Customizing Text for JIRA issue

AbrahamA

Hi All

I am using JIRA (v5.0.2#725-sha1:5735107)

I am looking at https://developer.atlassian.com/display/JIRADEV/Customizing+Text and wanted to customize text for my JIRA issue.

Chage "Create a Issue" to "Create Incident" etc

Documentation says language jar files are found under atlassian-jira/WEB-INF/lib but there are no language jars available there.

There are some language jars underC:\Program Files\Atlassian\Application Data\JIRA\plugins\.osgi-plugins\transformed-plugins found this jar jira-languages-5.0.2-en_US_1333084634000.jar

There is no jira-lang-default.jar

Extracted jar and did not find text to change as shown in documentation.

Is there some other documentation or is this outdated?

Please let me know.

Try changing in atlassian-jira/WEB-INF/classes/com/atlassian/jira/web/action/JiraWebActionSupport.properties file.

Thanks Jobin

I changed all places in the properties file where it said "Create Issue" and it did change the text on link in the dashboard. However when I click on the link the popup which comes still shows "Create Issue".

Any idea where to change for this text?

That's probably coming from some java script or a bundled plugin!

Hi Jobin,

I also wanted to change the text Issue to Ticket. I am using Jira 5.1.3.

I have changed jiraWebActionSupport.properties file from jira-languages-5.1.3-en_UK.jar at location jira-home/plugins/.bundledPlugins & as well as file at the location atlas-jira/WEB-INF/com/atlasssian/jira/web/action/ JiraWebActionSupport.properties.

But still the text in jira has not changed. I am not getting proper documentation as per Jira 4.2.

Can you please help me? How can I change the particular text in Jira 5.1.3?

Thanks & Regards,

Renu

No point in modifying the bundled plugin under .bundledPlugins folder because JIRA will overwrite it during restart.

You need to modify it under WEB-INF/classes/atlassian-bundled-plugins.zip/jira-languages-5.1.3-en_UK.jar

And then restart JIRA. See if it helps!

Hi Jobin,

I wanted to change Issue to Ticket inside Activity Stream Gadget. Because,in the activity stream gadget I am getting message as user linked 2 issues. I wanted to change the issues to tickets.

I find inside JiraWebActionSupport.properties, But there is no activity stream gadgets to change this. As well as I have changed description for the System Plugins. The name of the Plugins & modules have changed but not the description.

How can I change this. Can you please help me for this?

Thanks & Regards,

Renu
