The upcoming version of YouTrack (aka YouTrack Daring) introduces the bookmarklet, a little tool for your browser to submit new issues with just one click. No need to open YouTrack to create an issue, no need to even switch between browser tabs or windows.
Bookmarklet supports all most important options of the standard Create New Issue dialog.
To get the bookmarklet, the next time you visit the issue tracker do the following:
There you have it. Now click the button, specify issue attributes, take and attach screenshots (Ctrl+Alt+S) or attach files (Ctrl+Alt+A). Another click, and the issue submitted. Just like that.
Have a nice day and track with pleasure!

Hello, everyone! Today we have two major news for you.
First, we have published the new EAP build (build #664) for YouTrack Daring. You probably already know that if you follow us on twitter. What you don’t know yet is that with this EAP build we’ve completed general development of custom fields. All planned functionality has been implemented, and now we’re polishing details. Check back soon for a detailed post on custom fields.
As for the EAP, check the Release notes, download the build, give a try to all new features and feel free to post your feedback and questions on our forum and issue tracker.
Moving on to the second item we’ve got for you today: With today’s EAP we announce a feature freeze for YouTrack Daring. We’re now focused solely on enhancing, improving, testing and fixing. The feature freeze means we’re on the homestretch to release the new version, so stay tuned for updates!
Track with pleasure!

What happened. JetBrains YouTrack instance at youtrack.jetbrains.net experienced an outage yesterday, on Friday, March 5, that resulted in loss of YouTrack database updates that were made from 5:00 GMT to approximately 21:00 GMT on March 5.

YouTrack has been out of service for several hours since then, and was restored at 7:00 GMT on March 6 from a database backup as of 5:00 GMT, March 5. We’re trying to find out what caused the problem and it currently seems like a hardware failure.
