Sadly, no you cannot move the epic through the kanban or scrum board. You will need to manage the epic links by editing the issues.

Thank you.  So once I have an issue in progress I would move the EPIC to in progress and once all issues for that EPIC are complete I would move the EPIC to complete.  Does that sound like the normal process that others uses?  Does the EPIC show in my my scrum board?  I see it when viewing backlog and I can see issues from my epic in my current sprint board.  It appears that the epic itself does not show in a current sprint board even if all the issues related to the epic are combined in a sprint.  Am I missing something?
