That is not possible out of the box, but you can use this free add-on https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/org.craftforge.jira.craftforge-jql-functions-plugin

hi - I've got this to do pretty much what we need thanks. However, what I’d really like to see is the Link Type on the filter results as well – is this possible?

Also, you say that this is free, but it looks like a pricing breakdown on the webpage?

You can't see the link type, you can see only the linked issues if you configure columns of the list view of the issue navigator.

And yes I was wrong it's not free add-on.

Here's one more suggestion (this time really free though :) )

hi - thanks for this. However, our Developer in Shanghai has sent me the following message - we'd appreciate any help you can give:

I took much time to make that ‘Groovy Runner’ worked in our test instance including a ‘re-indexing’. However, even I installed jars(plugins) into our system, and the “Script Runner“ & “Script Listeners” have appeared in ‘admin->options& Settings’, I still cannot find a way to make that custom field ‘issueFunction’ (automatically added by plugin) and JQL function “ hasLinks()” appear in our system.

I have copied 2 jar files (groovy-all-1.7.10.jar and groovyrunner-1.7.13.jar)into \atlassian-jira\WEB-INF\lib, can you ask is that ok? Anything else we need to do to make it run?
