As a Jira admin, you may need to hide HTML elements such as links or buttons to prevent users from accessing a functionality. 

ソリューション

For each element we want to hide, we need it to have an ID. The element ID can be found as follows in Google Chrome: 

1. Right-click on the element 
2. Choose Inspect
3. Find the element you want to hide, see the screenshot below as an example:
   1. An element with an ID:  
      
   2. An element without an ID:
       
      
      

4. Once you have the HTML element's ID or tag/class, hide it by adding the following code snippets to the Jira announcement banner

   Please be mindful that tempering with modifying CSS layout in flight might cause Jira to become completely inaccessible to users; That is, the login page might stop operating properly, or certain page elements in Jira will no longer be accessible, such as for example not being able to access the Announcement banner configuration page to remove the faulty code. If that becomes the case please follow the below article to remove the announcement banner via a direct database update:

Using CSS

As an example, the code below will hide all links allowing users to change project roles or user to role assignments in all pages of Jira. Note the CSS below uses the element ID:

<style type="text/css">
#project-config-webpanel-summary-people {
    display: none;
}
#roles-add-users-button {
    display: none;
}
#view_project_roles {
    display: none;
}
</style>

If the element you need to hide doesn't have an ID, you can use the element tag in combination with one or more classes. For example, to hide the "Add customers" button from the Service Management portal, use:

<style type="text/css">
button.aui-button.js-invite-customers {
    display: none;
}
</style>

Notice, sometimes there's an additional css that can still overwrite your code and the tweak will not work; to prevent this you can try adding !important statement that will prevent further overwriting of css style with another css. If that becomes the case, the code will look like this:

<style type="text/css">
button.aui-button.js-invite-customers {
    display: none !important;
}
</style>

Using JavaScript

As an example, the code below will only execute if the page URL has /plugins/servlet/project-config/ and will hide the links allowing users to change project roles or user to role assignments.

<script type="text/javascript">
window.onload = function() {
  if(document.URL.indexOf("/plugins/servlet/project-config/") >= 0){ 
    // Hide left hand side link
    document.getElementById('view_project_roles').style.display = 'none';
    // Hide right hand side element
    document.getElementById('project-config-webpanel-summary-people').style.display = 'none';
  }
};
</script>
