Dear osimons:

I have a problem that need your help. Because of my work,I need to use a custom field which is in wiki format in the ticket. but there are only five defaut custom field without wikitext.

This plugin does not support anything not supported by Trac itself. And, wiki formatting of fields is as of yet not part of a released Trac.

However, such support has recently been added in trunk, see ​trac:ticket:1791, and will be part of 0.12. I'll update the plugin to support setting the format when that release approaches. It likely won't be anytime soon, and it certainly won't be working for your 0.10 version.

Leaving the ticket open as a reminder to add the feature in a future 0.12 branch.

(Note to self: Change 'Trac Release' to 0.12 when that becomes available in drop-down...)

This request is now an enhancement request to implement new feature available for future Trac 0.12.

Actually, with ​trac:changeset:7859 this feature has been backported, and will be part of upcoming Trac 0.11.3.

Moving to solve this for current 0.11 version of plugin instead.

BTW, I've verified that if you use .format = wiki by manual trac.ini edit, the setting will be kept even if you edit other parts of the field through the plugin webadmin - 'Gracefully ignored'.

(In [5252]) CustomFieldAdminPlugin: Support for new 'plain' and 'wiki' .format setting introduced by ​trac:changeset:7859 for upcoming Trac 0.11.3.

Closes #3940.
