Add custom field to all existing and future projects

Question

Hello,

I've seen a number of examples of adding custom fields to issues. However, how do I go about adding a custom field to all projects that shows up on the main "All Projects" view?

I also need to add a web panel to every project so I can manage the value of this field per project but this, I assume, can be stuck in

webpanels.admin.summary.right-panels

Needless to say, only system and project administrators should be able to toggle this field's value.

Thanks!

Nope.  You'll need code to add the web-panel.

Thanks Nic. However am I right in understanding that I can still add a web panel that shows up against all projects (current and future) where the value of this field can be managed?

Projects do not have fields, so you'll need some code to do this.

If I need project fields, I tend to look first for the "profields" App to do the work for me.
