Remove Share with Everyone Option on Filters

[Gena Cotter]

Is it possible to remove the share with everyone option on Filters in JIRA V4.2.1?

I have tried editing the edit-share-types.jsp and select-share-types.jsp files but it does not seem to work.

You should modify the edit-share-types.jsp under /template/aui.

Modify lines from 22- 26 as:

<select id="share_type_selector">
<ww:iterator value=".">
<ww:if test="./shareTypeLabel != 'Everyone'">
<option value="<ww:property value="./shareType"/>"><ww:property value="./shareTypeLabel"/></option>
</ww:if>
</ww:iterator>
</select>

Hi Jobin, Can you let me know the exact file path to this? I cannot seem to find folder aui? I had edited this file under at /atlassian-jira/template/standard/ Thanks, Gena

Thanks Jobin, worked perfect!

Thanks for the idea! We (hopefully) improved the implementation on Jira 6.1 by checking the id and not the translated value, by removing the Add Everyone button, and by selecting project as default (instead of group):

<select class="select medium-field" id="share_type_selector">  
    <ww:iterator value=".">  
        <ww:if test="./shareType != 'global'">  
            <option  
                value="<ww:property value="./shareType"/>"  
                <ww:if test="./shareType == 'project'">selected</ww:if>  
            ><ww:property value="./shareTypeLabel"/></option>  
        </ww:if>  
    </ww:iterator>  
</select>  
<ww:iterator value="." status="'typeStatus'">  
    <span id="share_<ww:property value="./shareType"/>" <ww:if test="@typeStatus/first == false">style="display:none"</ww:if>>  
        <ww:property value="./shareTypeEditor" escape="false"/>  
        <ww:if test="./addButtonNeeded == true">  
            <ww:if test="./shareType != 'global'">  
                <span class="addShare" id="share_add_<ww:property value="./shareType"/>"><span class="icon jira-icon-add"></span> <ww:text name="'common.sharing.add.share'"/></span>  
            </ww:if>  
        </ww:if>  
    </span>  
</ww:iterator>

The following thread (back to the forum) has a workaround for this issue: http://forums.atlassian.com/thread.jspa?messageID=257359151&#257359151

Thanks Jo-Anne, Unfortunately,I had tried this before and it does not seem to work with V4.2.1. I edited the files, deleted the work folder and restarted JIRA. But the manage filters page still looks the same.
