Add link issue field to create issue form

[Andrew]

Hi,

Is it possible to add the "link" field to the create issue form so that when creating a new issue you can link it to an existing issue without having to do this after the issue has been added. I've taken a look but I can't see it anywhere.

Kind regards,

Andrew.

If I read the ticket linked above, it will be available in Jira 4.4. Since Atlassian has updated their own public Jira to version 4.4, it is lickely to be released soon.

True... that will be useful.

Just to let you all know, Jira 4.4 is available for download!

Not possible in any nice way... this relates to the "link issue" UI not being available as a custom field. Have a look at https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRA-6748 and related tickets.

You could have a text field where the user enters an issue ID, and you link it in a post-function, but it's not nearly as user-friendly.
