Managing unsupported plugins by blocking issue creation

Managing unsupported plugins by blocking issue creation

Overview

If you're utilizing plugins that aren't supported by HelpDesk+, you may need to restrict certain issue types from being created through HelpDesk+. This feature enables you to make the most of our solution while accommodating unsupported plugins.

This feature doesn't entirely prevent these request types. Instead it stops you from creating new issues of these types. You can still set up agent channels for these issue types.
