01The problem

Log Work shouldn't mean re-typing the same three fields.

Most worklog entries share the same Stage, Description, and Fix Versions. Typing them out by hand, issue after issue, is pure friction.

Without Quick Logger
  • Stage of Introduction

    Re-typed by hand, on every single worklog entry.

  • Description

    Copy-pasted from the last entry, if you remember to.

  • Fix Versions

    Re-picked from a long dropdown, every time.

With Quick Logger
  • Stage of Introduction

    Filled instantly from your saved default.

  • Description

    Filled instantly, editable if this entry differs.

  • Fix Versions

    All configured versions selected in one click.

02Features

Everything Log Work needs, nothing it doesn't.

Quick Logger stays out of the way until the dialog opens — then it makes filling the form a single, deliberate click.

/01

Detects the real form

Watches the DOM with a MutationObserver and locates Jira's own Log Work dialog by label text — not brittle CSS classes — so it survives Jira version and theme differences.

/02

One-click fill

Stage of Introduction, Description, and Fix Versions are filled the moment you click Fill Jira Log. You only ever type Time Spent.

/03

Never touches submission

The extension only fills fields — Jira's own validation and submit flow are untouched, so a worklog is created exactly like it always was.

/04

Multi-value Fix Versions

Configure several Fix Versions once; every one of them is selected automatically, whether Jira renders a native select or a chip-based picker.

/05

Survives re-renders

Re-runs detection on every DOM mutation, so it keeps working across issue navigation, modal close/reopen, and re-renders — no page reload needed.

/06

Toggle anytime

Turn auto-fill on or off from the toolbar popup in one click, and review your saved defaults at a glance before you open Log Work.

03How it works

From open dialog to logged work in seconds.

Four steps. No configuration beyond your defaults. Works wherever Jira renders the Log Work dialog.

1

Open Log Work

Quick Logger detects Jira's own Log Work dialog the moment it opens — inline, on a transition, or on the issue view.

2

Set your defaults once

Open the popup, click Settings, and save the Stage, Description, and Fix Versions you use most.

3

Click Fill Jira Log

A small panel appears inside the dialog. One click fills all three fields, leaving Time Spent for you to type.

4

Submit as normal

The worklog is created exactly like it always was — the extension never replaces or reimplements Jira's own form.

04The fields

Three defaults. Set once, filled every time.

Configure them in Settings and every Log Work entry starts pre-filled — you only ever adjust what's different this time.

05FAQ

Answers, before you ask.

Still curious? Open an issue on the repo and we'll get back to you.

It's built to survive that. Fields are matched by label text, not CSS classes, so it holds up across Jira version and theme differences. If a field doesn't populate on your instance, the selectors can be adjusted.

No. Your defaults live only in chrome.storage.sync, synced across your own Chrome profile via your Google account. No network requests, no analytics, no external servers.

No. Quick Logger only fills Stage of Introduction, Description, and Fix Versions. Time Spent, validation, and submission are entirely Jira's own — untouched.

Yes. Enter them comma-separated in Settings, and every one gets selected automatically — whether Jira renders a native select or a chip-based multi-select picker.

Yes. Toggle auto-fill from the toolbar popup — the panel stops appearing until you turn it back on.
