I made the mistake of switching to the new jira interface.
this is missing basic functionality and has a lot of useless whitespace.
I need to go back to the old one.
Click on the little person icon in the lower left corner of jira.
and click personal settings.
Scroll down to the bottom to the Jira Labs section and turn off the new view.
It's a green check mark slider switch.
Hi Nicky,
You can do so from your profile link
ow this option in not available pls let me know how can i manage it
You can't go back any more.
pls guide me how can get back olde jira ui
THANK YOU!!!! I had turned it off before, but it seems like they wanted to have me have it on and it came back. I seriously hate the new view.
Yes!!! I can turn off the "New Jira issue view" on the Jira labs section of your personal setting.
Remember, you must keep talking about this in various places. Without mass 'outcry' about it, the atlassian product team shows all signs of taking away the ability to revert — out of some hubris that we are all 'too fussy' and 'need to give it up'.
Also, it's wrong that admins cannot give their teams the defaults that are preferred.
I had feedback bubble-up from multiple teams that 'people hated jira' and were asking we migrate to other tools. Think about the time lost: all of those people dissatisfied at work, and researching other tools to replace the crappy jira experience they were now having. Then taking the time to talk about it as a team and bubble-up the feedback. All because of this hubris from Jira Product team.
This is good news. The new interface is a big step back.
Brilliant, thanks.
My users keep asking me how to switch it back to the Original view. The new view is terrible.
The new Jira view is incredibly useless.
Where is the activity tab that used to be in old view? we don't need history tab that show nothing
Go to Settings, Personal Settings and Turn off Jira Labs.
The new UI is Horrible. I used to be such a huge advocate of JIRA, but this new UI is a major turn off for many in our project, to the point that we are looking into other PLM products to manage projects in.
Couldn't agree with you more @Zachary Jones , so pleased that for the moment there is the feature to turn off the new view. Makes you wonder who in the management structure decided it was a good idea to try to force people to the new view?
Surely if they are the experts they say they are in agile development they would have at least heard of canary releasing? Blue / Green testing? Community reviews?I will keep making noise about the new view in other forums to hopefully make sure the new view isn't the only choice.
please give me the old look back
That's it folks, in week's time we won't even be able to use the old UI anymore, and Atlassian doesn't care one bit.The new UI breaks backward compatibility with tables, which we used a lot, and support doesn't even respond.And the we get solicited for feedback, do they really care what we say?
Like many others here, who has used Jira almost from day 1, I feel abandoned.
Way to go Atlassian.
They've disabled the old view for now, which is a shame considering the new one is complete trainwreck even by Jira standards. Bored developers changing things for no reason to justify their existence again.
so no way to switch to old view ? new is terrible...
There is a workaround (of sorts). In the upper-right corner you can click the button with the three dots. One of the resulting options is to view the issue in the old view. Unfortunately it seems that this must be done on each individual issue. I have no idea if it works on anything other than the items themselves.
you may try pasting below at the end of the url
?oldIssueView=true
But now there is no way to permanently switch it back to the old view.
Too annyoing.
i hate new view. I want old view permanently.
This mandatory switch to the new "view" (really wonder what UI/UX-designer is responible for such a mess) is the worst move I personally have experienced with Atlassian. At least give the people a choice and do`nt traet them like idiots!!! For me this is a trigger to evaluate another system.
Same here. The new view is missing one key item. The Development widget from the bitbucket-jira integration.
This new view has made me add one additional step to working with ticket.
Is not new things supposed to make life easier.
As with others, I will push for an action to move away from Jira. I am sure we can find another product that is actually listing to customer feedback instead of trying to push new and "better" things without regard.
agreed
new view is terrible
Is there a way to see "Comments" and "History" at the same time?“Assignee” isn’t in the first place when we want to mention it in a comment!Is there any hope of keeping OLD VIEW forever [?oldIssueView=true]?
Thi works, but you have to do that every single time you open a ticket.
Which is actually very annoying.
Agreed. 😅 I really hate the new view. I wish if there is a way to permanently disable it!
I agree Bro
The new JIRA view is awful. Useless and not ergonomic for end user.I suggest you should change your UX team at all. And especially your PM of this change
Hi All,
the new view is very uncomfortable and tried to let down but no global setting for it so I used the third party tool to open each URL with oldIssueView param true.
I hope it will help you!.
Thanks a lot!I'll try today.
Thanks a lot, Narendra)Add comment if it will work for me.
In any case - thank you
Here's a tampermonkey script that does it for you, I fear that this will not last very long before Atlassian removes that query parameter, (typical Atlassian way of looking after customers).
// ==UserScript==// @name Jira, load old view// @version 0.1// @description Load Old jira view// @author Unhappy Atlassian Customer// @match https://*.atlassian.net/*// @icon data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==// @run-at document-start// @grant none// ==/UserScript==(function() {'use strict';var loc = location.href;if (loc.indexOf('oldIssueView') >= 0) return;loc.indexOf("?") < 0 ? (location.href = loc+"?oldIssueView=true") : (location.href = loc+"&oldIssueView=true");})();
Is this working for you? I've tried it, but for somereason it's not working for me
Thanks, Narendra!
This is working as expected.
~Cheers
Arun
I see why it wouldn't work for you, I didn't use wildcard to match the jira instance, so it was only matching our own instance.I updated the code above to include a wildcard, however if your jira URI is different than the above, just update the `@match` line for your domain.
Works perfectly! Thanks a lot!
atlassian.net says "We're currently transitioning everyone to the new issue view, so you're no longer able to switch back to the old issue view."
It has been dictated. Users seem to have no choice to use a view that works better for them now.
Everytime when I'm viewing a ticket, I have to click the "3 dots" actions icon (right-hand corner) and select the "see the old view" option to temporarily switch back to the old view.
I wish there is a setting to switch back permanently. sigh...
Please fire the person that made the new issues view concept, and re-enable permanent old-view option. The new view is no progress, it is terrible!
And now... "old" view is gone completely. Just. Ugh. I've spent 2 years trying to like this new interface. If anything it's more cumbersome and SLOWER. UGH. Atlassian, you've killed the love I've had for your product.
