Custom theme and logo
Themes define a look and feel for OpenProject. Create your own theme to comply with your company's Corporate Identity and communicate it to stakeholders.
You can upload your own logo and choose colors for the header navigation, side menu, as well as links and buttons.
Your custom theme is automatically responsive: It is not only visible on desktop but also on mobile devices, such as tablets and smartphones.
Single Sign-On
With the single sign-on feature you can securely access OpenProject without being asked to enter username and password again.
OpenProject supports the main authentication provider such as CAS, SAML, OpenID Connect, and Kerberos.
Configure work package forms
In the work package forms, the attributes are combined into separate groups (e.g. Details, People, Estimates & Time). Depending on the use case the default groups and attributes may not always be the best fit. Use work package forms to customize the attributes shown for each type.
Freely add or change the attribute groups (headlines) for the work package forms and add custom fields.
Multi-select custom fields
With custom fields you can create your own custom attributes. In many cases you may want to assign more than one custom value to a work package.
Multi-select custom fields allow you to set and filter for multiple values at once (either for custom field type List or of type User).
On the work package which uses the custom field, simply assign one or multiple values to the work package. The multi-select option allows you to select several options at once.
Relations in the work package list
When planning a release or finalizing features it is often helpful to get an overview of the different relations and dependencies. Adding relation columns directly to the work package list gives you an overview of the relations for all displayed work packages.
The column will display a number of work packages that have a certain relation to the work package. By clicking on the number you can expand the list and see the work packages that have the specified type of relation with the work package.
You can either display the type of relation (e.g. blocked by, follows) or the type of work package that is related (e.g. Task, Milestone, Phase).
Attribute help texts
Attribute help texts allow you to specify descriptions for any work package attribute (including custom fields). Project members can display the description by simply clicking on the question mark shown next to the attribute.
Choose the fields which need additional explanation. Within the help texts you can specify exactly what is meant and what the user needs to do.
This is very helpful for complex projects with several specific work package forms and multiple custom fields. It reduces the time for onboarding and avoids wrong entries for work package fields.
