Additional field for Other option in a select list

[Lior Israeli]

I have a select list with several option.

I would like have an option called other and when this option is selected a new field (enter value for other) will show up/prompted

I would like this field valid/appear only if Other was selected as an option

You can even use the behaviours plugin which i guess is included in the Ondemand version . there is a similar example here

[Lior Israeli]

I do not have the Behaviours plugin.

Here is a list of the plugins included in the Ondemand version:

• Flowdock for JIRA
• GreenHopper
• CustomWare Get Satisfaction Connector Plugin
• CustomWare Sauce Labs Connector Plugin
• CustomWare uTest Connector Plugin
• CustomWare Zendesk Connector Plugin
• DVCS Connector Plugin
• JIRA Bamboo Plugin
• JIRA Calendar Plugin
• JIRA Charting Plugin
• JIRA FishEye Plugin
• JIRA Miscellaneous Workflow Extensions Plugin
• JIRA Mobile Connect
• JIRA Suite Utilities Plugin
• JIRA Toolkit Plugin
• JIRA Timesheet Report and Portlet Plugin
• JIRA Wallboards Plugin
• Zephyr Test Management Plugin

OK , so behaviours plugin is not bundled with Ondemand , its a very helpful plugin it should come with ondemand also . you will have to go by the javascript approach . Have a look at this document and javascript should work in ondemand

JIRA Toolkit Plugin is installed, so you can create new customfield - Velocity processed Message Custom Field (for edit) and set it's default value with your javascript.

Thank you, but can you please explain in more dtail, especially the part "set it's default value with your javascript."?

How this is done?

[Sergey Papurin]

For your new customfield create new Configuration Scheme or edit default and edit default value. Javascript code you can find in link i gave earlier - http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRACOM/Using+JavaScript+to+Set+Custom+Field+Values

[Lior Israeli]

I read through the link you sent but I am not any wiser :(

Either my lack of knowledge of JIRA or my lack of understanding.

I have created a custom field called Comments1

I want it to have the value of the system Comment field.

Can you please tell me, what code should I use and where should I put this code?

[Sergey Papurin]

You can use this http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRACOM/Using+JavaScript+to+Set+Custom+Field+Values

Can I use JavaScript with OnDemand?

[Sergey Papurin]

Do you mean onclick and etc function? You can write on javascript, jquery, ajax using functions and external .js files without any limits. Also see JIRA Toolkit plugin (https://plugins.atlassian.com/plugins/com.atlassian.jira.toolkit)

[Lior Israeli]

As I said, I am using JIRA On-Demand and therfore cannot is plugins.

[Sergey Papurin]

Ok, you can use description of customfield and write your javascript code in it.
