How do I change text such as "You can raise a request from the options provided."

[Michael Woffenden]

We want to change the english texts to different english texts.

For example, from:

• You can raise a request from the options provided.

to:

• You may create a request from the options provided.

Hi Michael,

You can easily change that by going to the Project Settings -> Portal Settings and change the Introduction text (Optional) to your new text :)

I don't seem to be able to edit the Introduction text. I am the JIRA Administrator so not sure why it cannot be edited. Am I missing something?

[Michael Woffenden]

Hi Phil - Are you on Jira Cloud or Jira Server?

[Phil Scott]

Jira Cloud

[Michael Woffenden]

Hey Phil - This is the portal settings page in Cloud and I've marked the area where you should be able to edit. 

1. Are we talking about the same screen?
2. Can you "click" into the text box?
3. Is the Save button enabled?

[Phil Scott]

I do not see text boxes where I can edit, nor do I see the save button. This is what I see:

[Michael Woffenden]

Please go to project settings -> people. Do you have the Administrators role?

[Phil Scott]

ah there you go... that has done it. Being JIRA admin is not enough. Need to be Project Admin too. 

Thanks for your assistance!

[Michael Woffenden]

Any time!

This was also useful for me, thank you both!
