New features:

  • Custom fields now have a “New values must be unique” option.

  • Custom fields now support value canonicalization (for example,
    automatically changing input values to be all uppercase). See the
    @CustomFieldValuesCanonicalizers config option.

  • Ticket timers provide a comment box for quickly adding ticket comments
    to describe your time worked.

  • You can now set up default values for assets on a catalog level.

  • You can choose to display result counts on ticket search portlets using
    the new $ShowSearchResultCount config setting.

  • There is now a “Load all history” link for the “as you scroll” history
    loading mode, to allow you to use browser-based text search.

  • We now display a list of recently-viewed tickets in the
    Search → Tickets → Recently Viewed menu.

  • We have made RT::Extension::AdminConditionsAndActions part of core
    RT, so you can now easily configure the conditions and actions of
    your scrips right within the admin UI.
