Hello all,

When viewing an issue list, I'm trying to enable the checkboxes that appear as the leftmost column, so I'm able to select particular issues for bulk change.

How do I turn on those checkboxes?

Which screen are you actually on?

The Advanced Filter screen is used to search for the issues. You must then select the Bulk Change option from the ... button in the upper right.

On the first Bulk Change screen is where the checkboxes should appear.

If you get that far and are not seeing the check boxes there are two things to check.

1. Does it behave the same in a different browser?

2. Do you have the Make Bulk Changes permission in Global Permissions (Settings > System > Global Permissions)?
