Disabling Quick edit / inline edit

Mizan

Hi All ,

Is there a way I can disable the inline edit in JIRA 6.x ?

It is not possible to disable it from the configurations now .

Does anyone have a workaround for disabling inline edit throughout the JIRA instance .

People who are intrested in this feature can vote up this issue

Regards ,

Mizan

Script to disable quick edit for a particular field .Works when pasted under announcement banner /field description

<script type="text/javascript"> 
AJS.$(document).ready(function() {
setInterval(function() {
  AJS.$('#fixfor-val').removeAttr('class');
  AJS.$('#fixfor-val').children('.icon').remove();
  AJS.$('#fixfor-val').removeAttr( "title" )
}, 200);
 });
</script>

another way is, remove the fields from edit screen and add those fields to global tansition

Mizan

Yes this feature is removed .

is there a way I can disable the system plugin which is responsible for inline editing . The javascript solutions is for a single field and I need to disable this for all field throughout Jira

the plugin name is "Atlassian JIRA - Plugins - Quick Edit Plugin" but we don't have option to disable

This might help:

its a workaround rather than really disabling, but it helps to address this issue. Cheers

Mizan

Yes but for this i will need to modify all the workflows .

Mizan

Can you think of a js solution which can work for all fields or atleast for a specific field . We can add this js in the field description

try with this

AJS.$('#fixfor-val').removeClass("editable-field");

Hello Mizan and others! Mizan, you told us the way to disable in-line editing for particular field. However - I have no idea how to do it. You wrote

edit for a particular field

What does it mean? Should I enter to Field Configuration? Or where exactly in administration can I edit it?

After answering this question I might be able to understand a location of announcemnet banner/field description.

Thanks in advance for reply to everybody!

FYI, if you're still interested in a fairly complete (but still 'brute-force') custom JavaScript solution to disable inline-edit for selected projects and fields in JIRA 6.2 check this link:
