How to change UI back to normal?

[Joanne Sia]

Hi all, I am struggling with the UI as it suddenly changed from original to this really different UI that I am not a fan of! Anyone have any idea how to change it back?

Hi @Joanne Sia 

What you're seeing if the new navigation UI for Jira, to turn it off refer : https://support.atlassian.com/jira-software-cloud/docs/what-is-the-new-navigation-in-jira/#Frequently-asked-questions

To turn the new navigation on or off:

1. From the top right corner, select Settings > General settings.

2. Under Jira Labs, you can toggle the switch for New navigation.

3. Refresh the page.

Note: Turning the new navigation or off will only affect you and not all users on the site.

Hi Joanne - Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

You can toggle it off per Jehan's instructions, but you might as well get used to it because at some point you will be switched over to it and you will not be able to turn it off.

This has happened to me and I am not a happy person!  I hate the new layout!

This new update is garbage, Jira is trying to phase out IT Software Project Types so you have to use their other degraded project types (that have limited functionality vs IT Software).
