Custom field not appearing when creating a new issue

Hi, 

I have created a custom field using 'Message Custom Field (for edit)' type but for some reason it does not appear when creating a new issue:

 

My new custom field:

 

Screens:

 

Context:

 

unknown

I just had this issue yesterday.

So first the edit option only appears when you're editing a task. So if you want static text when a user is simply looking at the task, you'll need to use the view.

Next, you'll need to add a default value to the field. I'm using server, so mine was under configure. For cloud, I will assume then that it's under "details".
