How to have sub-tasks link to parent issues?

Emad Jacob Maroun July 16, 2014

Hello,

This is about Jira Agiles Kanban Board functionality.

In the KanBan Boards, when one is not using the ranking system, sub-task show the name of their parent issue right above them in a narrow gray box. Is there a way to make that box a link so that - if clicked - the parent issue will be displayed in the detailed view on the right of the board?

Currently, the problem is that to find the parent issue of a give sub-task, we have to enter the searching page to search for the parent task manually.

Here is an image that explains:

in case it does not work, here is the same:

I realize that if i go into the issue viewer i will see the "path" of the sub-task, and from there find the parent, but i would like to be able to peek at the parent from the kanban board directly without leaving.

Turning the text into a link as Emad suggested seems like it would be very simple to implement. Please do this :)
