Can I create custom fields at the project-level? Is there a plug-in avaliable to allow me to do it?

Joseph Faill

We need to create custom fields within the project information section. This is not the same as the Key and numbers for individual issues. We have numerous projects, each containing a few issues (which are already identified by the Key and number system). But, we need to be able to create a custom number for each project itself to help us keep track of them. Is this possible to do in JIRA 5.0? If not, are there any avaliable pulg-ins that allows us to do this?

If you are on JIRA OnDemand, you can't install custom plugins. There is no way to add custom fields at project level in onDemand.

Joseph Faill

What is the difference between OnDemand and Download?

Jobin Kuruvilla [Adaptavist]

onDemand is the hosted version of JIRA provided by Atlassian. They have policies on what plugins are installed.

Other, downloaded, version is what you install yourself and manage. You can customize it to your heart's content because you "own" the instance.

Joseph Faill

So if I'm logging in online to use JIRA, I am most likely using the OnDemand version?

You cannot add customfields on project creation screen .

You can add a metadata to your project using this plugin

In your case the metadata will be a number by which you will be identifying your projects.

Joseph Faill

How do I make this metadata appear in the summary of the project? So far it only has its own tab 2 tabs down from the summary tab. I want to add a new field into the summary tab. I want the field to be titled "Project ID" and be visible in the Description box. How do I do that?

Joseph Faill

I want it to look like this when I'm done. I want a product ID space right there. (I used MS paint to do this to show you what I am looking for).

I want that space to be a default text renderer of >255 characters.

Mizan

For the field to appear as shown above you will have to modify the Jira source code , A better option would be to create your own plugin which will provide a facility to add the product id to your project and display it on the summary tab of the project .

You can use active objects to store this product id , a project tab panel where project admin can add the project id and a Web fragment plugin module to display this on the summary tab.

Custom fields on project level:

Again, this is not what the asker was looking for. Project level, not issue level.
