How do I limit the Priority list for bugs?

Question

We have multiple priority levels that we use specific to bugs (Highest, High, Medium, Low, Lowest).  I just added Must, Should, Could, Won't to our drop down choices for priority.

For BUGS:  I only want to have the choices in the drop down for Highest, High, Medium, Low, Lowest

For all other issue types (Epic, Story, Task...) they can see all choices or I can limit those too -- its less of a big deal for these issue types.

I just don't want users getting confused when working with bugs and not knowing what priority to choose since this is a new feature we are implementing.

Anyone know how to do this?

Hello @Jennifer Baum

There is no feature natively available for limiting the values in the built-in Priority field based on the issue type.

You could create your own custom field for Priority, and then create Contexts that set different values per issue type and project.
