Not able to add tab in the Issue Card layout

José Carlos De Oliveira Escalona

I am trying to add a tab (as the one on the screenshot) to the Issue Card screen layout

In order to configure the screen, I need to access the Issue Configuration inside project settings.

It turns out, the Issue settings is not available when the Project, type Software, uses Kanban or Scrum Templates

This is only available using Bug Tracking Template

There is not information whatsoever, about not being able to configure Card's screen depending on the project template

Anyway to overcome this?

I want to add tabs to some projects I already got using Scrum or Kanban templates

Thanks!

Hi @José Carlos De Oliveira Escalona 

This isn't an issue between Bug, Scrum, or Kanban templates (which just provide different configurations) - you have two different Project types here, Team-managed (top screenshot), and Company-managed (bottom screenshot).

Team-managed Projects cannot have tabs at this time as far as I know - you could create a feature request for it though here if you would like to: https://jira.atlassian.com/secure/Dashboard.jspa

Company-managed Projects can though - you can add a tab via the Screen settings. You'll need to be a Jira Admin to modify these settings - then:

1. Go to Settings (cog icon in top-right corner) > Issues
2. Select Screens from the left-hand menu
3. Locate the Screen relevant to your Project
4. Add a Tab using the hyperlink on this page

For more information on what you can do to customise a screen, see this help page for Team-managed Projects, and this help page for Company-managed

Let us know if you need any further help!
