Calendar view inside addon

Since version 4.1.1 a Calendar View inside Projects and a Calendar Dashboard Gadget is available, where we can get an overview of the situation at any time.

In order to be able to activate this view, the tasks in the project must have the DueDate value set. In this case we have the possibility to display a calendar with this information with colors based on the status color.

As shown in the following GIF, we can display the calendar by selecting, from the left-hand sidebar, the Add-ons item and from there the new Calendar item.

The calendar view can be switched on or off. Simply activate or deactivate it, as shown in the following GIF:

(disable the module “Issue Calendar Panel” inside the Status Colors add-on/license screen)

Just enable/disable the module : Issue Calendar Panel in Manage App Section.

Audit Transitions and Time in status IssueView Panels (by Jira Users & Admins)

• • • With these new superpowers you will be able to see all the information you need within the Issues: A Transitions panel to track and audit ticket transitions, another panel with the most relevant Transitions and a last panel with the time spent grouped by status (Time in status). In addition, you will see the statuses in full color if your browser extension is activated!

👉 Audit Transitions Panel

👉Grouped Transition Panel

👉 Time in Status Panel

Use the “Menu” Icon (near the panel title) to change the panel view

Auditing a ticket will now be a simple task

👉 Troubleshooting: (by Jira Users & Admins) 

• • • The first time the plugin is installed in our favorite browser, the system loads the list of statuses and colors in a browser cookie, in this way, it does not make a call to Jira every time there is a status to shown. For this reason we use a cache in form of cookie, named: StatusColorsv2

    • If your admin change or modify or add new statuses and colors, probably the cookie will be outdated and must be refreshed. In that case, go to your Personal Profile page of Jira and click in the large named button “click here to reload NewStatusColorsPRO Cache…”
