Hi,

The reason is quite simple: thiis functionality is provided by a plugin - JIRA Importers Plugin. In newer versions of JIRA, a newer version of the plugin was bundled (or you have upgraded it manually). In recent versions of JIRA Importers Plugin settings page has been completely removed (for the sake of simpler UI and easier import) and the importer just always creates users, versions, components and custom fields.

We decided to do that because we think that very few people don't want to create this stuff (as it usually means that the import will fail for these rows from CSV file) and we want to spare one more screen to all these users who don't need this functionality.

If you don't like this change, please raise an issue at https://studio.atlassian.com/browse/JIM.

Cheers,

Wojtek
