Quick Add Buttons now nested under a new button called "Add Content"

David Walsh

Since 23/07/2024, when viewing any issues, the Quick Add buttons such as "Attach" and "Link Issue" are gone and replace with a + button called "Add Content" which has the options in a nested menu.

We need to reverse this functionality.

Was this a change on the Jira Cloud end or is there somewhere in the Project settings I can look at to investigate. I have been through all the fields,screens, workfloes and have not found anything related to the Quick-Add buttons.

Thanks

Update: Atlassian have admitted responsibility as an experiment. I have asked them to exclude my site.

@David Walsh ,

This sounds like a change from Atlassian side, however I'm not seeing it myself in my test environment. Can you share a screenshot?

@Hans Polder ,

Yes, you have what we had yesterday. Here are some screenshots.

I should add...My test environment (using Jira cloud, last updated a year ago), has not changed.

@David Walsh , I just replied to another post from someone having the same issue. Hopefully it's a bug, I would recommend you raising a support ticket to Atlassian to get their attention on this.

This is a horrible user experience. Now instead of clicking 1 button, we have to click 2 times and there's a bunch of white space.

Atlassian should not be making mass changes that we can't reverse. I don't want the new Add Content button. How do I switch it back?

Is there a way to revert this change?

David Walsh

Reach out to Atlassian and ask them to revert it.

Horrible solution , no space is saved , just adding one click + focusing on clicking write button from list

Was it excluded ?

What I dislike most is that the button doesn't say "More..." or even "Add ..." but it's FLASHING PURPLE?!?!?! It's a Button, not a Menu - we have the Hamburger icon for exactly this purpose.

I don't want to ADD something to my page, so why do I have to endure this Night club experience. There was no Accessibility or hover telling me that it's safe to click without moving or adding something i don't want. It's the most annoying type of uninformative Saturday Night Live skit waiting to happen ever.

They can't revert it anymore, they pushed it out to everyone without a control mechanism.

We would like to request for a way to reverse the functionality as well.

From what I can tell, Jira has doubled down and forced the update to everyone despite the backlash.

Honestly, if Jira just reverted their codebase to where it was 5 or 6 years ago and re-released that, the entire product would be a whole lot better. I can't believe how bad their decisions have been lately. And they've shut off the ability to directly create feedback as well... I wonder why. Too scared to hear from the customers because they know it's bad.

Corey Hampton

Absolutely agree. Why did the roll out the change to everyone when they had so many customers complain about the experience. We have a HUGE white space with nothing there now. What a waste of space and bad user experience by adding additional clicks.

Corey Hampton

Agreed!
