How to disable Structure by default when creating a Jira

[AJ]

I installed Structure in my Jira instance, but now whenever I go to create an issue, it will try to put it in a structure.  There is a link at the bottom saying do not use structure, but by default I do not want to go to a structure as lots of folks are using that Jira instance who are not going to use Structure.   Is it possible that by default it stays regular Jira and by selecting some box, the issue will be created in a structure?

Hi AJ,

This link only appears when you create an issue while viewing Structure board. So the users that don't use Structure will have the default create issue screen without option to add issue to any structure. Creating issues from any other screen but Structure board will not put the item in a structure either.

Please, let me know if this answers your concerns.

Hi everyone, I found a solution to adding to Structure by default :) Enough persistence with Google will find you anything.

In your announcement banner, add:

<script>
try { window.almworks.structure.installCreateIssueHandler=null; } catch (e) {}
</script>

So this answers the question of when it happens, but is there any way to enforce or actually do this?

Hi Jimmy,

As mentioned in our service desk, if you restrict the structure's permissions to view only, it is possible to prevent adding issues to the structure via create menu.
