Hi Konrad, you cannot delete this link and I'm pretty sure the email has nothing to do with the permlink. Do you watch this issue ? Or is your notification scheme configured, so that you get an email, if there are changes to this issue ? Best regards

Agree with you, Jamie. There are more and more plugins one should buy to get functionality that Atlassian should provide. By the way, Atlassian is increasing the license fee for Jira very much. Shouldn't something like JQL Tricks be included as a basic functionality ? Atlassian People, maybe you could think about it ;-)

you're welcome :-)

Hi Lars, if you create a Rapid Board, you only have to select the project(s) this rapid board is based on. You can create a rapid board based on other selections. Then you have to create and save a filter first. This is described here: https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/GH/Creating+a+Rapid+Board If you want to have a…

Hi Lars, a rapid board is based on a saved filter, you can have as many rapid boards as you like. Look here: https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/GH/Using+the+Rapid+Board Best regards Thomas

Hi Rumi, we are using such links. There are some limitations to this. Of course, every user must have the same drive letters. Another limitation is, that these links are only working with Internet Explorer. Cheers Thomas

A custom field can also be a drop down list box with preconfigured entries

Hi Renjith, so we go round in circles, back to the original question :-) Developers need the project admin role to create subversions of a main version... Best regards Thomas

hmm, ok., another aproach: create one main-version per sprint and per product. With GreenHopper the developers can create subversions of this main-version as much as they like. If the sprint comes to its end, you can combine all the fixed issues from the sub-releases to the main sprint-version and release this main…

How much Jira projects do you have ? Are there different releases for one product per sprint ? I hope not. ;-) If you have 20 products, you should have 20 Jira projects (at least). Every product has its own releases and sprints. I think that's the only solution for your problem.

no, this does not make sense, in my opinion. There should be someone, who is planning, managing and controlling the releases. In our company, the developers make their private builds, of course, but not everyone of them is building an official release. The changes are consilidated and only one release build is done.

Hi, for adding new versions you need the project administration role. For adding gadgets to the directory, you must be Jira administrator. Best regards Thomas

Hi Josch, there is a Copy Page Tree-Plugin for that: https://plugins.atlassian.com/22929Best regards Thomas

Hi Carsten, this was already discussed here: https://answers.atlassian.com/questions/49971/how-do-i-disable-jira-autowatch-by-default here: https://answers.atlassian.com/questions/54126/can-jira-s-autowatch-be-disabled here: https://answers.atlassian.com/questions/50454/how-to-set-autowatch-globally-off Cheers Thomas

Hi Peter, we are seting the resolution when the development is done. All of our testers know that the issues are not "open" in Jira anymore. They have their own filter on their dashboards to find the issues they have to test. They have their own workflow status for that. If the test is ok, the issue is going back to…

Hi Ed, you can create a filter with JQL, for example "labels = faults". Save this filter and use it in your gadgets to see only the issues related to this label. I hope, this is working in 4.0.2. It is working in 4.3.4 ;-)

Hi, have a look at the Customware scaffolding plugin: https://plugins.atlassian.com/plugins/net.customware.confluence.plugin.scaffolding Unfortunately, it is not (yet ?) available for confluence 4. Best regards Thomas

Hi, maybe you (or an administrator) can search the folder where the attachments are stored (usually jira-home/data/attachments) and give you a list of all the attachments of type pdf. The attachments are stored in a folder named by the issue key to which they belong. Hope you don't find too many pdf-files in your data…

Hi Mark, have you tried optimizing or repairing the rank field ? Sometimes we had a problem with the order of tasks and their subtasks. After optimizing the rank field, everything was fine again. Best regards Thomas

Hi Mohammad, we use issue security scheme for projects where not all people should be able to look at some issues. These issues are kind of "top secret' or "more secret" than the other issues in this project and only a dedicated group of people is allowed to see them. A scenario is e.g. when you have more than one service…

Hi Anna, from Confluence documentation (https://confluence.atlassian.com/conf59/move-and-reorder-pages-792498724.html): To move a page, you need the following permissions: * 'Add' permission on the page you're moving, and * 'View' permission on the page's parent page. If you're moving the page to a different parent, you…

Hi Janiv, do you know this report: http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRA/Created+vs+Resolved+Issues+Report Maybe this helps. Best regards Thomas

Hi Lipka, you can't add another SMTP-Server. There's an open issue for that: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRA-1739

Hi Matthew, have a look at https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/DOC/Viewing+Attachment+Details Maybe you can find your attachment in the attachment list Cheers Thomas

Hi Matthew, search after special keywords from the pdf. PDFs are indexed also. If the word is special enough, you should find it. Cheers Thomas

Hi Martin, I think you have to do it manually: * Copy the whole page * remove the first parts of the copied page * rename the copied page Best regards Thomas

The base URL is set in the System Administration of Jira: JIRA Administration -> System -> General Configuration The Base URL should be the main JIRA URL, the main access URL to your Jira.

Nothing. these are the steps to activate a workflow. Do you see your workflow in the workflow scheme ? Is your workflow scheme activated ?

Hi Kerim, - create a workflow scheme - add your workflow to the workflow scheme - add the workflow scheme to a project For detailed information look here: https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRA/Activating+Workflow Cheers Thomas

Hi, The first thing, you should carefully read is the GreenHopper guide: https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/GH/GreenHopper+101 the user's guide: https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/GH/GreenHopper+User%27s+Guide and maybe the administrator's guide:…
