Put Banner On a Specific Project

[Spruha Shah]

We have migrated several projects in our instance and changed the permission to read only for only those projects. We want to just let those projects know that these are migrated by putting a banner or header on that specific project only and NOT on the entire instance. How can we do that in cloud?

@Spruha Shah ,

As far as I know, this is not natively possible in Jira (Cloud). Maybe there is a plugin for that?

A work-around solution that comes to mind is to do the following:

1. Update the Permission Scheme to allow creating tickets in these projects (leave all other permissions on read-only)
2. Update the Create Screen with a Message Custom Field (tip: use {panel} <text here> {panel} to make this pretty). Remove all other fields from the create screen and make one field mandatory (but not shown). 

People should then not be able to create actual tickets, but still get an explanation about the situation, without being able to create new issues. I would suggest actually removing most of the fields, to avoid people filling in 20 fields and then getting stuck later :)

Adding to this...

There are two open change requests asking for this, to which you can add your vote.

https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRACLOUD-77529

https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRACLOUD-83831

Previous change request for the same feature have been closed as Won't Fix or Low Engagement.

Another suggestion is to update the display name of the project to append "READ ONLY" to it.
