redmine adding subview to project page

Question

I have created plugin for redmine that displays issues with some additional info. Plugin works ok. Now i want this information to be shown on project page under issues summary. ive read this article http://www.redmine.org/boards/3/topics/33949

and rednder_on approach looks very promising. ive added new plugin with hook for view_projects_show_right code looks like this

# lib/release_history_hook.rb

class ReleaseHistoryHook < Redmine::Hook::ViewListener
render_on :view_projects_show_right, :partial => 'bottlenecks/view_issues'
end

bottlenecks plugin tree structure is like this

Ive tried to specify full path,path with extensions ...all the combinations. When i run redmine and access project page its always gives me 404 error. I clearly misunderstand something very basic. I just cant find more information on that subject. What am i doing wrong? Also render_on seems to be deprecated. What can i use instead?

Answer 1

it seems to me that you named your partial incorectly without prefix "_". You should place file _view_issues.html.erb to YOUR_PLUGIN/app/views/bottlenecks/
