Can find comments field when using Issue workflow post funciton

[Kevin Seery]

Hi,

I need to have comments on issue creation screen.

I understand the only way is to create a custom field then have post function that copy the text from the custom feild to the comment field.

I can see the comment filed in the post function field list? using jira-misc-workflow-ex post fucntion.

Many Thanks

Kevin

Comments on create don't make a lot of sense - if the creator has useful things to say about what they're writing, then they go into the description.  A secondary "notes" box catches the cases where you want something specific or highly structured in the Description, but then putting it into a comment is totally unneccessary because you've captured it during create anyway.

I don't think JMWE has a "copy field into a comment", so I think you'd have to find a scripting add-on or write your own post-function.
