Hi,

When I logged in today I noticed that the layout of the field 'Status' is right above the description on the left hand side of the screen. However, it used to be on the right hand side. 

I have checked and even consulted with chatgpt but cannot find an option to change to old layout or edit this.

 

What can i do? my teams are complaining that this is inconveniently placed now.

 

Thanks

HI @Victoria Montesdeoca , welcome to the Atlassian Community and thanks for your post.

Unfortunately, this is a new 'enhancement' from Atlassian and we can't do anything about this.

You are not alone - https://community.atlassian.com/forums/Jira-questions/Status-System-Field-got-moved-to-Description-from-Context/qaq-p/3116222 

I agree it was not a good move but it is how things are now.

Sorry
