Release notes 7.5.6

Release dateApr 21, 2026

Our team is thrilled to announce the latest release of Clone Plus for Jira, version 7.5.6

Jira compatibility: 9.15.0 to 10.7.4


Enhancements

  • To align with Atlassian's trial policies, we updated how trial licenses are managed. You can now use an Appfire trial license key on the new License Management page under Manage apps to extend your trial after a standard Atlassian trial ends. See the Appfire trial licensing documentation to learn about requesting a key.

  • When using Clone+ or Clone++ on an epic that contains more than 100 issues, a warning message is now displayed in the clone window to inform users that processing may take longer and could lead to Jira timeouts.

  • Skip Disabled Custom Field Options During Clone: Clone Plus can now automatically skip disabled (inactive) custom field option values when cloning issues. Previously, disabled options were always copied verbatim from the source issue to the clone, leading to stale data. Please expand to check the use case.

Configuration

Enable the feature by adding to your clone properties:

option.skipDisabledOptions = true

The setting defaults to false (off) for backward compatibility. You can also override per field:

option.skipDisabledOptions.customfield_10050 = true option.skipDisabledOptions.customfield_10051 = false

Per-field overrides take precedence over the global setting.

Supported Custom Field Types

Single Select List, Radio Buttons, Multi Select List, Multi Checkboxes, and Cascading Select.

Behavior

Single Select / Radio Buttons:

  • Source option is enabled: copied as-is (no change).

  • Source option is disabled, field is not required, has an enabled default: default value is used.

  • Source option is disabled, field is not required, no enabled default: left empty.

  • Source option is disabled, field is required, has an enabled default: default value is used.

  • Source option is disabled, field is required, no enabled default: disabled option is kept and a warning is logged.

Multi Select / Multi Checkboxes:

  • All source options are enabled: copied as-is (no change).

  • Mix of enabled and disabled: only enabled options are copied.

  • All source options are disabled, field is not required, has enabled defaults: defaults are used.

  • All source options are disabled, field is not required, no enabled defaults: set to empty.

  • All source options are disabled, field is required, has enabled defaults: defaults are used.

  • All source options are disabled, field is required, no enabled defaults: disabled options are kept and a warning is logged.

Cascading Select:

  • Parent and child both enabled: copied as-is.

  • Parent enabled, child disabled: parent is kept, child is cleared.

  • Parent disabled, field is not required, has an enabled default: default parent/child is used.

  • Parent disabled, field is not required, no enabled default: field is left empty.

  • Parent disabled, field is required, has an enabled default: default parent/child is used.

  • Parent disabled, field is required, no enabled default: disabled parent is kept and a warning is logged.

When a required field has only disabled options and no valid default value is configured, Clone Plus retains the disabled option as a last resort to prevent clone failures. A warning is logged: "Clone Plus: required select field 'Field Name' retains a disabled option because no enabled default exists"

Security improvements

  • Addressed several high and critical vulnerabilities in Clone plus for Atlassian Data Center.
    This includes updating the com.fasterxml.jackson.core:jackson-core dependency to a secure version, resolving the advisory

GHSA-72hv-8253-57qq (https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-72hv-8253-57qq) – Number Length Constraint Bypass in Async Parser Leads to Potential DoS Condition

Bug fixes

  • Resolved an issue where Clone++ displayed empty target projects when the user lacked creation permissions.
