"Old" Backlog View

[Magdalena Mileva]

Hi all, there was a pop up message with the new backlog view proposal. I miss-clicked "I got it" and it switched it to the new view - I do not even see the description of the issues. Does anybody know how to revert this back to normal or how to manage the look?

Thank you in advance!

Here is the message I clicked:

That doesn’t appear to be an option to opt in. Rather it is just an FYI that things have changed.

to be honest I’m not sure how different this is until I play with it. Can you still add fields to the cards?

[Magdalena Mileva]

Hi again @Jack Brickey , 

I was able to find an instance, where this message was not clicked, so yeah it's only some kind of info message. 

However, I made a research and it seems that the only change is the position of the key. Before, it has been in front of the summary and now is at the end. I am not sure when the change was implemented (which release), but it's related to new Kanban Board view.

[Magdalena Mileva]

@Jack Brickey yes, you are able to go to board settings and make a customisation from the Issue detail View.

[Jack Brickey]

So what is really different in the new view? I’m second guessing things here. For example here is what I see on one project…

@Jack Brickey No screenshot is attached :) 

[Jack Brickey]

Yes because of a very frustrating intermittent Community bug. I will add when it works again.

[Magdalena Mileva]

Well, I guess that only the Kanban boards are affected with the new look. The only difference I got is the key position. 

Here is the link, where you go when you click on "Learn more": https://support.atlassian.com/jira-work-management/docs/what-is-the-new-jira-issue-view/

[Jack Brickey]

Yes but that really isn’t “new”. That has been rolling out for at least 9mo.

so I’m now thinking that there isn’t anything really new here from my perspective.

[Jack Brickey]

Can you share a screenshot of what you are seeing in this new view?

[Magdalena Mileva]

@Jack Brickey Here it is: 

[Jack Brickey]

Interesting it appears in the new view they've gone to a single line with an arrow that scrolls to the right is that correct?

[Magdalena Mileva]

@Jack Brickey the arrow refers to the priority But when you click on any issue, the look is this one: 

However, I have read all news and release notes, couldn't find how to revert it or manage it. If I can't get the previous look, I want to customize this one and make it as closely as possible to the "old" look.  

[Jack Brickey]

it is new to me. I also checked the release notes and couldn't find anything. I have posted something in the slack channel with others to see if anyone else has any ideas.

@Jack Brickey really thank you! Just do not click the message above the backlog :D "I got it" or something like this means use the new view :(
