How do you make bulk changes in next-gen Jira?

There doesn't seem to be the same gear icon available as in old Jira?

Well, if thats the question, the asnwer is that you can't embed velocity in your atlassian-plugin.xml, you can however have a webwork action, who's success/other response is redirected to a velocity template for rendering. For velocity syntax information, see : http://velocity.apache.org/engine/devel/user-guide.html

Um, your question doesn't quite make sense.

The title says you're trying to do something in atlassian-plugin.xml, but then you talk about some velocity code. Rather than try to unscramble this muddle, I'll try to break it into pieces

• atlassian-plugin.xml is for settings in your plugins. It's an xml file, not velocity
• The velocity is broadly the right idea, but
  • The "if" clause needs to be in ()
  • there's no spaces in directives (#if, not # if)
  • I think the jira.baseurl is correct, but don't rely on me
  • It does however, need to be a variable - $jira.baseurl
• Your velocity needs to go into a velocity template file, somewhere within your plugin
