nav[aria-label="Primary Navigation"] { padding: 0; & ul { list-style: none; width: 100%; display: flex; flex-direction: row; justify-content: start; align-items: start; gap: 30px; padding: 0; & li { margin: 0; } & ul li { list-style: none; } } }

How do I add more workflow transition buttons to my issue view?

LuziaL

We have noticed that if there are 3 workflow transitions available for a issue the first 2 transitions are available as buttons at the top of the issue and the third transition is available under the 'Workflow' Drop Down menu.

We would prefer to have 3 workflow transitions as buttons at the top of an issue. If there are more than 3 transitions, the first 3 can be shown as buttons and the rest of the transitions can be shown in the Workflow dropdown menu.

Modify the ops.bar.group.size.opsbar-transitions property in jira-application.properties and change the value to 3.

In JIRA Studio, unfortunately is not possible to do it as it would be made in a standalone version - By editing jira-application.properties uncommentting the property ops.bar.group.size.opsbar-transitions and changing its value.

In Studio it's not possible to modify any underlying file. As can be seen in this known issue - https://studio.atlassian.com/browse/JST-844 - after any upgrade made in Studio the values set on jira-application.properties will be undone.

Also, something you might run into is wanting to re-order the transitions. This can be done by applying {{opsbar-sequence}} properties to the transitions in the workflow designer.

Be aware that in JIRA 4.4, we will be retiring jira-application.properties and replacing it with a jira-config.properties in your JIRA home directory PLUS we are moving more option editing to inside the web application itself.

Pre JIRA 4.4 you edit jira-application.properties

Post JIRA 4.4 you edit either jira-config.properties in your home directory or online inside the administration section.

The reason we have moved to a jira-config properties file in your jira home directory is so that you can more easily upgrade in the future. The changes you have made are out fo the "code" directories and into the more manageable jira home area.

Note : I know this doesnt answer the question but it will in the future.

That would be awesome!

It would be awesome if it worked, but it doesn't in JIRA 4.4.3: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRA-26284

Grrrr. Atlassian, please don't change these things without testing!!

Well, I just installed Jira 4.4.4. There is no jira-config.properties file in my jira-home, and there is no information about how to change this (e.g. functionality) under Administration (ref.: http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRA044/Configuring+Workflow#ConfiguringWorkflow-ChangingtheNumberofTransitionButtons).

Another example of regular Atlassian miss between product roadmap > implementation and documentation (communication).

This no longer works in Jira 5.1.4

Jobin Kuruvilla [Adaptavist]

You need to use jira-config properties as Brad suggested.

Topher dailing

yes, i had to create a jira-config.properties file under the main c:\program files\atlassian\JIRA\ directory, but it is there now. i rebooted the server, and there are still only two workflow transition buttons.

contents of the file is just 1 line:

ops.bar.group.size.opsbar-transitions = 3
