Showing Extended Timestamp in the Created Column of the Issue Navigator
Information contained on this page is considered to be a customization of the installation and is out of scope for Atlassian Support. Please ensure to take a backup of your system before making any changes.
This document describes how to modify the Created date field in the Issue Navigator to include the time. By default, the column view of the field hard-codes the rendering format to the locale specific "Day" format.
For JIRA 4.3 and Later
Edit the file JIRA_INSTALL_DIR/atlassian-jira/WEB-INF/classes/templates/jira/issue/field/date-columnview.vm:
Change:
#if ($value) <span title="${title}"><time datetime="${iso8601}">${value}</time></span> #else #endto:
#if ($value) <span title="${title}"><time datetime="${iso8601}">${title}</time></span> #else #endNote that you are simply changing "${value}" to become "${title}"
Procedure for JIRA 4.2 and Before
Edit the file JIRA_INSTALL_DIR/atlassian-jira/WEB-INF/classes/templates/jira/issue/field/created-columnview.vm to always use the extended formatDMYHMS rather than formatDMY.
For example, the following macro fragment should be changed:
#if ($created)
#if (${displayParams.excel_view})
$outlookDateManager.getOutlookDate($authcontext.getLocale()).formatDMYHMS($created)
#else
$outlookDateManager.getOutlookDate($authcontext.getLocale()).formatDMY($created)
#end
#else
#end
#if ($created)
$outlookDateManager.getOutlookDate($authcontext.getLocale()).formatDMYHMS($created)
#else
#end
