Change render on custom field

[Екатерина Фомичева]

I created a new custom field and wanted to set up the render on the Wiki Style Render, but in the custom fields settings I don't see the render setting box, and there is no Wiki Renderer Macros Plugin. I have jira version 8.5.3

Hi @Екатерина Фомичева 

You can change Renderer on Field Configuration. Open Project Settings ->  Fields -> Edit icon (you will edit the configuration for all projects using this Field configuration). Find your field and click Renderers option in Action column. 

There you will be able to select Wiki Style Renderer.

Best regards,

Piotr

This is only working for me for the default fields. I am unable to find this option for any custom fields.

This is not under custim fields. You need to look in your field configurations. See my answer above.

Kind regards

@Piotr Zadrożny _Eyzee_ , @Fabian Laqua . Does this change in renderer affect the existing tickets ?

[Fabian Laqua]

@Prajwal Ashok Nagrale 

Basically not. The tickets are functional even when the render is changed.
However, if you evaluate the text field in any way (for example, searching for substrings), it is best to try this out with a test field. I'm not so sure about that right now.

I agree. It works well !

If you want to change the field renderer you need to navigate over the field configurations. Then you can change the renderer from a custom text field to a wiki type field.

As you can see in the picture below.
