Fix Zero-Width Spaces in Issue Templates

February 25, 2026

Fixed an issue where invisible zero-width space characters could appear in text fields when applying Issue Templates. These characters originated from the variable editor and could cause unexpected behavior. They are now automatically stripped during template processing.

New Issue Template Permissions

February 16, 2026

A comprehensive two-tier permission system for Issue Templates, giving administrators and template owners fine-grained control over who can browse, create, edit, delete, and apply templates.

Global Permissions can be configured in the Templating.app admin settings:

• Browse Templates - Control who can view available issue templates
• Create Templates - Control who can create new issue templates
• Delete Templates - Control who can delete issue templates
• Apply Templates - Control who can use templates to create issues

Permissions can be assigned to individual users and groups. When a permission is not configured, it remains open to all users (non-restrictive by default).

Tip

There’s also an option to allow template owners to delete their own templates, even if they don’t have the general delete permission.

Template-Level Restrictions allow template owners to set restrictions on individual templates:

• Browse - Restrict who can see a specific template
• Edit - Restrict who can modify a specific template
• Apply - Restrict who can use a specific template

Both global permissions and template-level restrictions apply together. A user must pass both checks to perform an action.

For full details, see the Permissions documentation.
