How to Add a Header Row for Subtask List in Issue Detail View in 7.0+

Kathleen Jacobs

I found lots of answers for older Jira versions, like this:

https://confluence.atlassian.com/jira064/how-to-activate-header-row-for-subtask-list-in-issue-detail-view-720415904.html

But can't figure out how to handle this with Jira 7.0+

I did find a hack like this:

https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-questions/Is-it-possible-to-display-a-header-for-Sub-Task-columns-on-the/qaq-p/251883

but I have multiple projects with different columns.

There's no way to dynamically figure out which fields are present and modify the view with Javascript. The field names aren't part of the HTML of the panel, so you can't just 'expose' them somehow. Your only option is to either modify the sourcecode of the template that shows Sub-Tasks or replace it with a custom plug-in.
