How to the status color ?

[Gal Fatal]

Hi,

I have customer with many statuses and he asks for different colors.

I know the color can be only one of the 3 categories , todo, in progress and done. but this is not enough. I want to use my own colors and more than 3.

Any creative idea how to change status colors to be custom ?

thanks,

Gal

Hi @Gal Fatal ,

This is a common frustration as Jira doesn't allow you to change the color of "to do," "in progress," and/or "done" statuses. 

You can search the Atlassian marketplace for options you can try. 

One option I recommend is using Visor. It securely connects to your Jira data, and your customers can format projects they want based on the colors they choose.

So, if they want To-Do statuses to be fire engine red, that can be done. If they want "Done" statuses to be a calm green, that can be done, too. Here's a screenshot so you can see how it looks. You can even change the colors for assignees if you want.

You can also find Visor on the Atlassian marketplace too https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1226209/visor-spreadsheet-gantt-chart-for-jira-with-excel-export?hosting=cloud&tab=overview

Thank you @Michael Yaroshefsky - Visor for Jira , it gives me solution for the group of statuses but not for individual status.

New Status Colors PRO provides a pretty complete solution for this!

I am not using this actively, but tried it in the past.
