Details

    Description

      If the only link on an issue is a link to a Confluence page or some other external page there is no option to copy this link when cloning the issue.

      To Reproduce

      1. Create an issue in JIRA.
      2. Link the issue to a Confluence page
      3. Clone the JIRA issue.

      Result
      In the Clone Issue dialog there is no checkbox to copy issue links.

      Expected
      The checkbox should be shown to copy issue links.

      Workaround

      1. On the issue you want to clone, add a link to a different JIRA issue (just don't use 'clones' or 'is cloned by' types)
      2. Now when you clone there is a checkbox to copy links. Check the box. The Confluence/external link will be copied along with the JIRA issue link.
      3. After cloning, remove the unwanted JIRA issue link.
