I want to add a custom field that is a user picker. I like to have a Tester(s) field to tag required testers for issues but the option isn't there and tagging doesn't seem to work in a custom text field. Solution?
Hello,
Next-gen projects do not have a user picker.
But why? Workaround?
Next-gen projects was introduced to Jira not so long ago. That is why it does not have rich functionality yet. You could use classic projects, if you need a user picker field.
Gotcha. Thanks
Hi @Shavonn Brown
We have released the user-picker field type, you can now find the People field in Next-gens. Right now is it only multi user, but in a few days we will release more functionality where you can constrain it to a single user.

Does this mutli user picker in next gen behave like an assignee where it sends out notifications to ticket activity if there are comments
Hi @Jeffrey Bistrong,
Currently no, sorry if that is functionality you want. You can open a feature request ticket here.

@Nathan Sturgess @Jeffrey Bistrong @Alexey Matveev Hello, Is this feature available now ?I added a new custom field called tester of type people to my issue and I would like that the person who got mentioned in this field receives a notification whenever a change happens to the issue. I tried to create an automation rule but it didn't work.
What could be the solution ?Thank you in advance
