This is one of many reasons that you should never use javascript in Jira.  I strongly recommend that whatever you're trying to do with javascript, stop it, and look at how to do it properly.

To get back into edit, you need to work out the custom field's ID (you can hover a cursor over the field in a field configuration screen and the browser will give you the url as a tooltip, it should contain a field id as well as one for the field configuration), then go to edit another custom field and replace the ID in the url with the one for the field you want to edit.

Hi Hector,

May you possibly post here the formula you added to the description?

I suspect there might be some html/javascript causing this.

Maybe you can disable javascript on your browser, reload that page with Ctrl + F5 (for not using cached temporary files) and check whether that action causes the cog icon to appear.
