Editing field values
Repeating Issues app allow to edit system and custom field values when setup repeating actions. To edit custom fields please clicking on "Choose fields to edit..." button on the repeating issue form - this will show fields that can be edited for given issue type.
Only fields added to create screens associated with given issue type will be available for edition. For more details how to create and configure custom fields please check Jira documentation.
All fields will have simple form input where static value or dynamic value can be provided - see Velocity Template Language in Repeating Issues app.
Special velocity variable for custom field
Each custom field has special variable $this available in velocity context. This is just the current field id (e.g. 'custom field_100001') and this can be used e.g. together with Issue.getCustomField(<fieldId>) method.
