    2119A report consists of these basic parts:
    22  * '''ID''' -- Unique (sequential) identifier
    23  * '''Title'''  -- Descriptive title
    24  * '''Description'''  -- A brief description of the report, in WikiFormatting text.
    25  * '''Report Body''' -- List of results from report query, formatted according to the methods described below.
    26  * '''Footer''' -- Links to alternative download formats for this report.

     32There 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)'':
    3533 * id integer PRIMARY KEY
    3634 * author text

    4442Keep 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).

     44You may also need to update or remove the report number stored in the report or query.
     45
    4646== Navigating Tickets ==
    4747Clicking 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.
    4848
    49 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). ''(since 0.11)''

    142 === Special/Constant Variables ===
    143 There is one ''magic'' dynamic variable to allow practical reports, its value automatically set without having to change the URL.
    144 
    145  * $USER -- Username of logged in user.

     139There is one dynamic variable whose value is set automatically (the URL does not have to be changed) to allow practical reports.
     140
     141 * $USER — Username of logged in user.

    166162=== Automatically formatted columns ===
    167  * '''ticket''' -- Ticket ID number. Becomes a hyperlink to that ticket.
    168  * '''created, modified, date, time''' -- Format cell as a date and/or time.
    169 
    170  * '''description''' -- Ticket description field, parsed through the wiki engine.
     163 * '''ticket''' — Ticket ID number. Becomes a hyperlink to that ticket.
     164 * '''id''' — same as '''ticket''' above when '''realm''' is not set
     165 * '''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)
     166 * '''created, modified, date, time''' — Format cell as a date and/or time.
     167 * '''description''' — Ticket description field, parsed through the wiki engine.

     182 * '''`__group__`''' — Group results based on values in this column. Each group will have its own header and table.
     183 * '''`__grouplink__`''' — Make the header of each group a link to the specified URL. The URL is taken from the first row of each group.
     184 * '''`__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.

    210 === Changing layout of report rows ===
     213=== Changing layout of report rows === #column-syntax
    211214By default, all columns on each row are display on a single row in the HTML
    212215report, possibly formatted according to the descriptions above. However, it's
    213216also possible to create multi-line report entries.
    214217
    215  * '''`column_`''' -- ''Break row after this''. By appending an underscore ('_') to the column name, the remaining columns will be be continued on a second line.
    216 
    217  * '''`_column_`''' -- ''Full row''. By adding an underscore ('_') both at the beginning and the end of a column name, the data will be shown on a separate row.
    218 
    219  * '''`_column`'''  --  ''Hide data''. Prepending an underscore ('_') to a column name instructs Trac to hide the contents from the HTML output. This is useful for information to be visible only if downloaded in other formats (like CSV or RSS/XML).

     223   This can be used to hide any kind of column, even important ones required for identifying the resource, e.g. `id as _id` will hide the '''Id''' column but the link to the ticket will be present.

    242246If you have added custom fields to your tickets (a feature since 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.
    243247
    244 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.
