Since October 2022, we have released a new powerful feature! Templates by Project with no Jira Admin intervention!!
Just create a ticket in your project with summary “TEMPLATE:IssueTypeName”, ex: “TEMPLATE:Bug” and the system will use the description of the ticket for the next created Bugs. You can also define a “TEMPLATE:Default” summary to apply to the rest of IssueTypes.
Is plug’n’play!
User reviews
Although it would be better if you could share the templates with all the users of a project, the problem is that the Chrome extension creates a mistake in the visualization of some gadgets in the dashboards!! Since I installed the extension I couldn't see anymore a burndown (conflict with permissions it seemed), issue calendar and other gadgets in dashboards (with error HTTP 400...); I tried uninstalling the extension and I could see again the gadgets...
So the pluggin could be better, the extension makes the pluggin impossible to use.
It's ok. The biggest problem is you have to go through the links in the left project nav in order to have the template buttons available. This would be waaaaay more useful if these buttons were always available wherever the description box was rendered.
Description & Comment Templates for Jira requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
