Manage custom field context schemes - 6.0.x

Custom Field Context Schemes are collections of contexts of custom fields that can be used when a project is created.

In versions 6.0.0 and 6.0.1, custom fields in custom field context schemes override existing custom fields with a global context (available in all projects and all issues). Starting with version 6.0.2, custom fields in custom field context schemes apply only if they don’t exist with a global context.

  1. From the Cog menu , select Manage apps.

  2. Locate the Delegated Project Creator section in the left sidebar and select Project Templates Settings to display the Configure Project Templates Settings page.

  3. From the Custom Field Context Schemes tab,

    1. Enter a user-friendly name for the Custom Field Context Scheme.

    2. Click the Add button ().
