why can't i see some of my watched issues

Question

I have a "watched issues" gadget on my dashboard.  However it is only showing issues from a subset of projects.  How can I fix that?

When I go to the issue itself (eg Projects/Inbox/Issue-611) I am listed as watching the issue.

When I go to the "Your Work" tab I can see it in the "viewed" list

Hi,

I have a similar problem.

User is watching 11 issues (unresolved). But in dashboard gadget with custom queries/filters as

resolution = Unresolved and watcher = currentUser() , it only shows 2 issues...

User has correct permissions.

the basic gadget uses this logic:

issue in watchedIssues() AND resolution = EMPTY order by watchers desc.

Theoretically, this should display all issues with anyone watching it across projects.  But it may provide too much or too little information.

you could build a query and show the filter results.  I'm a big fan of custom queries/filters to find what you want.

watcher = currentUser()

you might add order by key or order by project if you add that column to see them by project.

One thing to make sure is that you have the correct permissions in those other projects.  if you can't check it, you may need to ask your admin.
