Hi! I'd like to add more fields to the Component page (currently there's only the "Component", "Description", "Component Lead", "Default Assignee" and "Issues").

Is that possible? And if it is, how?

Thanks,

This is a default JIRA view. I am afraid that you cannot directly modify it unless you write a plugin that modify/extend this view. But not sure if this is good approach to modify things here. It depends what you would like to add there. There is always Issue Navigator that might give you something that you need (and where you can add/remove columns)

Thanks Mirek! For instance, I wanted to add Acceptance Criteria for the component, the status of the component, a better "Description" field (rich text as the US).

And you can't filter, so it makes it a little bit difficult to work with them.

You would not usually add acceptance criteria for a component - they're supposed to be parts of an overall project, not items that you complete, and the idea of a component having a status is nonsense.  You should be doing both of those in issues.

Description makes sense, but most people define components as clear obvious things within their project and don't need a description.
