Collapsible Comments

[Tim]

Hey,

ive been wondering if its possible to collapse certian comments within an issue.

It seems like that this functionality is missing in Jira Cloud, but collapse comments worked in Jira Server.

Is there a way to get this functionality back?

Comment in Jira Cloud:

Comment in Jira Server:

Thanks,

Tim

Hi @Tim , Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

In the Internal issue view for logged-in users, there is a system setting that can configure auto collapse of comments, that is set to 4 by default, so after 4 comments the older comments are collapsed.

To change the setting to show all comments expanded by default:

1. Go to the Administration cog > System
2. Select Advanced Settings
   1. located in the upper right of the General Configuration page
3. Locate the property key
   1. jira.comment.collapsing.minimum.hidden
4. If you set its value to 0 it will stop the comment from collapsing by default.

If you find my answer helpful I'd appreciate if you'd accept it and/or vote for it. Thanks!
