Set cloner always as reporter?

[Philipp Oelwein]

Hi,

when cloning an issue, usually the reporter is retained in the clone, except the cloning person lacks the 'Modify Reporter' permission (as documented in http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRA/Cloning+an+Issue).

Is it possible to configure that the cloning person is always set as reporter in the clone, regardless of permissions?

Thanks
Philipp

Since we are still on 4.2.1, I'll wait until an update of our installation and reconsider the issue afterwards. Thanks for the hint anyway.

Regards
Philipp

Hi phi,

There is a ticket request about this feature. You may refer to this ticket JRA-1558 for reference.

For other option, you may consider to use the following plugin:

Hope it helps.

Regards,

As of today, the feature request is still open. So, I guess we must use the suggested plugin.
