Announcement banner per project

Katya Godneva

Announcement banner is a great tool, but I wonder if I can set it per project, not for the whole instance?

Thanks in advance for ideas.

Hi @Katya Godneva (

you can use html, css and javascript in the banner.

 

This means you could get the current URL where the banner is displayed in javascript via

<span>def currentURL = window</span><span>.</span><span>location</span><span>.</span><span>href </span>

(Source: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1034621/get-the-current-url-with-javascript)

Because the jira URLS are pretty regular you could parse this Url for the Project Key (Example URL<base url>/projects/PROJECT_KEY/issues/?filter=allopenissues) where you want to display some specific banner.

parsed_key = extractKey(currentURL)

Then you create a javascript function which gives other content based on the

display_banner(PROJECT_KEY)

and define the banner you want to show in the display_banner function.

 

I don't have the time (or inclination) to flesh this out or define the mentioned functions but I hope this idea gets you started.

With kind regards
Mario
