Issue Type jumps back to default/top value after selection during create subtask

Kristīne Graudiņa February 13, 2025

Hello,

Need help with an issue I'm facing with a plugin my project developed, by a developer who's no longer around.

Screenshot 2025-02-13 101907.png

Summary: We have a plugin that allows for each Issue Type to be assigned to a project and specific user groups within said project, as configured by the plugin.

This seems to work fine when creating a subtask from an issue. But when trying to create an issue from Search -> Issues, when you try to select an Issue Type from the dropdown, it'll reload the dialog box and jump back to the default selection.

If you disable the plugin, Jira by default reloads the dialog box (to fetch the correct screen, I presume) and retains the selection.

And I cannot for the life of me figure out why this happens.

Maybe helps, but through Inspect I'm also observing this the following -

With plugin:

Issue Type with ID 8 being the Issue Type I'm attempting to select, while Issue Type with ID 157 is the default Issue Type.

Note: I do permit it's also not default Issue Type, but topmost one in list. I'm new.

@Kristīne Graudiņa sounds like a javascript issue.  Have you looked into the what is happening on the page, recorded a har file to see what is going on between the one working and the one that is not?
