Blocker Status for Jira
See exactly what is blocking your issues before your standup
Overview
Blocked issues kill sprint velocity, and the worst part is they are often invisible until someone asks in standup. Blocker Status adds a dedicated panel to every issue that maps out the full blocking relationship at a glance — what is blocking this issue, what this issue is blocking, and whether those linked issues are still open or already resolved. No more chasing links across multiple tabs or digging through issue descriptions to figure out if a blocker is still relevant. Everything you need to unblock a ticket is right there on the panel.
Features
- Issue panel showing all blocking and blocked-by relationships in one view
- Resolution status badges so you can see at a glance if a blocker is still active or already resolved
- Assignee display for each linked issue so you know exactly who to chase
- Collapsible section for issues this ticket is blocking, keeping the panel clean when not needed
- Dynamic status banner that changes based on whether any active blockers remain
- Read-only and lightweight — no configuration required, works on every issue automatically
