You need to talk to the other people who have admin access to your Jira. One of them is renaming the issue type. 

YES. You can get the data you want. It helps if you STOP SHOUTING and tell us what you actually want. And STOP SHOUTING

You will need to click the new UI option. Cloud updates happen regularly, but it can be up to seven weeks before "katest" applies to everyohel

If you won't let me have a TARDIS (ideally, one as advanced as the Master's, rather than a clapped out type 40), then the next thing on the list is a berth on the "Grey Area", and in third place, living with any GSV.

There is a "time loggin" panel in the issue view that shows you all the time logged. It has a tick-box for swapping between "this issue" and "this issue and its sub-tasks". The panel only appears if the task or sub-tasks have time data on them. My Jira (8.4) does the below. I've got a story with no time-tracking at all,…

One minor quirk - if you have no sub-task types in your issue type scheme, this option ( and create sub-task) will vanish because you can't use issue types that are not set up for the project.

See https://confluence.atlassian.com/jirakb/change-the-java-version-used-by-jira-server-765594330.html Be aware that you must stick with a version of Java that supports your current version of the software.

Yes, post-functions are the place to do it. You can do it per-project, if you're using different workflows in the projects. You have to be an admin to make these changes, so you'll need to get admin access, or get your admins to make the changes for you.

Yes, still true, as the issue type is fundamental and allows for different configurations, it has to be "moved".

https://library.adaptavist.com/entity/update-the-value-of-a-custom-field-using-a-listener does most of what you need. You'll need to remove the "is this a subtask" check, and reverse the intent so that it updates the parent

https://library.adaptavist.com/entity/set-available-options-to-a-multi-select-list might be a good starting point.

With text fields, it is possible to put data in them that looks empty. You can test for this case by looking at the full issue view - is the field name displayed in the issue view? If it is, then there is an invisible character in the field, so it is not really empty. If the field name is not visible in view, then it is…

No, there is no way to do this in the software. Confluence works on a single base url. Even if you have redirects or go for the hideous complexity of rewrites, you will still end up going back to the base url. The way to make this work is to give Confluence the base url on "URL B" and then tell your people inside the…

Matt was trying to say that Apps are the same thing as Add-ons and Plugins. Atlassian have changed the name of Plugins to Add-ons and then, more recently, Apps, although "apps" is intended to be a bit more wide-ranging - some apps for Server/DC are not plugins, and most for Cloud aren't either - they're not installed on…

I moved it to "removed", but I didn't want to. I's a damn good question with a good answer. I don't want to remove it because the conversation might help others. But it is yours and you don't want it to be public. If I have got it right (please, check, and tell us), it's all private again.

Yes. I accept that. I know that I am not a good writer. I know that I write stuff that comes across as abrasive, aggressive or (and) arrogant. I stand by "multiple assignees does not work". But you are absolutely right that the way I said it is arrogant. "Small minded" is a different matter though. I have imagined things…

Um, not quite, Kanban clearly has a "done" column that you move issues to when they are done. I'm not sure what you're reading, but everything I can find on Kanban marks something "done" by moving it into the "done" column (I've not done a lot of training on Kanban though, I could well be missing something, but given that…

I'm afraid not, it goes to the issue you just created, or back to where it was before if the popup create box was triggered.

You should not be able to miss it - your bitbucket should never get that far without an error saying "properties file missing property x"

It's <bitbucket-data-directory>/shared/bitbucket.properties

The Cloud version of Portfolio is essentially Portfolio 3, but the UI is very different on Cloud and Server - most of the difference is driven by the underlying Jira Cloud UI.

Community leaders can move them to another topic (we have an "off topic" category for stuff that really isn't Atlassian based, but we don't want to completely kill because it's an innocent mistake rather than spam or offensive). There's a special topic of "removed posts" which we would use for stuff you want deleted - only…

You don't need to upgrade to implement this - the "create issues and comments from email" function has barely changed since version 2 (I don't remember seeing it in version 1, but I know 2 had at least one mail handler that could create issues from email) For upgrading, start with a look at…

Yes, you set the security level like any other select list. It is not a simple select list though, it has some extra functions on top of being a list of levels. You can only set a level if * You have the project permission to set the security * You are included in the level you are trying to set (In other words, you can't…

The way in the GUI goes through all the checks and migrations that are necessary when you want to move an issue. There is a way to do it in code, but you still have to do all the checks that the GUI does before it actually moves the issue to a new type (if you don't, an admin could make a minor change to your project and…

You can already do this with the existing "statusCategory" field. But the three values of it are hard-coded as "To do", "In progress" and "Done". This field is searchable and determines the display colour of the status.

Could you give us the errors or warnings you are getting? (Unless it's just a blank screen). If the errors are browser errors, have you tried a different browser?

You do not get system administration rights on Cloud, it is reserved for Atlassian support.

Yep, but that's the way it's going!

The excerpt macro only handles one excerpt per page. In older versions, it used to just fail if you put two or more excerpts into a page, but now it just reads down to the last one on a page. If you want many excerpts from one page, you have to add an app to do multiple excerpts (I'm only aware of one, which is called…
