After upgrade to 5.0, new issues are created in a lightbox. For some use cases, this is not an optimal configuration.

Cause

For JIRA 5.0, many User Interface improvements were made. Among those is a pretty new lightbox that allows the user to completely enter an issue without loading a new page. Unfortunately, this is not a great solution for a small subset of users. For these users, the workarounds below may be helpful.

Workaround

Try this, borrowed from Answers:

You can do it by adding this snippet in the Announcement banner!

<script type="text/javascript">
AJS.$("#create_link").removeClass("create-issue");
</script>

 

Or, try this:

Warning!

Be sure to back up your database prior to making any modifications!!

The first two lines create the property and then fill it with the 'false' value. The third line verifies it is present and filled. 

insert into propertyentry values (99999,'jira.properties',1,'jira.plugin.state-.com.atlassian.jira.jira-quick-edit-plugin:quick-create-issue',5);
insert into propertystring values (99999,'false');

select * from propertyentry e join propertystring s on e.id=s.id where e.property_key like '%state%';
