Markdown for Jira has no administration screen and no project settings. Everything you can change sits in the Markdown panel, the editor or the Capable Markdown page, and this is the complete list.

#Every setting

Setting

Level

What it does

Sort tabs

Per issue. Shared by everyone who opens it.

Orders the panel's tabs newest first or A to Z.

Getting started / List view

Per browser

Chooses what the Capable Markdown page shows. Clicking View markdown stops Getting started opening first in that browser.

Project filter

Not saved

Limits the Capable Markdown list to the projects you pick, until you leave the page.

View / Edit (editor mode)

Current editor only

Switches an existing document between editing and a read-only preview.

Title

Per document

Up to 50 characters. Becomes the attachment's filename, with .md added.

#A few things worth knowing

  • There are no administration or project settings. Who can add, edit and delete documents follows Jira's attachment permissions.

  • The sort order is saved on the issue, so changing it changes it for everyone who opens that issue.

  • Getting started is remembered per browser, so it comes back in a new browser or after you clear site data.

The complete list, in one table.
