Creating a new Type of IssueLink

[Ramiro Pointis]

Does the Jira have a default option to do this? I've searched a lot and didn't found it. Or maybe this can only be done with a plugin?

Hi Ramiro,

what do you mean with "IssueLink" ? A link between two issues ? If so, your Jira admin must allow this and define kind of links (for example is related to, duplicates, etc)

If linking is activated, you find it under "more actions" in the issue view.

Best regards

Sorry, I meant how to create a new type of IssueLink. Just for example "is part of", "it has something to do with". a new addition to the already existing Types of IssueLinks.

ah, ok. New Link Types can be defined in the admin console. Look here: http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRA/Configuring+Issue+Linking

I can't believe I missed that! Thanks Thomas! Very appreciative!
