This enhancement will reduce the number of clicks to add worklog via the "Add Worklog" screen. Thank you!

Hi @oualid-code , from which screen do you see 12AM as default? In add worklog popup I see current time is only displayed. I am not sure where else you see 12AM as default time. Please provide some snapshots or steps to reproduce.

Hi @shridhar-tl , I can help on this one.

Default 12:00am happens if you right click on a day and add an worklog from it. For e.g. from the Daywise worklog:

Thank you @casper-81.

Hi @shridhar-tl,

Default 12:00am appears also when trying to add worklog in the "Worklog Report" screen:

Thank you and regards,

Thank you @oualid-code and @casper-81 for providing more information, It was intentionally done so from both those modules because you can log work for any date from those modules. Hence logging for current time did not really made sense there.

Also in most of the use cases, worklog would be added only after the task is completed or at the end of the day, so you would need to change the time to past in most of the use cases.

However, if you think it is helping on some cases, implementing this change is not making anything worse. So will have a look at it and implement it ASAP.

In upcoming version (v2.58) of JA, by default, permission to access Cloud instance of Jira would be added. This would let the users to integrate with Cloud instance of Jira without prompting for permission at the time of integration. Hence for Chrome users, once the extension gets updated, it would get disabled due to change in permission. You can enable it again from Extensions page. However, for Firefox and Edge, extension already have access to all the sites (though it doesn't really need) which would be narrowed down only to atlassian.net which would be a security improvement.
