More than two workflow buttons in Jira 7.1.0 (ops.bar.group.size.opsbar-transition)

[Kenny Pyatt]

I'd like to see 5 workflow buttons (instead of the default two) on the issue screen.

I've attempted to create a jira-config.properties and set the ops.bar.group.size.opsbar-transition = 5.  No joy.

I'm using Windows Server 2012 and JIRA 7.1.0.  The properties file I create is located in c:\program files\atlassian\application data\JIRA (although I've tried multiple locations).

I've restarted JIRA multiple times.  What am I missing?

Hi Kenny, the <JIRA home> directory is the correct location, but I think it might be transitions not transition , e.g.

ops.bar.group.size.opsbar-transitions = 5

Good catch.  I corrected it but it's still not picking up the change.

Hmm, just checking the obvious:

• Your file is called jira-config.properties?
• It's in the directory that's listed as "Location of JIRA Local Home" in your System Properties (<your JIRA server>/secure/admin/ViewSystemInfo.jspa)?
• The entry in the file is ops.bar.group.size.opsbar-transitions = 5 ?
• JIRA's been restarted after creating jira-config.properties and adding the above line?
• There are more than 3 permitted transitions out of the status of the ticket you're viewing? I.e. you don't have workflow conditions that are hiding transitions?
