1. Version Highlights

  • Support for the upcoming JIRA 5.
  • Support for GreenHopper 5.8.6 and the upcoming GreenHopper 5.9.

2. Changes in Detail

2.1. JIRA 5 Support

JIRA 5 is coming out soon, and Structure 1.5 is the version for JIRA 5 that will be compatible at launch. Due to massive changes in JIRA 5, support for it is the biggest change in this Structure version.

Support for JIRA 5 has been tested with the latest Release Candidate 7.

2.2. Support for New GreenHopper Versions

GreenHopper 5.8.6 has a different Ranking API, so GreenHopper synchronizer in the older versions of Structure will not be able to change Rank field in the newest GreenHopper version.

Structure 1.5 introduces support for GreenHopper 5.8.6 and for GreenHopper 5.9 (tested against the latest Release Candidate). Structure still supports older versions of GreenHopper.

2.3. Change to the Operations Dialog Keyboard Shortcut on the Issue Page

The "." (dot) keyboard shortcut brings up JIRA's Operations dialog, which allows you to quickly apply an action to the selected issue.

Prior to Structure 1.5, using this keyboard shortcut on the Issue Page would open Operations dialog for the issue currently selected in Structure. Starting from Structure 1.5, pressing "." on the Issue Page always brings up Operations dialog for the issue being viewed, regardless of the issue selected in Structure. This is consistent with other JIRA keyboard shortcuts ("m", "l" and so on), that work in the same manner on the Issue Page.

Structure widget on other pages is not affected by this change.

2.4. Notable Bugs Fixed

3. Supported JIRA Versions

This version supports JIRA versions 4.3 – 5.0.x. There are separate downloadable files for JIRA 5.0.x, 4.4.x and 4.3.x.

Support for JIRA 4.2 is dropped starting with this version. The last working version for JIRA 4.2 is Structure 1.4.1. You can download older versions of Structure from Download Archive.

4. Installation

The plugin may be installed from the Plugin Exchange or from the Administration | Plugins menu. Further information is available in the Administrator's Guide.

5. Upgrading from a Previous Version

Migration to version 1.5 from version 1.4.x is pretty straightforward and does not require unusual actions. Structure Backup is recommended as a safety measure.

When upgrading from a version earlier than 1.4, please consult Upgrading section in all relevant Release Notes.
