Hi,

I've created a Confluence database. I've setup a board view using one of the tag fields ('Status'), so that each column of the board represents a status the entry can be in. Most entries (right now over 50) are currently in an 'in progress' status. If I view the database in the table layout and filter for those with 'In Progress' tag, it returns all relevant entries, however in a board layout it only shows 17 entries. 

Is there a limit that can be displayed in Confluence databases? How can I work around this issue?

Thanks!

EDIT: I've noticed the number increases if I zoom out in browser and decreases zooming in. How can I always show all entries?

Hi @Tim_Klein ,

just curious, are you using the database board view as a kind of lightweight kanban to track tasks or content workflows? I’m wondering what led you to go with a Confluence database instead of something like a Jira board for this use case.

Would love to understand your scenario better — what sort of entries are you managing in this “In Progress” column (tasks, pages, deliverables, …)?

Thanks!

This is part of a customer database with customer metadata and other key information. For this one view, this mimics a lightweight kanban, but mostly from a 'reporting' perspective rather than project management.
