How do you make due dates visible on next gen boards?

With older style boards, you could choose Board settings and enable due date to be shown on stories as you looked through the board.  How do you this with next gen projects, as I do not seam to have access to board settings?

Hi Ian

click on Project settings, then clikc on Issue types and select the relevant issuetype (probably Story). On the right hand side, you should see the fields that aren't yet shwoing, and Due date should be there. Drag and drop it to the position in the list you'd like to see it, then click Save changes

Thanks Warren, that does make the due data available on the story itself, however what I am looking for is the due date to be displayed on each of the stories in the list on the board

For example : I have a board with stories listed in an "in progress" column. If I scan down that column I would like to see the due date on each story and not just when I double click on the story.

In Progress

This is a story I need to do

Due date : Dec 5/18

This was something I could do prior to next-gen projects/boards through board settings on the "..." menu, but can't seem to do it now

Thanks
Ian

Hi Ian

Yes sadly it doesn't look like that is possible at the moment. On the plus side, Atlassian are constantly adding new features and improvements to the Next-Gen projects, so keep a lookout for what's new

Where can we vote for this feature to be added? Visibility of due dates on the board for each issue is kind of key to be able to ensure we meet deadlines. Any news when this will be implemented?

I have the same Q, would love to upvote this feature.

Same! upvote! due dates are only like 10% more useful as a standalone custom field if they are only visible in the issue detail view. Getting them visible on the board is where 90% of the value of due dates comes in.

Continually amazed at how the Atlassian coding team remove key features from old builds in "next gen" builds without providing the customisability for end-users to tweak. How can the "due date" visibility of issues be not currently visible in a KanBan Board setup? Quite frustrating.

It would be great to get this feature back and working on the next gen project.

Upvote!

Based on what I'm seeing, the closest "story" in the task-list would be https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JSWCLOUD-17331. Watch/upvote that one I guess.

If it helps for now, Add it as a label, but it sucks that we don't have this feature

Would like this too.  The alternative I'm using at the moment is a filter (query = project in (ARC) AND status != Done AND issuetype in (Bug, Story, Task) ORDER BY duedate ASC), which I've then added to a dashboard using the 'filter results' gadget.  Gives you a nice list of all the issues on your project, sorted by duedate.  Leave out the issuetype bit of the query if you want to include epics or other issue types.  You can add whichever fields you want to see on the dashboard.  See screenshot below - hope it helps

I agree, just uncovered this is missing along side a host of other useful features from Classic.  My list just keeps growing!  this issue @Josh Thompson you cited:  https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JSWCLOUD-17331 is only showing status as "open" - wonder what that means?  What it doesn't mean is that it's being worked on I'd assume...
