Jira Priority label change by project

Question

I am using the default Jira name for the "Priority" field. See attached image.

I know how to change the name in the admin console, but it applies it globally. Is there a way to change the label name by project?

Example:

Global Name (currently):

P0 - Blocker

P1 - Critical

Desired:

Project 1:

P0 - Blocker

P1 - Critical

Project 2:

P0 - Immediately

P1 - Next Sprint

The reason for this, we have users of Jira who are not tech savvy and it helps them understand how to assign a priority to something. As they dont understand the difference between Blocker and Critical by example.

@[deleted], I figured out one way to do it. See images attached.

* I created a new Project "Test Project"
* I added new "Issue Types" (P0: Mission Critical & P1: This Sprint)
* I created a new "Issue Theme" called "Project X"
* I then associated the "Types" to the "Theme" and it all worked. 
* The only thing that I can't figure out, if it's even possible, is to remove the new "Issue Types" from the Global Scheme

@[deleted], I looked at your reply. I am on the Cloud version and the way this following article reads, it appears that this is a feature not supported in the Cloud instance.

Hi @AJ,

You can implement this using the priority schemes. Please refer to the article below.
