Adding color custom field.

[Deleted user]

Is there any way to create a custom field with different color options? 

For example. 

• Excellent - Green 
• Moderate - Yellow
• Bad- Red

Hello Tawhid,

Are you using JIRA Server or Cloud?

If you are using JIRA Server, you can try the free add-on Jira Status Color or Color Custom Fields.

If you are using JIRA Cloud, I'm afraid that this is not possible at this moment, as you can see on this discussion:

You are welcome, Tawhid.

See solution in this link that uses standard emojis to produce standard RAG colors.

Just loving the workaround.

Thank you @Andrew Robinson , as well as @s3rg10bm  !

Hello everyone! If you're looking to add color to a custom field, using emojis is a great way to do this. You can easily insert emojis by pressing Win + ".' (or the period key) or by right-clicking and selecting "Emoji" to search for the emoji you want. This method works exceptionally well for enhancing your text. I hope this helps!

Status field (combo box): 
🟢Green
🟡Yellow
🔴Red

Hi everyone,

   This mentioned add-on to color code the fields is no long available, does anyone knows any other that can be used for that please?

Hi Bruno

I'm not aware of one but the emoji color code method worked for me. Do you need to use an add-on for some reason?

Thank you!
