How do I enable the Kanban backlog?

Avrohom Yisroel Silver

I have set up a project using the team-based Kanban template, and have added epics and issues.

I would like to enable the backlog, as I want to start organising the issues into releases.

I saw this article, however it doesn't relate to what I see on the screen.

I clicked the ... link, which took me to the settings, with the "Columns and statuses" link selected. According to that article, "The Column settings page displays, with the Kanban Backlog as the leftmost column." I don't see a Kanban column...

Anyone any idea what I'm doing wrong? How do I enable the backlog?

Thanks

Duh, silly me. I have a team-based project, so needed to go to the project settings to enable the backlog

Hello @Avrohom Yisroel Silver ~ in order to enable the Kanban backlog, you need to drag and drop one of the Status cards to the Unassigned statuses section (the left portion of your screen shot). This is typically the initial create status -- "To Do" in your case. So click the "To Do" status card currently mapped to your "To Do" column and drag it to the Unassigned statuses section. Then click the "back to board" button and you should see the backlog link in the left nav.

Hi @Avrohom Yisroel Silver ,

Please mark one of the Answers as Accepted, there isn't an option to delete a Community question :-P

I would suggest marking your own answer as Accepted if this solved your main question.
