Timeline and issues without Epic

unknown

Why does the task/bug with no Epic don't reflect on timeline?

Here are the issues with no Epic I want to see in the Timeline:

Here is the Timeline with no issues I wanted to see:

Is it because of the "Epic concept"?

Timeline is the Epic tool only, is it so?

There are some limitations when it comes to project/board timelines. As per article Project timeline limits in Jira

Child issues without a parent won’t be shown on your timeline.

Here's a feature suggestion on this: JSWCLOUD-25744 Display standard issues without any parent on the timeline.

The other solution would be to use Jira Plans, but that feature only comes with Premium and Enterprise plans.

Hope this helps.

Cheers,
Tom

No, that is not possible in a basic timeline in a project.

Only issues under an epic are displayed there.

So, to make your task/bugs appear, either add them to the epic that they belong to or consider adding a separate epic for all your task/bugs.

I ran into the same issue, so I solved it by creating a plugin that visualizes Epic progress and how the team’s focus is distributed.

It also includes a separate row for tasks that aren’t part of any Epic but still take up time — so nothing gets lost in the process. If that’s something that could help, feel free to check it out:
