Auto Transition - Without links between issues

Question

Hi,

I need some help,

We are using a plugin to synchronize versions between two projects. I need to make a setting so that project Issues "A" automatically close when a issue of the "B" project, which have the same value of "Fix version", close. Whithout link between issues. 
Is there any way to make this setting using script or plugin?

Thank you,

Ok, two things here.

First, no, you will absolutey have to script or code for this.  You'll need some logic that will pick up the Fix version on the issue being closed, then run a filter for the issues to be closed, then run the (presumably common) transition on them.

Secondly, the requirement sounds like an informational disaster to me.  Arbitrarily closing other issues just because you close one issue sounds like you're simply using versions incorrectly.  If there were links, yes, sometimes it's appropriate, but this just sounds like versions are being abused.
