Hi All

I can customise the JIRA Introduction message by going into the Administration -> System -> Editing the introduction field.

My requirement is to add a hyperlink to a certain piece of text to the introduction section.

How can i do that?

You should be able to use a regular HTML link: 

<a href="url">link text</a>

This doesn't work in jira SD server. You need to use wiki markup  as [your text|<url>]
