As the users are neglecting the description of the Priority field, a more detail custom field is created to represent the Priority field. Depending on the radio button custom field selected, the Priority field value is set.
- Create a customfield name "Severity" at Browse >> Administration >> Issue Fields >> Custom Fields
- Configure the radio button custom field to have a field options
- Check the customfield ID in the Customfield table from the database by using the following SQL query:
SELECT id FROM customfield WHERE cfname="Severity";
- Modify the following javascript code so that <id> will be replaced with the id of the custom field found from the first step:
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8" id="priorityCustomFieldScript">
function setIssuePriorityAndSubmit(e)
{
// set the value of the priority field here:
if(document.getElementById("customfield_<id>_1").checked)
{
document.getElementById("priority").selectedIndex = 0;
}
else if(document.getElementById("customfield_<id>_2").checked)
{
document.getElementById("priority").selectedIndex = 1;
}
else if(document.getElementById("customfield_<id>_3").checked)
{
document.getElementById("priority").selectedIndex = 2;
}
else if(document.getElementById("customfield_<id>_4").checked)
{
document.getElementById("priority").selectedIndex = 3;
}
else if(document.getElementById("customfield_<id>_5").checked)
{
document.getElementById("priority").selectedIndex = 4;
}
}
function hidePriorityAndAddSeverityHook()
{
var row = document.getElementById("priorityFieldArea");
row.style.display = 'none';
AJS.$("#customfield_<id>_1").parents('form').submit(setIssuePriorityAndSubmit);
}
var currentLocation = window.location.href;
if (currentLocation.indexOf('CreateIssue') > -1 || currentLocation.indexOf('EditIssue') > -1) {
AJS.$(document).ready(hidePriorityAndAddSeverityHook);
}
</script>
- Paste the javascript into the description of the "Severity" customfield at Browse >> Administration >> Issue Fields >> Custom Fields.
There is no need to hide or remove the 'Priority' field from the screen. The javascript code will hide the Priority field by itself.
