+Each event entry provides a hyperlink to the event, the author of the change, as well as a brief excerpt of the actual comment or text, if available. Plugins may provide additional events for the timeline.
 
-It is possible to filter the displayed events with the various filters in the option panel:
- * ''View changes from'' — the date from which to start displaying events (current date if empty). Events that occurred after this date will not be shown, only those that occurred before that date.
+The displayed events can be filtered using the filters in the preferences panel:
+ * ''View changes from'' — the date from which to start displaying events (current date if empty). Events that occurred after this date will not be shown, only those that occurred before the date.
  * ''and X days back'' — how many days backwards in time to get events.
- * ''done by'' — the author of an event. It accepts a space-separated list of authors for which events should be included. Alternatively, if the author names are prefixed by a "-" character, then the events having those authors will be excluded, and all the others included. Single or double quotes can be used for specifying author names containing space characters. ''(since 0.12)''
- * ''Changesets in all repositories'' — if you have more than one repository connected to your Trac project, then you can filter the output so events from specific repositories are not shown. ''(since 0.12)''
- * ''Milestones reached'' — display or hide milestones reached.
- * ''Opened and closed tickets'' — display or hide ticket open or close events.
