Set label or color to an user

[Andrei Ionut Sandu]

Hello,

I would like to know if JIRA has any plugin or direct way to set a color or label to users.

For example, we have 3 big groups and each with sub-groups where the people are added.

GroupA

  SubG1, SubG2

GroupB

  SubG11, SubG22

GroupC

  SubG111, SubG222

On a ticket, in the 'People' area(Assignee & Reporter), I want to be able to separate the users area for several reports.

If the 'Assignee' user is from GroupA and his SubGs, I want him marked with blue color or a special tag, let's say '[GA] usernameX'.

If the 'Assignee' is from GroupB and his SubGs, green color or tagged '[GB] usernameY' etc.

Thank you,

Jira doesn't recognise sub-groups, so you'll just have to work off the groups themselves.

Jira doesn't have any functions for displaying users or groups with differentials, a group is simply a group, not a formatting or content item.

I've not found any apps that can do this either.

Ok. Thank you for your answer. I guess that the only way could be a special script.

@Nic Brough -Adaptavist-Do you know if it's possible to create something like this with a custom script made by a JIRA developer?

We need this improvement somehow.

I think you could do it with a custom app, but I'm less familiar with front-end display stuff than the backend functions, so I am not 100% sure it is possible.

Where should I ask or whom from Atlassian? Any idea? :) We need this badly.
