I'm pretty happy with my Pixel smartphone, but I really loved being on the bleeding edge about 20 years ago with my Treos. I had two; the first was the one on the left, when the devices were still produced by Palm - no physical keyboard; there was a small area where you used a stylus with a very stylized alphabet to input.…

I had that top one!

@Abhinandan Shah we did what you don't want to do: created a separate field config for subtasks that has Account as optional, and separate subtask screens for create and edit. The create screen doesn't display the Account field (so a user doesn't select something on creation and then have it overwritten by the…

@Simon Snell JSM (new branding; Jira Service Management) does not include boards or the functionality to manage sprints. That's not what it's designed for; it's intended for triage-style support that's managed via queues as issues come in, not on a scheduled (sprint) basis. There are workarounds; you can create a Jira…

Oh, wow. Those are beautiful photos.

That looks like the perfect bit of beachy paradise!

Thanks, @Daniel Eads! Fingers crossed the vaccine will be available here and in Austin within a few months, so I'm wishin' and hopin' and prayin' that I'll be able to get there this summer. 

@Purujeet Parida Yes, a lot of Ireland reminded me of Rivendell!

Adare, Ireland.

My last "big" trip was to Ireland in July 2019 with my sister. A few of my favorite photos: Top left: Blarney Castle Top right: O'Brien's Tower at the Cliffs of Moher Bottom left: shore on Innish Oirr, Aran Islands Bottom right: Church Of Mary Immaculate Refuge of Sinners, Dublin My last not so big trip was to visit my…

Thanks, Theodora. I'm a little confused, though. Bitbucket Cloud IP addresses are already publicly accessible. How does whitelisting them make my on-prem server accessible to Cloud? The import tool runs from the Cloud side, so it seems like I'd need to make the on-prem server accesssible, not the other way around.

My friends and I agreed to not do gifts this year, but as for my family, the most interesting Hanukkah gift I received was a book - Portraits Unmasked: The Stories Behind the Faces. I love knowing the "why" of things, and usually end up with science/tech books, but this one gives the "why" behind famous paintings and is…

@[deleted] what's the first worst life form you've encountered? And what did pineapples do to you to deserve being ranked on that list? 😂

@Thomas Schlegel thanks so much for including me in this tradition! Happy Holidays to everyone!

@Ana Retamal I know this is old, but I'm asking here rather than creating a new post on the off chance that I'm missing something. I believe your response above only applies to access groups that already have a set permission to specific repos; changing the group's default access level will ask if you want to change it on…

Hi, Pablo! Welcome to the Community. I'm sorry you're running into this, but unfortunately it's a known bug. There is a ticket open in Atlassian's own Jira system; vote on it and watch it to receive updates.

Really, I have my parents to thank. They were both animal lovers, and growing up we always had multiple rescue dogs. @Mike Rathwell that's exactly why I always adopt older animals. Puppies and kittens are cute and get adopted quickly. But very few people want to bother with an animal that they may only have a year or two…

If a brand new project that isn't set to share config is still showing things like custom fields on the issue screens, it sounds like someone made changes to the default elements that Jira creates for out-of-box projects. Without seeing your instance, it's difficult to be certain, though. If that is the case, you'd…

>Does a partner count as a pet? * Do they constantly get underfoot? * Do they expect to be fed at certain times and get very cranky when it deviates? * Do they make a mess of your house? * Do they maintain eye contact while performing intimate personal grooming? * Do you love them anyway? If the answer to any of the above…

New projects by default are empty of data (meaning tickets.) To create a new project, go to Projects -> Create Project (alternately, go to View All Projects and the click the blue Create Project button at the top right.) On the Create Project screen, give it a name and a key. Leave the "Share settings" box unchecked. Then…

Is the filter shared properly? The filter needs to have the correct permissions on it, or users of the project the board lives in will not be able to see the board at all. If you're unfamiliar with how to set filter permissions, open the filter, then click Details. From there, click the Edit Permissions link. In the…

It may be possible with automation, but I believe the most common way is with workflow modifications. In the workflow for the parent issue type(s), go to the transition that you want to block. In my screenshot, I'm preventing the parent ticket from moving to In QA if there are any subtasks open; you'd use whichever…

I love seeing everyone's pets! I'm currently petless, but I'll share my departed but still beloved furbabies. This is Waldo, aka Waldimus Maximus. Then we have Basil Rathbone. And finally Bell, queen of resting bitchface 🤣 All three were elderly and rescued from high-kill shelters. I didn't have much time with any of them,…

Ooh, so pretty. And raspberry lemon cake sounds amazing. 

My parents lived in FL the last 15 years of their lives; I can confirm Publix bakery quality!

Thanks, all! I still feel like I got the better end of the deal with the cookies from @nina_schmidt ! I'm totally in for an international candy exchange! 

It is amazingly good. And really easy to make. It's more like what we'd consider a quick bread in the U.S. (like banana bread) rather than a true "cake", so I don't feel guilty having a slice for breakfast. My favorite variation is using oranges, and throwing in some candied orange rind for a bit of texture. So good. Now I…

The last time (and the first time!) I was in Scotland was back in the 90's. Hopefully I'll get back one day; it was indeed beautiful. If anyone does Instagram, my sister just shared the Hidden Scotland account with me. Lots of amazing, atmospheric landscape photos, and no annoying humans 😂.

@Liam Green yes, I definitely meant the American definition of jelly! I was lucky enough to visit Ireland last summer, and a friend from Dublin gave me an informal translation table of Irish English to American English. There was one particular phrase that I would have used a lot as a traveler, and while completely…
