Hi,

check files:

atlassian-jira\WEB-INF\classes\templates\plugins\webfragments\system-navigation-bar.vm

atlassian-jira\WEB-INF\classes\templates\plugins\webfragments\system-admin-navigation-bar.vm

[Radek Kantor]

Correct solution is edit system-top-navigation-plugin.xml file.

Find elements like

<web-item ... section="system.top.navigation.bar" ... weight="XXX">

and change weight value which defines an order.

There is no such files in Jira 7 - is that possible to do other way?

[Nic Brough -Adaptavist-]

Correct, this is a seven year old question and is now irrelevant - I'd recommend asking a new one (although the answer is going to be "make an unsupported change to a properties file that will make your Jira less friendly to people who have used it before")

Hey is there a way to freeze the top navigation bar so that when you scroll down its still there?

You can do it by editing some files in the core of Jira, but I doubt the effort of finding them, editing them and then maintaining the changes through upgrade is worth it.
