Hi Mohin,

I may not be understanding your question, but I think you're asking if you can replace the generic "attach file" text with the text "Upload Global copy for reference". This should be possible with custom CSS or JavaScript.

This is possible by default in Confluence, and there is a hacky workaround in JIRA:

Could you please inform me How can I add follwing multiple attachment field to the form.I would like to replace generic "attach file" text with the text following texts.

	Documentation
1	Upload CV	Upload Box
2	Reference 1	Upload Box
3	Reference 2	Upload Box
4	Competency Sheet	Upload Box
5	NDA	Upload Box

If you're talking about Confluence and the comment to @Simon Tower's question is what you really want...

Browse to Confluence Admin | Look & Feel | Custom HTML

Paste the following into At the end of the HEAD:

<style>
  AJS.toInit(function () {
    var $attachmentsForm = AJS.$('form#upload-attachments');
    $attachmentsForm.find('#more-attachments-link').click(); // expose each of the 5 file upload inputs
    
    var $li = $attachmentsForm.find('li');
    var inserts = ['Upload CV','Reference 1','Reference 2','Competency Sheet','NDA'];
   
    for (var i = 0; i < inserts.length; i++) {
      AJS.$($li[i]).prepend('<span style="display:inline-block; width:140px;">' + inserts[i] + '</span>');
    }
  });
</style>

This will give you something similar to:

That trick is for Confluence. Jira doesn't have custom html.

You could try something similar in the "announcement banner", but I don't think the Jira "attachment" field will support it fully, and I don't think it's going to work unless you do some coding in the core of Jira or write a plugin to provide a work-around.
