How to prevent auto linking in JIRA markup?

Borek Bernard

I want to write an example URL in a JIRA issue description, like

... use the site {{http://localhost/test}} ...

but this gets rendered as a clickable link (even though it is wrapped in the inline code markup). How to get rid of the auto-linking?

Not pretty nice but you can wrap it in a {noformat}http://www.....{noformat} macro

It will then look like

www.google.com

The noformat macro isn't inline so I cannot use it. (It will create a block element around the URL.) Another solution? Is there like an inline noformat macro? Didn't find anything..

Mmmh. The only thing I can come up with is {http://www.google.com}. Mask it in some form...

Well, did work on my local instance of JIRA :-)

Make the text field use the text renderer in a field configuration scheme

Borek Bernard

I need the behavior in the description field. So I'm looking for a syntax trick to achieve that, not a chance in configuration.

Did you ever find a semi-solution for this?

Our issue is similar. We need to disable the key auto-linking (JIRA-123) in our release management lists where our release package filenames match the JIRA ticket IDs for trace-ability.

Our workarounds are:

Set the renderer to 'Simple text', and live with the renderer still adding links to the filename.
Enable 'wiki syntax' rendering, and have the issue auto-fill the status (bad). Further with 'wiki syntax', we tried using noformat and code brackets, but we are forced into a narrow vertical scrollbar, and users can not see the entire list at a glance (and have missed important contents sometimes!!)

I wonder if they will ever create a simple text renderer?

In case anyone gets here through a search - you can prevent a link from being active by using the HTML unicode entity for a colon: :

So the enter this:

http://localhost/

and see

http://localhost/

(Hopefully this answer will be rendered correctly 🤞)

I use { and } so the Link is not set but the brackets are shown.
