Table isn't showing total number of issues

Question

I used to be able to set the maximum number of issues for Display in a table, and beneath the table on the Confluence page, it would display "2 out of 12", or whatever. It would indicate that there were more issues being returned by the filter than just those displayed.  That is no longer the case. All of a sudden, it just says "2 issues".

Can anyone help?

Hi @Denise McDonald ,

So, I've just tested this (by using Jira legacy macro) and it seems it's now displaying a total number of items/issues in the search query.

Although I think I've tested this a couple of days ago and that it didn't display that info.

Can you maybe check again and see if you're still experiencing this issue?

Hi. Thank you for your response. I don't think I'm using the "work items macro" you mentioned. I've attached 3 screenshots. I set up a sample table to show what's happening. I created 3 sample cards and used a very simple filter to display all three items (key=xxx or key=xxx, etc.). Then I expanded the "Display" link and specified that I only wanted to see 2 of the 3 items. That is exactly what is being displayed, but the problem is where it says "2 issues" next to "Refresh" at the bottom of the table.  Previously, it would have displayed "2 issues out of 3".  I found it helpful when I wanted to know how many issues were in a table even if theyweren't being displayed. I am the QA Lead of my group, and I sometimes choose to filter out issues that have a certain status, but I still want to know that they exist - I'm just choosing to not display them. Does that make sense?
