In Agile projects at times requirements are periodical and come in a specific format. The default story interface is a free flow text and do not allow customizations. Custom field’s options from JIRA enable us to achieve this task. Detailed instructions are here:

Hence for a web application or a web page now I can add fields like:
Page Title:
Layout template: (multicolumn/single column/grid) etc..
A sub-task module further simplifies task by adding multiple pages where now each page can be specified with multiple custom fields.
