New Board Columns showing Blue not Yellow

Brian Schaeffer May 21, 2018

We are using JIRA v7.8.0 on premise.

This project does not allow for Simple Workflow, so I know that could factor into the question.

This question is for setting up a Scrum board used exclusively for one project.

In the JIRA documentation it is stated that all new columns added in the board configuration view should be added as "In Progress" or Yellow.

The experience I am having is that all new columns are showing up as "To Do" or Blue.

How do I get the new columns to be Yellow/In Progress?

It seems like a simple thing but is not working as I believe the documentation states.

I tested in our Dev and Prod environments and all new columns are always Blue/To Do.

Hi @Brian Schaeffer

The color of the state corresponds to the configuration of the system
