Gadgets - Filters/Columns + Me Mentioned
for Jira Data Center
Introduction
This app/add-on for Jira Data Centers features two gadgets for Jira Dashboards:
1. Filters/Columns (w. sorting)
2. Me Mentioned.
Filters/Columns is an advanced version of the standard Filters gadget of Jira. Besides choosing a filter to show issues from, it supports showing the columns in 3 ways:
- User: the columns shown are inherited from the logged in users default column settings.
- Filter: the columns shown are inherited from the selected filter
- Custom: the columns can be chosen.
Furthermore a column can be selected as default sorting column.
The Me Mentioned gadget shows issues where the logged in user has been mentioned in (for some days back, which is configurable). It's vital for users that they dont miss discussions on Jira issues concerning them.
