Congratulation, iiiiiit's Thursday! When I was a teenager, in the 80's, I really dove into the 80's style. I did the sweat headband, leg warmers (I seem to remember!), and the bright colors :) I had this baseball hat that was bright pink, yellow, light bright blue and the whole 9 yards. I need to find some pictures...So,…

It's Thursday! When I was little - well, smaller - I was fascinated with investigators, their gadgets, and technology, I guess. Probably because I was watching James Bond movies and reading spy books (The Hardy boys, The Three Investigators, Nancy Drew, ...). So I wanted to be an inventor. I guess, I wanted to be Q. So,…

Hi all. I used to be on Jira Server but now in the Cloud. There are a few features that are present on Server but lacking in the Cloud. These are them and why I... so crazy much: * Ability to filter the Automation log for certain types of results, like on DC and Server, instead of scrolling endlessly through the log to…

It's Thursday! My mom used to make ginger bread houses around Christmas. I remember how fun that was. All the frosting and candy. The house was put together with melted sugar. Also remember my mom or dad burning themselves... (an experience I have since had myself as an adult). Here is a picture of me with one of these…

It's Thursday! Here we are again, THURSDAY! :) I know not everyone is a fan of the TV series Stranger Things but I happen to be. Probably because it takes place in the 80's and I've just had a blast reliving that time. Seeing the old Pepsi cans and Dorritos bags - I guess mainly the logos.I think I like season 1 the best,…

Hi. Just wanted to circulate and make people aware of CVE-2022-26135 for in DC or those still on Server. This article states the affected versions and remedy. Best, KGM

Hi folks! I just got this request: please grant newbie John the same space permissions as longterm Jane has. In Jira, we can "View Jira project roles". Is there a similar feature in Confluence or what is best way to do this? Thanks, KGM

Happy Friday, admins! I am curious, how many Custom Fields do you currently have in your Jira cloud instance? For me, we are at 254 in an instance with 103,000 issues and 75 projects. I know that these metrics can be all kinds but I just wanted to hear from you, great admins, and gauge a little where I am at. Have a…

It's Thursday! Hope you've had a beautiful week! Today I want to hear what feature you miss the most from Data Center or Server, now that you are on the Cloud instance. I, for one, come from the Server version but for the last 3 years I've been on both Server and Cloud. Maybe I am just blind (please tell me if I am missing…

It's Thursday! Here it comes once again: Happy Thursday :) I had this new friend once that could play a pretty difficult song on the piano facing his back to the piano! (I can't remember what song it is anymore). He showed off his talent in a small talent show and it was way cool/crazy/awesome! What is your…

It's Thursday! Hee Haw, Jester is dead! Oh, sorry. I just saw "Top Gun" and then went to see "Maverik" shortly later so I am still all swept up in that :) Hee Haw, it's Thursday! is more like it...My first stereo was a cassette player / radio combo. Can't remember how old I was, maybe 10 or so. Little thing similar to this…

It's Thursday! Happy birthday to #TBT! I've been writing these #TBT posts for a year now and I just want to thank everyone who has participated on this journey with me :) It has been SO much fun getting to know you guys better and sharing all kinds of memories with you. I think my favorite #TBT post is probably "What was…

It's Thursday! Halló good folk. I think I will have to choose something from the...80's! Probably leg warmers - over my jeans :) No, I never EVER wore them as part of my workout outfit (don't think I really worked out back then). I also did have a "Sun-in" bleached yellow mullet at one point. I thought I totally rocked it…

Hope you are all having a great day. Jira Server/DC does not have a good way for non db admins to see which filters are used on which dashboards. Under Administration - System - Filters, we have a way to find all filters (both shared and private) and see some information about them. However, after a while a fairly much…

It's Thursday! Alright, maybe not totally TBT (but always totally 80's!) but totally draws on your past. Well, at least influenced by it. If I were famous, I'd like to be famous for me being a kind and generous person. Well, that is the politically correct answer - and a good one. I think I would also want to be famous for…

