List View and Kanban

Short answer

The Issues page is your triage board. Use the list for dense scanning and multi-column detail, or kanban for status workflow. Search by title, build an Add Filter stack (category, severity, screens, assignee, reported by, dates, status, release), see applied filters as tags, and click List Issues to refresh results. Create Issue sits beside List Issues so intake and triage stay on one surface.

Open Issues

From the main sidebar, open Issues. The default view is the list. Results reflect your project and any filters you last applied after clicking List Issues.

View modes: List and Kanban

Use the view control to flip between:

ModeBest for
ListScanning many issues, sorting/skimming metadata in a dense table
KanbanMoving work by status—drag cards across Open, In Progress, Fixed, and related columns

Kanban columns follow issue status. Cards show severity with a color bar. Archived and Duplicate columns stay hidden by default so the board stays focused on active work.

Issues kanban view

Updating status from kanban (or the issue sidebar) keeps list and board in sync—there is one underlying issue lifecycle.

A full-width title field filters by free-text match on the issue title. Combine it with the filter pane for precise triage (for example title contains “checkout” + severity Critical + status Open).

Advanced filtering

Click Add Filter to open a popover of filter dimensions. Most are multi-select; dates and release have structured presets.

FilterBehavior
CategoryBug category enum (single taxonomy used on the issue)
SeverityMulti-select severity levels
ScreensLimit to issues tagged to chosen screens / screen context
AssigneeMulti-select team members
Reported byHuman reporters and agents (for example ExploreChimp)
Reported onLast week, last month, or custom date range
Due dateOverdue, due next week, due next month, or custom (after / before a date)
StatusOpen, In Progress, Fixed, Ignored, Duplicate, Archived, …
ReleaseLatest releases as quick picks, or custom picker over all releases

Applied filters appear as closable tags. Close a tag to remove that filter. After changing filters, click List Issues to fetch the matching set—nothing is applied until you list.

Aging filingsReported on last month + Status Open

Create Issue from triage

Create Issue next to List Issues opens a thin modal for title only. Confirm to create (defaults: Bug, medium severity, Open) and jump to the full-page issue view to finish metadata, description, links, and attachments.

That keeps “queue a follow-up” one click away from filtering—no separate project board.

From row or card to detail

Click a list row or kanban card to open the issue page. Breadcrumb navigation returns you to Issues; your filters remain available when you come back and re-list.
