Hello,

I have the problem, that I cannot change the colors of my cards in my Rapid Board. I changed the colors in the themes under "Administration > GreenHopper > Project Templates" and under "Agile > Planning Board > Configure" but nothing works - I guess this are the settings for the "old" boards. How can I change the colors for my Rapid Board cards? They remain in the colors the original Default theme had.

Thanks,

Tobias Sarnowski

A quick update for card colours, the issue https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/GHS-1261 has now been resolved and will be available in GreenHopper 6.0.2.

Cards can be coloured by issue type (default), priority, assignee or using JIRA Query Language.

Hi Tobias,

There is currently no way to edit the colours in the Rapid Board, as you note the configuration for the other boards does not apply.

I would like to see a solution that allows colours to be chosen for issue-type and further flexibility as well.

Please vote or comment on the following issue.

https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/GHS-3679

Thanks

Martin

Can you explain why the issues have different colors on the left hand side? My issues are all of the same type, same priority, and same status, but some are green on the left, some are blue, and same are red.

It was the Rapid Boards, but on further inspection the issues were of different types. Sorry, guess I should have deleted that comment. Looking forward to the new color options though!
