Deactivate subtask button

MORIN Nicolas

Hi,

Once a sub-task has been created on an issue, it appears in the display screen of the issue, with a '+' button that allows to create more subtasks.

 

Does anyone know if it's possible to deactivate this button ?

I need the users to go through an automated process in the menu, not this button that does not trigger the automation...

 

Thanks

Mirek

Hi @MORIN Nicolas 

Normally it should be possible to restrict who and when can create sub-tasks using properties, but from some reason this is not working 

https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRASERVER-26208

So as I described here - https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-Software-questions/Re-Issue-Links-names-are-being-truncated/qaq-p/2594676/comment-id/917360#M917360

there is always a way to hide the element using CSS

For your specific case the element is called stqc_show which is a link (a href) so code that you can put into your announcement banner would be something like this 

 

<style>
a#stqc_show {
display: none;
}
</style>

 

I hope it helps
