How can I hide/remove the cancel/reopen transition buttons from a particular status?

Question

Hello Everyone, I am new to the forum and was having some difficulty finding documentation on how to address this.

Is there a way to hide these buttons from users once the issue is in a particular status? The idea behind this is so that users don't have the ability to re-open or cancel an issue once the issue has been resolved or cancelled.

Thanks in advance for the help

You can easily do this without plugins. On the transition you do not want them to be able to see simply put a condition on it (it can be they have to be in a certain group etc) then they will not even see the button.

I ended up using an add-on called Scriptrunner and created a simple scripted condition in the desired transition, and that was able to hide the cancel button from the user.

Thanks, I will look into the plugin. I was trying to figure it out under the status properties by experimenting different property keys that would allow me to hide them, but have only been successful at removing the Edit/View screen and preventing users from writting comments.
