| 32 | | == Alternate Download Formats == |
| 33 | | Aside from the default HTML view, reports can also be exported in a number of alternate formats. |
| | 32 | == Changing Report Numbering == |
| | 33 | There may be instances where you need to change the ID of the report, perhaps to organize the reports better. At present this requires changes to the trac database. The ''report'' table has the following schema ''(since 0.10)'': |
| | 34 | * id integer PRIMARY KEY |
| | 35 | * author text |
| | 36 | * title text |
| | 37 | * query text |
| | 38 | * description text |
| | 39 | Changing the ID changes the shown order and number in the ''Available Reports'' list and the report's perma-link. This is done by running something like: |
| | 40 | {{{ |
| | 41 | update report set id=5 where id=3; |
| | 42 | }}} |
| | 43 | Keep in mind that the integrity has to be maintained (i.e., ID has to be unique, and you don't want to exceed the max, since that's managed by SQLite someplace). |
| | 44 | |
| | 45 | You may also need to update or remove the report number stored in the report or query. |
| | 46 | |
| | 47 | == Navigating Tickets == |
| | 48 | Clicking on one of the report results will take you to that ticket. You can navigate through the results by clicking the ''Next Ticket'' or ''Previous Ticket'' links just below the main menu bar, or click the ''Back to Report'' link to return to the report page. |
| | 49 | |
| | 50 | You can safely edit any of the tickets and continue to navigate through the results using the ''!Next/Previous/Back to Report'' links after saving your results, but when you return to the report, there will be no hint about what has changed, as would happen if you were navigating a list of tickets obtained from a query (see TracQuery#NavigatingTickets).

| | 142 | * $USER — Username of logged in user. |
| 146 | | * '''ticket''' -- Ticket ID number. Becomes a hyperlink to that ticket. |
| 147 | | * '''created, modified, date, time''' -- Format cell as a date and/or time. |
| 148 | | |
| 149 | | * '''description''' -- Ticket description field, parsed through the wiki engine. |
| | 164 | * '''ticket''' — Ticket ID number. Becomes a hyperlink to that ticket. |
| | 165 | * '''id''' — same as '''ticket''' above when '''realm''' is not set |
| | 166 | * '''realm''' — together with '''id''', can be used to create links to other resources than tickets (e.g. a realm of ''wiki'' and an ''id'' to a page name will create a link to that wiki page) |
| | 167 | * '''created, modified, date, time''' — Format cell as a date and/or time. |
| | 168 | * '''description''' — Ticket description field, parsed through the wiki engine. |
| 160 | | * '''_''''''_group_''''''_''' -- Group results based on values in this column. Each group will have its own header and table. |
| 161 | | * '''_''''''_color_''''''_''' -- Should be a numeric value ranging from 1 to 5 to select a pre-defined row color. Typically used to color rows by issue priority. |
| 162 | | * '''_''''''_style_''''''_''' -- A custom CSS style expression to use for the current row. |
| 163 | | |
| 164 | | '''Example:''' ''List active tickets, grouped by milestone, colored by priority'' |
| | 183 | * '''`__group__`''' — Group results based on values in this column. Each group will have its own header and table. |
| | 184 | * '''`__grouplink__`''' — Make the header of each group a link to the specified URL. The URL is taken from the first row of each group. |
| | 185 | * '''`__color__`''' — Should be a numeric value ranging from 1 to 5 to select a pre-defined row color. Typically used to color rows by issue priority. |

| 211 | | If you have added custom fields to your tickets (experimental feature in v0.8, see TracTicketsCustomFields), you can write a SQL query to cover them. You'll need to make a join on the ticket_custom table, but this isn't especially easy. |

| 213 | | If you have tickets in the database ''before'' you declare the extra fields in trac.ini, there will be no associated data in the ticket_custom table. To get around this, use SQL's "LEFT OUTER JOIN" clauses. See TracIniReportCustomFieldSample for some examples. |
