Add an functionality to create project labels and issue enumeration custom fields on-the-fly (OD-1652)

narandill opened 2 years ago

Hi Robin,

Could you add a new functionality to create a labels for any project on the fly in the project General Settings:

Maybe instead of forcing user to navigate to Labels Management we could have there an option to create a new label on the fly when we hit Enter?

Same question with the custom fields for issues with type of enumeration - is it possible to detect that and also allow to extend that enum on the fly from the issue editor?

Best regards!

The problem is that labels and custom fields are global (for sake of easily constructing the query, and transition rules). Only administrators (with site responsibility) can add new items. It can easily be messed up if non-admins are allowed to add items on the fly.

Could we take the permissions into consideration and allow that functionality only for admins?

This is closed due to added complexity to manage custom field/label color, condition etc.

I know this is unplanned, but in case it matters, I'd like to "vote" for implementing repository-specific control of issue fields

Thank you :)

Edit: My apologies, I just realized the "Applicable Projects" field is used for that
