I believe that my setup is correct in regards to having the issue type 'bug' associated with the field 'story points'. My project is also using the correct configuration (default) and the story point field appears to also be linked to the right screen.
The reply from Karie in a similar question seemed to explain it best (found here: https://answers.atlassian.com/questions/25224)
However - when I go and edit an existing issue (type of bug) or create new, the story points field is still not presenting.
I need to be able to track bugs (actually use the 'bug' type for issue) as well as assign story points to it so we can track velocity / sprint burndown / release burndown/ appropriately.
See screenshots below. What am I missing?
