Generally, the best option is what you've done, replacing old incompatible add-ons with their updated versions.

Could you give us more detail on "custom fields not loading correct data"?  What are the fields and their types?

Hi Nic,

Thank for your reply. The plugin i use in Jira version6 really old and in version 7 the provider have no updated version.

My custom field type is "Calculated Number Field" this have Formula like this 

<!--
@@Formula: (issue.get("customfield_10500") != null ? issue.get("customfield_10500") : "") + (issue.get("customfield_10618") != null ? " (" + issue.get("customfield_10618") + " " : "") + (issue.get("customfield_10625") != null ? issue.get("customfield_10625") + ")" : "") -->

I also checked in the database the same with the old version(v6)

Not sure why it could not get correct data in the new jira(v7)

Acctually when i do upgrade Jira from v6 to v7 some plugins are incompatible so i follow this instruction https://confluence.atlassian.com/jirakb/upgrading-to-jira-7-throws-a-nosuchmethoderror-on-com-atlassian-crowd-embedded-api-user-781396615.html

Then all bugs plugin were fixed. However when i've done re-indexing the custom fields could not get correct data(maybe be cause some plugin incompatible still using some custom fields). You guys have any idea to fix this?
