Allow edit to the issue's description field
Added by Gal Cohen over 15 years ago.
Updated almost 15 years ago.
Description
After the creation of a new issue, it should be possible to edit the description of the issue.
OPEN ISSUE: It better be possible to edit the description only by the initiator of the issue, however, letting it to all users is fine also.
- Status changed from New to Resolved
this has been possible for years, see the « more » link when updating an issue.
You might want to open an other issue regarding usability issue with this link, a lot of people seem to miss this link.

This is documented in the Wiki though: RedmineIssues.

But nobody reads documentation :)
I've been using Redmine since 2007 (I think) and so I now know that the link is there, but there was a while after that part of the UI changed that I assumed the functionality had been lost (there used to be an "edit" button). I know exactly what Paul is talking about, and the reason why Gal has opened this issue - the functionality is not easily discoverable.

Where's that link?
Ah, I see! it's in the first fieldset heading on the Update page: "Change properties (more)".
Actually I like that a lot: it hides stuff that is rarely changed, while still making it available if needed in a logical place.
I've had a go at improving the Wiki text to make it clearer for people like me that skim-read documentation.
