Hi, in the recent update I have noticed that STATUS button is moved to below the title or Summary. How to change the STATUS button back to right side...above the ticket details section.

 

Thanks!

Mahanth.

Hey @MahanthPrudhvi ,

Welcome to Atlassian Community!

We wanted to inform you that the Move Status has been relocated from its original position to under the Summary section as part of an experiment that our development team has recently rolled out across all customer instances

 

You can find more details about this change here:
https://community.atlassian.com/forums/Jira-articles/Easier-status-updates-for-work-items/ba-p/3068881

 

We understand that this change may feel unexpected or challenging to adjust to. At this time, it’s not possible to revert the status to its previous location. We truly appreciate your patience as you get used to this update.

 

If you have any feedback or concerns, please share them directly on the community post linked above, so our developers can see them firsthand.

 

Additionally, we’ve created a feature request to gather votes and attention from the team, which you can find here:
https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JSWCLOUD-27789

 

Thank you for your understanding and support.

Regards
Chitra Nagdeo

@Chitra Nagdeo are you for real?

This is not the sort of thing you should be 'experimenting' with!

This needs to be reverted back asap so that paying customers are not adversely impacted by such a misguided experiment

It took us a while to actually realise the button had moved - we thought Jira was broken. This is a bizarre change not an improvement.

Now the status disappears when scrolling down the ticket - it used to stay static when it was on the right hand side pane which made it easy to read comments and then change the ticket status based on latest comments. Now need to scroll all the way back up after reading comments to change the status.

Atlassian's changes to UX this year have been baffling. They really didn't need to waste the time and money on making a product less usable.

@Chitra Nagdeo This "experiment" is actually affecting negatively everyone globally. Can you please, revert this globally? In the future could you gather votes, before you make the changes?

Let me also add to the feedback that indeed this change was totally rash, thoughtless or ill-advised.
