Issues not showing in Kanban

Question

I have created a Workflow for use on a Planning Board for "Idea" issue types.

I have created a Sprint board; they show up in the backlog and on the board with no problem.

I have created a Kanban board (my preference for use as a planning board) but the issues will not show up, no matter what I try and do.

They appear in the "ISSUES" list, but are not available on the Kanplan Backlog or in the first column on the Kanban board. I have no idea why.

Does a Kanban board not work with bespoke workflows?

PLEASE HELP!

If you only want idea issuetype then change your main board filter to be something like...

project = xxx AND issuetype = idea

Your reply has given me the answer, thank you!

Sub filter was set to "fixVersion in unreleasedVersions() OR fixVersion is EMPTY"

I removed this and it now shows items.

I'm still confused as to why I see anything other than IDEAS in the Kanban Backlog if the Workflow I've applied is only associated with Issue Type "IDEAS" ?

I suppose as a fudge I can apply a sub filter of issue type "IDEAS" ?

The goal is to use Kandan for Planning, specification and design sign off, and then the, Sprint/Scrum for Development. The challenge is the Issue type; in so far as the only solution I can come up with is to create new Issues as "Story Ideas" and then when they're sign off, change the "Story Idea" to a regular story ?!

Can you share the board filter for Kanban board as well as the column config screen? Those are the first places to look.
