How to link Jira issues by dependency type: FF, FS, SF, SS

Question

I have 2 Jira issues(as tasks), Pre-task and Post-task. Post-task can be started after Pre-task is finished, which may be expressed like this:

* Pre-task [FS] Post-task

In this case, how can I set the link type of these tasks,

Pre-task FS-depends on Post-task, or,

Post-task FS-depends on Pre-task ?

* My Jira version: JIRA v7.1.1

So they added them via an add-on, that's fine.

I'd suggest having a look at the docs for the gantt chart (but to add the links to an issue, try "add link" from the menu!)

My administrator said he had not added 'FS-depends on' link type by himself manually, instead 'Gantt Chart' plug-in seemed to do.

So, I may need to know the intention of the plug-in developer.

'FS-depends on' link types are installed with this plug-in:
