Create Epic from Backlog
Hi!
I can create an issue of Epic issue type on the Backlog by pressing "C".
But I can't create the same Epic issue type from the "+" option on the Backlog.
There is no option of Epic on the dropdown.
What seems to be the problem?

Hi @Yulia Zhyliaieva ,
this is because the Epic creation button is on the Epics panel in the backlog, as you can see in my screenshot :
This is how you can quickly create an Epic in the backlog
Let me know if this helps,

Thanks, Alexis!
However, I purposefully switched off this option as you can see from the screen. For this specific project I want Epics to be created on the Backlog and seen as separate issues on the Kanban Board.
And it works if I use the hot key ("C"), but does not work in the other way. This means that JIRA allows to do so, but I am missing some setting.
