How to manage multiple projects with one NextGen board?

Conor
September 10, 2019

I'm part of a team of 4 which takes on projects of varying scales at the same time (some that last a couple of days, others that last months).

We've started managing all of our projects using a single board, but both the board and backlog become bloated pretty quickly. It's also inconvenient when we want to invite stakeholders, etc to view our progress on a particular project because we have to invite them to one board which has ALL of our projects on.

Can somebody help with the following questions?

  • Is there any way to effectively manage multiple projects using a single NextGen board? I know in Jira you can set up a board with different filters to bring in other project issues, but I can't see anything which replicates that in NextGen.
  • How would people recommend doing this in NextGen?
  • Is it better to just use a single board for each project?

The new email sent to the user will be picked up by JIRA , delete the email and JIRA will add the content of the mail as an comment to the existing ticket. It's always a better idea to use a dedicated mail account (not a user account ) for these purposes.

There are some plugins out there using which you might be able to block some mails containing some regex from creating issues in JIRA but why complicate things, why not just have a dedicated email address.
