How to show priority names in Jira issues list macro?

Question

Hi,

what key must i enter in the Jira Issues List macro in confluence to show up the priority name instead of the icon?

I tried priority.name but this was a silly guess, i guess.

Editing Confluence JAR Files

The vm file that needs to be updated is templates\extra\jira\staticJiraIssues.vm in "confluence-jira-plugin-5.6.12.jar".

The lines I deleted:

#elseif( $col.equals('priority') && $item.getChild('priority').getValue())
<img src="$!xmlXformer.findIconUrl($item.getChild($col.key))" alt="$generalUtil.htmlEncode($!item.getChild($col.key).getValue())" class="icon" />

* Shutdown Confluence
* Create WEB-INF\classes	emplates\extra\jira 
* Copy updated staticJiraIssues.vm file to WEB-INF\classes	emplates\extra\jira 
* Start Confluence

Hello Martin,

You might be able to accomplish that by customizing the JIRA Issues Macro look for the .vm files, and uploading the resulting .jar to Confluence plugins folder - you can use this KB as aid.
