Summary0022640: Contradicting information in Admin Guide - custom fields
Description

The major issues:

  • Section 6.8.3 cheerfully muddies the corresponding information in section 7.2.2. See the attached screenshots with highlighted entries. For example:

    • 6.8.3: Display When Updating Issues -> If checked, the field will NOT be shown on the update issue and change status displays
    • 7.2.2: Display when updating issues? -> If this custom field should be shown on the Update Issue page.
  • Section 6.8.3 warns user about the Advanced Page issue: "Be careful not to set both a required attribute and show only on advanced display. It may be possible to trigger a validation error that the user cannot recover from (i.e., field is not filled in)." however the Display Only On Advanced Page is nowhere to be found (see screenshot).

The minor issues:

  • Section 6.8.3 list 9 different field Types, while 7.2.2 list 10 field types. In reality however there are 11 types.
TagsNo tags attached.
