  - Versions of Trac prior to 0.9 did not have the ''type'' field, but instead provided a ''severity'' field and different default values for the ''priority'' field. This change was done to simplify the ticket model by removing the somewhat blurry distinction between ''priority'' and ''severity''. However, the old model is still available if you prefer it: just add/modify the default values of the ''priority'' and ''severity'', and optionally hide the ''type'' field by removing all the possible values through [wiki:TracAdmin trac-admin].
 
- - The [trac:TicketTypes type], [trac:TicketComponent component], version, priority and severity fields can be managed with [wiki:TracAdmin trac-admin] or with the [trac:WebAdmin WebAdmin] plugin.

 Then, annotations like changes and comments to the ticket are logged as a part of the ticket itself. When viewing a ticket, the history of changes will appear below the main ticket area.
 
-Comment editing (available since 0.12) is meant to be used to make small corrections to comments, like fixing formatting, forgotten WikiFormatting or spelling errors, not major edits. For longer edits, you should be adding a new comment instead. Editing a comment will not produce a new entry on [/timeline], while entering a new comment or other changes will do.

 '''Notes:'''
- - If you need more flexibility and aren't afraid of a little plugin coding of your own, see the [https://trac-hacks.org/wiki/FlexibleAssignToPlugin FlexibleAssignTo plugin].
+ - If you need more flexibility, then use subclass `ConfigurableTicketWorkflow` and override the `get_allowed_owners` method (see [trac:#12807 Trac ticket 12807]).
  
  - Activating this option may cause some performance degradation. Read more about this in the [trac:TracPerformance#Configuration Trac performance] page.

+To set the ticket owner the workflow action may also need to be selected. For the [TracWorkflow#TicketCreateAction default workflow], the //create and assign// action can be selected with `action=create_and_assign` and the owner specified by assigning `action_create_and_assign_reassign_owner`. Alternatively, you could avoid needing to select the action by using the [TracWorkflow#BasicTicketWorkflowCustomization default attribute] to make //create and assign// the default action.

+For other custom workflow actions, determine the variable names by inspecting the `name` attribute of the //action// radio button and the //owner// input or select element.

+== Deleting Tickets

+Ticket delete and ticket change delete functions are enabled through an optional component. To enable the functionality edit the [TracIni#components-section "[components]"] section of TracIni:
+{{{#!ini

+tracopt.ticket.deleter.* = enabled
+}}}
+
+The //Delete// buttons appears next to the //Reply// buttons in the ticket description and ticket change areas. `TICKET_ADMIN` permission is required for deleting tickets and ticket changes.
