Implement a more dynamic dropdown for projects

Hernan Mathias Farina Forster

Hi everyone, I currently work as a Jira developer and I had a question. I know that I can add/implement custom fields, one of them being the Move to project dropdown (customfield_ 15370). However, there is another dropdown in the Move Issue screen (called new Project, see second screenshot) which you can search more easily and also it shows the Recent Projects. But this dropdown is not a custom field but rather just a normal input.

My question is: Is there a way I could replace the first dropdown by the second dropdown?

And use the dropdown with the Recent Projects in both scenarios.

Thank you!

@Hernan Mathias Farina Forster Do you mean issue comments when you say "normal input"?

Hi @Akash Singh ,

As normal input I refer to the HTML tag ''input''.

This better dropdown is not listed in my custom field list that I can add. I can only add the ''Move to project'' dropdown (customfield_15370).

I would also mention that I use an outdated version of Jira (Jira Server).
