Hi @Vera_wyss hope you're doing well!

It seems that the STAGIL Hide Comment plugin is outdated. However, its functionality was simple, so we can easily reproduce it. Here are some alternatives:

1. ScriptRunner

This method works if you have the ScriptRunner plugin installed.

• Create a Behaviour in ScriptRunner.

• Select your project and issue type.

• Configure it as follows:
  

This setup hides the Comment field for the selected project and issue type in all actions (edit and transitions).

But! If you need to hide the field only on the edit screen, you’ll need some customization:

• Create an initialize script and insert this code:

  String actionName = getActionName()
  
  if (Objects.isNull(actionName)) {
      getFieldById("comment").setHidden(true)
  }

  

2. Built-in Jira Tools

This option is available out of the box, but it reduces instance security.

1. Go to General Configuration and set "Enable HTML in field descriptions and list item values" to ON.
   

2. Create a custom field and name it HIDE COMMENT. The field type can be anything (e.g., Number Field).

3. Add this code to the field description (replace customfield_10600 with your HIDE COMMENT customfield_id):

   <script type='text/javascript'>
       const divFormBody = $("div.form-body")
       const hideCommentField = divFormBody.find("#customfield_10600")
   
       if (hideCommentField.length) {
           // Hide comment
           hideCommentField.parent().siblings("div.comment-input").hide()
           // Hide technical 'HIDE COMMENT' field itself:
           hideCommentField.parent().hide()
       }
   </script>

   

4. Add the field to the desired screen and see the magic happen! 🙂

If you encounter any difficulties, feel free to ask me, and I'll do my best to help.

Hi @Sergei Troshin

Hello Vera, 

STAGIL Hide Comment for Jira has been deprecated and is no longer supported. This means there will be no further development, compatibility testing, or bug fixes for this app.

However, you may consider the STAGIL Navigation for Jira app, as the 'Hide Comment' functionality has been migrated there: STAGIL Navigation for Jira. Please note that this is a paid alternative.

Regards, 
Marta