It's Thursday! Another Atlassian Team (formerly known as Atlassian Summit) is in the history book! It took place last week in Las Vegas, NV. I was blessed to be able to join in person in Vegas but the sessions were also streamed so most people should have been able to see them. Of course is hard to name just one session as…

It's Thursday! Hey all! In the light of this being Atlassian Team22 week, this week's TBT question is: What was the first ever Atlassian Summit/Team Conference you ever attended? For me, the answer is: And this can be either in person or online. What about you? Let’s make it a great Thursday! KGM

It's Thursday! I have an acquaintance whose name is Finnur. His home is sometimes called Finland :) And I know of some other people that have names that lend themselves nicely to the word "house" in Icelandic. Think I would call my country KrisCountryLand or KCL for short 🤣 If you could create your own country, what would…

It's Thursday! Happy St. Patrick's day everyone! For those interested in the history of this day, can click here. I grew up in Iceland so no St. Patrick's day there. Therefore I don't have any memories neither have I really participated in the celebrations. But this post is not about me :) What do you do to celebrate the…

It's Thursday! Alrightyeo! Today we are having a counseling session (well kind of, please keep it g-rated and not too personal). I must start off by admitting that I just cant think of one right now but I am curious to read about yours :) So, what is your recurring nightmare? Let’s make it a great Thursday! KGM

It's Thursday! Another week is almost over :) When it comes to candy/sweets, for me it is cherry. I think the reason is that in 1978, we spent Christmas in USA and I got this bag of hard candy. Half of it was cherry flavored and the other half grape. I just fell in love with the cherry taste! It was so crazy good. I guess…

It's Thursday! ´Tis the season. The time of the year for the holidays. In my home, we celebrated Christmas. When I was 8 years old, we travelled to southern California over Christmas. It was heaven for me. We stayed with a distant relative and they had a dog and a cat. Great weather. Foreign land. Pick up truck and boat.…

It's Thursday! Ok, okey, ok... I admit! Halloween is not celebrated in all countries so this question is not going to apply for all. In fact, it was not celebrated in Iceland when I was growing up so I disqualify for this question... But if you have a similar holiday where you grow up, do share with us. So, do you remember…

It's Thursday! Alrighteo, three weeks ago I did a post and asked you about some of the craziest things you've done. Well, I did get some feedback but not as much as I thought I would. Maybe some shy people out there... Then, as I was brushing my teeth this morning, I remembered for some odd reason two times that I did an…

It's Thursday! Well, there are so many apps for Atlassian products, about 4.000 I think, in the Marketplace that this might be a hard question. I´ll break "the rule" of my question and mention two :) ScriptRunner is an amazing tool and if I were a coder, I would probably pick that. I wrote a bit about my use cases last…

It's Thursday! New year with new opportunities. Opportunities to do something crazy (within reason of course). One can, obviously, do extend the comfort zone on any day of the year but beginning of the year is a great time since the year is fresh and all :) The picture below is taken 14th of March in 2014 in Iceland. I…

It's Thursday! Some people have amazing memory (or at least glimpses) and can remember things that happened when they were 2 or 3 years old! My earliest memory, that I can verify, is running away from the bully at pre-school. So I must have been 5 or younger at that time. I was in a pre-school ran by nuns and there was…

It's Thursday! Remember Y2K and all the fuzz and panic? I was in Iceland during that time. We had just finished college in America and moved home the summer of 1999. And, actually, we had just purchased our first home. Moved into it on December 27th of 1999. We went to a Christmas party at some family member and it was…

It's Thursday! In Iceland, the Christmas starts at 18:00 (6pm) when the church bells ring in Christmas. And at that time on the nation radio, the announcer would say: Gleðileg jól (merry Christmas) to all our fellow countrymen, both at sea as well as on the farm/villages. It is kind of a stable on the radio - that saying.…

It's Thursday! I want to thank you all for a great year in the Community! It has been a fun ride and I appreciate all your comments, likes, and associations. Thank you. In Iceland, people are free to purchase their own fireworks and they purchase A LOT. So being in Iceland over the new year's eve is spectacular.…
