How to modify the default fields in Jira single issue

[adrianoatl]

Is there a way to modify the default fields in a Jira single issue when displayed on Confluence? Right now it displays by default "issue type", "key" and "status", with the option to display or not "summary":

But what I'd like is, using a Jira single issue, display "issue type" + "key" + "due" + "status". What I do not want is the Jira issue table format as it's big and bulky to fit in a 100-line table, one issue per line.

Can that be achieved?

@adrianoatl, In short - No. :(  You would need to modify the Jira Issue Macro or write your own.

Thanks for the input, Peter. How do I modify the Jira Issue Macro? If you have a pointer to get me started, I'll be very happy to give it a try.

You would need to modify the .jar file file for the macro.  This is pretty involved and since I am not a developer there's not much more I can help with.  I recommend not doing this as it could cause problems when trying to upgrade.

I see... going down that road it is something I do no want to do either. I'm guessing now that writing my own Jira Macro will be the same thing...

Thanks for your help, Peter.

No problem, I looked into this type of thing a while back and came to the same conclusion.

Adriano, you noted "Right now it displays by default "issue type", "key" and "status", with the option to display or not "summary".  Where is this option?  I an trying to display JUST the Key and Status, so if this is achievable, can you tell me how?  (right now it shows, type, key, summary, status)
