Move checklist section to the left permanently

[Amelie Saares]

I accidentally moved the checklist section to the right panel and if I can manually move it back to the left for each task, I would like to revert the change permanently and always have my checklist section displayed on the left. 

This article explains how to change the "by default", but I want to go back to the by default.

Thanks!

HI @Amelie Saares

Welcome to the Community!

The "Display Checklist on the right/left" setting is per user and not per issue. If you do not see the checklists under the description section after clicking on "Move Checklist to the left", this likely means that the issue does not yet have any checklist to display.

You may enable the "Show Checklist always" setting in our app's Global Settings (you'll find it under Apps menu from the top navigation bar -> Manage your Apps -> Global Settings under Checklist for Jira Free/Pro/Enterprise"). This way even issues with empty checklists will show the checklist interface.

I hope this helps. Let me know if you run into any trouble with this.

Cheers!

Hi @Amelie Saares 

Welcome to the community!

My name is Gracjan, and I'm a Customer Success Expert at HeroCoders, the team behind the Checklist app that you are referring to.

The option from the documentation you've linked is enough to permanently move the checklist to the left side(middle of the issue view).

It will change for all issues, this is personal option. You might need to refresh already opened tickets.

You might see a checklist in both the left and right side panels if you have enabled the Show checklist in the Jira mobile app global setting, as this is required for the mobile app.

Cheers!
