How to (re-)add the "Status" column to issue overview

Stefan Haas

Recently all my columns disappeared from my all issues list. I could recover most of them, except the "Status" colum. Once I try to add a column and search for "Status" I get all kind of partial matches (ordered alphabetically), but "Status" itself is in the non-displayed 29 entries behind the listed ones. As I can't select the right checkbox, it won't be added.

Ah, you have massive "fielditis" then.

The workaround for this particular symptom of fielditis is to add columns from the list.  When you add one, it removes it from the selection list, making room for another entry from the non-displayed ones to come on to the list.  Add columns until you get the status you need on the list, then remove the extra columns you didn't really want.  Not ideal, but it'll do the job.  (The "right" answer is to fix your fielditis - you really shouldn't have many fields called "status")
