Highlights
- Markdown Support – MantisBT now provides markdown support similar to other tools that developers use like GitHub, Bitbucket, and others. We are starting off with rolling this out as an experimental feature that is disabled by default. Users are encouraged to try it out and provide us with feedback. To enable Markdown go to Manage – Manage Plugins – MantisBT Formatting 2.1.0, click ON next to "Markdown Processing" and click "Update Configuration". See examples for supported markdown.
- Lots of Filtering Improvements – There has been major refactoring for the filtering code, lots of bug fixes, and addition of ability to edit saved filters, filter by last update timestamp, and others.
