[Celik Vedat]

Hi there,

is it possible not to show a issue (epic) in a kanban board, but still count in issue count in the boards columns?

Hi Vedat,

It is possible to hide Epics from a Kanban Board while still maintaining the issue count in the columns. In order to achieve this, you will want to use Quick Filters. 

You can create a Quick Filter to show all issues but Epics by using a JQL filter such as the following:

issuetype != Epic

When users click on this Quick Filter, they will see all issues but epics, and the issue count will remain the same.

or if you never want the epic then exclude in the Kanban board's filter itself.
