Add Custom Field to Description Section

FranklinG June 6, 2023

I would like a newly created Custom Field "Bug Description" to populate in the Description section of my screen. Currently it populates in the Details section of my screen. How do I change the section in which the Custom Field populates?

Hi @FranklinG

You'll want to configure this in the Issue Layout settings - Project Settings > Issues > Layout.

From there, you should be able to move particular types of fields to different areas of the screen!

Doc for reference: https://support.atlassian.com/jira-cloud-administration/docs/configure-issue-layout/

Hope that helps - Steve.

What is the onprem version of this? We do not have cloud.

I'm trying to do something similar. We have Data Center 9.4 and can't find the Issue Layout settings - Project Settings > Issues > Layout. @Steve Long -Evelon-
