Change Epic/Parent option missing from Classic Projects

[Dan H]

So today from one of our Classic Projects, I went to go change the Epic for a User Story from the ticket view itself, and found this option is no longer available!

What happened?

Missing from drop-down menu too...

Whereas below is from one of our Next-Gen Projects which has this option available completely fine...

And also in drop-down menu it's present...

Hi Dan,

Have you tried changing the epic link field? It's also possible that it's hidden from the view/edit screen.

Thank you, this seemed to have gotten removed from our view for a bunch of Issue Types. I've added it back in now and all good.

Strange how there's lack of consistency between Classic Projects ("Epic Link") and Next-Gen Projects ("Change Epic/Parent") though in the way these are handled, especially when BOTH now use the new issue view.
