@robin I can take this one as it is very urgent for me.

That would be my plan:

• A checkbox in the general project setting whether to enable issue tracking for the project
  • Default: enabled
• If disabled:
  • Hide the "Issues" menu item in the project view
  • Hide the project in the new issue project select drop-down

Are there any other places?

This is all of the place I can think of right now.

@robin I started working on this.

I have a question: How can I make the checkbox appear in the project settings.

In my opinion the actual setting should be stored in ProjectIssueSetting. It looks like the form fields are generated based on annotations inside the model and the properties list here.

Can I just add a new field to the form? Or should I set the issue settings by delegating methods in Project?

I think putting the setting directly into project class is appropriate. As ProjectIssueSetting contains all issue specific settings after when it is enabled.

Also make sure that:

1. Disable project issue setting tab
2. Turn off issue by default for forked project (even if issue of source project is turned on)

@robin could you please set the milestone for this issue?
Then there will be a clean changelog.
