Trying to use one Board for multiple projects

[Rui Nian]

I spent the last 3 hours Googling this issue but it seems like all info is either outdated or doesnt work.

I have many projects (10+).  I want to have one sprint board to manage all projects.  I created a general Board in my "General" project.  Now, I am trying to move the backlogged tasks into the General project board.  On clicking a task from another project, I see I can allocate it to a particular sprint in a different project. 

I did this, the column "Sprint" now says the proper sprint.  But when I navigate to the sprint board, the task is not visible.  Wondering how I can solve this.

The post-function runs after the use commits the "create" transition.  If you're setting the reporter with a post-function, remove it from the "create" screen as whatever the user is going to put in is going to be overwritten with it.

Pre-filling the reporter field on the create screen, then allowing them to change it,  needs to happen as part of the screen rendering - you'll need javascript, or a Behaviour from the Script Runner add-on to do that.
