Issue View in Epic no Longer Visible

[Monica Morgan]

Does anyone know how to make an epic's parent issues visible in the epic? This morning any epic with +100 issues are no longer visible - this is putting major strain on large projects. 

The epic now shows that children are not visible but we do not use children issues only parent 

Here is the copy that shows where the issues were visible last week: 

"View child issues in search

The issue view can only display up to 100 child issues. You can still add and bulk edit them from here, but you'll have to view them in search and won't be able to include them in time tracking. Learn more about child issues"

[Pau Rotger]

I agree with all of you above. We are quite a big company struggling with this. It is super frustrating.

This change is incredibly frustrating and I am in shock that JIRA PMs allowed this to simply happen. Please please please please revert this change dear JIRA gods

[Eric Garner]

Same here. This problem is extremely frustrating and has been a huge impact on the way we use Jira.

[Cassie Utt]

Agreed - this is a major area that many of our team go to review the child items of epics. Many on my team are pretty upset about this change. 

[Nir Liran]

Honestly can't believe they just went ahead and disabled that. That's removing a major functionality out of the blue. 

[Gorazd Žagar]

They probably removed this due to the load the child issues rendering was imposing on their infrastructure. Anyway, removing this without even allowing you to override it is a pain in the ass.

[Anna Taibishlak]

This change is just beyond frustrating. This tool just lost its functionality and value for our teams, while prior to the Epic/Issues change we've been using Jira on a daily basis.

During the past week we really tried to deal with the change, but it's a big struggle. The entire team (more than 80 people) is frustrated.

I got an answer on my similar post: https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-questions/Can-we-disable-View-child-issues-in-search/qaq-p/1971370?utm_source=atlcomm&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=mentions_answer&utm_content=topic

It might solve the problem but it is quite expensive

Hello @Joshua P  @Cassie Utt  @gal.almog @Anna Taibishlak @Nir Liran JIRA has answered my Internal Support ticket with the following: 

"This situation is already tracked on the following Improvement request and gathering interested customers and I made sure to add your case internally to it:

I highly encourage you to add yourself as a watcher to follow-up on its progress and provide any feedback you might have on the comment section (make sure you're logged in to the system).
