Description/Features
The Apache JIRAs need to show one message to non-logged in users and one message to logged in users. This is an improved HTML portlet that lets you do that - it also lets you use the JIRA introduction. In addition, the JIRA title, or a customised title, may be shown.
Release History
Version 1.0 was released on 19th of April 2007.
Screenshots
Anonymous users being shown the JIRA title and introduction.

Logged in users being shown a custom title and text. The title is optional in both cases.

Installing
Installing & Using

Once it's installed you can add it to your dashboard by selecting the Improved HTML portlet. Please follow the instructions from Atlassian for configuring your personal dashboard or the default dashboard.

The one difference I notice between other portlets is that the headings are not displayed in Bold. May be <B> tag should work.
Thanks.

As far as I can tell, headings are only bold in the JIRA l&f if they are links. Also putting a <b> tag in appears to work.
