Hello @1334587353 ,

Thanks for reaching out, and looking at the behavior you are seeing it looks like there is more than likely a default value set in the description or the description field or a script launching in the background to pre-populate the system description field with a pre-set value.

If its a custom description field the following thread describes where this would be set up:

• https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-questions/How-do-I-pre-populate-text-to-a-description-field-on-JIRA-Cloud/qaq-p/456606

If it's the default Description Field check for any javascript added to the Announcement banner or in the description of the field 'description' in the field configuration for the project.

If there is no javascript in these locations, it could also be an add-on like Scriptrunner which could be adding in the custom value and altering the behavior on a trigger even, so check your add-ons for any that alter the application behavior, or you could transition the application int add-on safe mode  do disable all add-ons temporarily to test for an add-on.

Regards,
Earl

Hello!

Happy to help you with this. Could you let me know more about the issue? Your question is in the Confluence collection, but you mentioned that you're creating a project, which is a feature of Jira.

Could you confirm with me exactly what you're trying to do? Could you share a screenshot of the problem?

It will also help to know your current Confluence version.

Thank you!

Shannon

Yes, this is JIRA's problem, can you help analyze it here?

Hello,

Thank you for sharing those screenshots. It does look that the issue is in Jira, rather than Confluence.

I'll go ahead and move this over to the Jira collection where my colleagues will be able to assist you further.

Regards,

Shannon
