Question about Linking Issues as well as Post Function

Issue #779 resolved
MAG-II created an issue

Hello Fidel -

I have encountered (yet) another problem with my JIRA workflow.

I have 2 Issue Types (2 workflows). When each Issue is at a certain point of their workflows, I want to link the 2 Issues. I am able to do so with an Issue Linker Field add-on.

The Issue link happens on a screen that I added to the Transition. When I click Fill Position, I can link the Issues.

What I want to happen is that when I link the 2 Issues, I want the other Issue (that has just been linked) to automatically advance one step in its workflow.

So all in one Transition I want to link 2 Issues, as well as the other Issue to Transition in one step. Is it possible for all of these things to happen at once? Attached are the screens of my configurations

    Here is the Transition screen when I link the Issues -

    This is the Issue that I want to automatically Transition after the link -

    And here are my post function configurations -

    Also for further reference, here is the Status that I want my Issue to be automatically Transitioned to -

    I feel as though the problem may be that it's not possible for all of these things to happen in one Transition. Any insight you may have is so much appreciated. Thanks.

    Wow, I just solved my own problem. I figured out that if I put the Post Function at the very bottom of the list then it works. I am very sorry to trouble you (again).

    You've always been so good with helping me through my JIRA problems. I am very grateful to have purchased your add-on.
