Indicate that there is a link if user not permitted to other JIRA project?

[Jositz, Michael (Allianz SE)]

Is there a way that JIRA does not show a linked issue if the user is not permitted to the other project but shows that there is a linked issue? Maybe with a warning like "The are linked issues but you are not permitted to view them".

[Wojciech Seliga]

OOB JIRA hides the link if one of the ends (issue) is not vieable (browse permissions or security level restrictions).

To achieve what you want, you would need to write a simple (really) plugin, which would display something like that using either:

- a web panel - https://developer.atlassian.com/display/JIRADEV/Web+Panel+Plugin+Module (my preferred choice)

- a calculated custom field - https://developer.atlassian.com/display/JIRADEV/Custom+Field+Plugin+Module

- tab panel - https://developer.atlassian.com/display/JIRADEV/Issue+Tab+Panel+Plugin+Module)
