How to turn off BigGantt and BigPicture JIRA comments when Gantt task is moved?

Dastin_Kuwałek__SoftwarePlant_

Users of BigPicture and BigGantt often ask us about the audit comments generated by the plugins. For example:

We are trying BigGantt and we have one question since we do not see this option in configuration. Is there a way to disable ticket comments when a task is moved?

We do not need this because we are constantly moving tasks, and our tickets are filling with a lot of comments like "Moving task ... via BigGantt Plugin for JIRA"

Hi Dastin,

I believe BigGantt comment feature is to keep track of all tasks moved so far, just like history for an issue.

If it is disabled will it be possible to track those changes somewhere or not?

Hi Dastin,

Do you have any prepared scriptrunner or other scripts that can be used to remove the comments that have been made prior to turning off the comments?

Thank you.

Hi Dastin,

Current BigPicture Gantt settings look totally different today, very few settings are available compared to before. Maybe because of Jira Cloud and next-gen projects, any clue about how to do it now?

This is how Gantt settings view looks like on my side:
