custom field doesn't display on card

[Diane Kramer]

I created a custom field called Reviewer that allows a list of users to be assigned. It's working fine in the issue screen, but I want the reviewer to appear on the card in the sprint view so we can easily see who the reviewer is for an issue. I tried to add my custom field to the card using the card layout screen in the board settings but it doesn't show up. I can see other fields that I add in the same way, but the reviewer field doesn't display at all.

Is Reviewer a user-picker field? Are you saying that you find the “reviewer“ field in the list of options and select it but nothing appears?

[Diane Kramer]

Yes and yes. Reviewer is a user-picker field that allows multiple people to be selected. And yes, I find the reviewer field in the list of options but when I add it nothing appears.

And the field definitely contains a value? Is it remotely possible that there’s more than one reviewer custom field. Just grasping at straws at this point. I don’t really have a user pick her custom field on my test project but I checked with various other user paper feels like reporter assignee etc. and they all work. Can you check and see if other field show up such as reporter?

[Diane Kramer]

Yes, the field definitely contains a value, and yes, reporter shows up.

Strange, after adding reporter, the reviewer field started showing up! Not sure what's up with that, but it appears to be working now. Yay.
