of breaking news for you today.

First, some of you may have noticed that we had changed logo at our own tracker. This is not without a reason: due to copyright restrictions, we can’t keep the Charisma code name as a long-standing name of the product. Therefore, we’re introducing a new name for JetBrains issue tracker: YouTrack. Yes, it’s official, and effective today.

Second, after two years of development and 2.5 months of EAP, we feel we’re ready for a serious milestone. With that in mind, YouTrack goes beta today! Of course, as a full-rate beta product, it gets its very own section at the JetBrains web site. You can download the beta version here — as before, choose between jar and war formats.

If everything goes fine, we should be ready for YouTrack 1.0 release before New Year, but we still need your feedback to go firmly ahead:

• If you have found a bug or two, please report into our own YouTrack instance.
• If you’re ready to share your experience with Charisma/YouTrack in a less formal manner, please leave your feedback at the web site.

Thank you for staying with us, and don’t you leave without downloading!
