      Summary

      Currently the 'Configure fields' configuration on the create/edit issue screen is a global configuration (on the user end). If a user hides field A on project 1, field A will be hidden as well on project 2.

      Changing the feature to be project specific will eliminate problems where user gets 'required field' error but they forgot that they have actually hidden the field. Since the 'Configure fields' button is not exactly very visible, it's pretty common for users to forget that it exist or they have actually hidden some fields.

            Agree!

            The pain point is that different projects may require different fields, and you dont want to show them all, when some projects may only require a few.

            It currently leads to decision fatigue, etc. Project specific fields for the "Create issue" screen would be great.
