Need a plugin to view Epics by fixVersion (yearly quarters) that update on drag

[Paul Wallace]

Hi, I need a Confluence view of all my Epics, organised by fixVersion which are quarters (Q1, Q2 etc). When I drag the Epic from from quarter to another the fixVersion is updated in the Epic. I don't want the Epic to calculate it's own fixVersion or position on the view according to the status the child Stories/Tasks e.g. Roadmaps/Portfolio. 

Thanks for your help.

Hello there @Paul Wallace! I can see how a feature like that would be beneficial. I would like to point out that our Jira Issues macro might be able to help you out with this: 

Insert the Jira issues macro

However, I would like to better understand your needs. Here we go:

1. How would that view look like?
2. Do you need to drag and drop issues to order them?

Let us hear from you!

Hi. To describe what I need I have found and and trialing the Comala Canvas add -on. My basic requirements are to:

• Show Issues on a board with columns by field e.g. Fix Version
• When I drag the stories around to different columns the Fix Version (or what ever field I am using to organise the Issues) is updated. 

The above product does this very well and even supports a matrix view where I can show columns and rows by various Jira fields. 

However there is only one real problem. A column only supports one Jira issues horizontally, meaning if I have a lot of issues my column can get very long and the board unwieldy. It also doesn't scroll so if I have say 15 columns the Jira Issue "cards" on the board shrink to fit in to one screen. Not good on a laptop say. 

Hope that's clear. Thanks for your input.

Good to hear that you were able to find a software that does what you need. I noticed that you linked to a Jira app.

Is your current need inside Jira or in Confluence?

For suggestions on the app you have found, the best course of action would be to contact Comala directly:
