Saved views for repository issues - public preview and adjustable row heights

[sunnyi101]

savedview.mp4

If you manage issues in a busy repo, you know how much time goes into re-applying the same filters every day. You filter down to unassigned bugs, work through them, then rebuild the same filter tomorrow. Multiply that across a team and everyone is recreating the same searches over and over.

Saved views for repository issues are now available in public preview. Set up a filtered view once, save it, and everyone on the repo can use it. No extra tooling, no workflow changes. We've also added adjustable row heights in Projects so you can fit more information into your tables.

How it works

Anyone with triage access or above can create shared views like Unassigned bugs, Needs triage, or Customer-reported issues. Set them up once, and the whole team gets the same view.

• Saved views live in the new Issues sidebar, alongside quick links like Assigned to me, Created by me, Mentioned, and Recent activity
• The sidebar gives GitHub Projects a new home, so it's easier to move from Issues into your planning views
• You can save up to 25 views per repository, so teams can cover the searches they run most
• Milestones and Labels are now easier to reach from the same sidebar

The goal is simple: stop rebuilding the same searches, and give your team one shared place to find the issues that matter.

📐 Adjustable row heights in Projects

rowheighths.mp4

You can now set the row height in Projects table layouts. Open the view options, pick the row height option, and choose between Single, Medium, Tall, or Extra Tall.

Taller rows give cells more room for longer titles, labels, and extra fields without truncation. The setting only affects the table layout, and you can save it as part of a view so it sticks for everyone.

💬 Feedback

We're actively iterating on this and your input directly shapes what comes next. We'd love to hear:

1. Are saved views easy to set up and share across your team?
2. Does the new sidebar make it easier to find the issues and projects that matter most?
3. Do the row height options give you the right amount of space in your tables?

Share feedback, report issues, or suggest ideas in this discussion.

No Issue view is working for me, they always fail to load but not when using the normal issues page with the same search terms

[sunnyi101]

We're actively fixing this!

It would be nice to have an option to hide this sidebar.

[arp242]

If you're using Stylus or some such:

div[class^="CollapsibleSidebar-module"] { display:none !important; }

[Vangelis66]

... And if you're using uBlock Origin (MV2) on Firefox:

github.com##.CollapsibleSidebar-module__sidebar__X5thL

(custom cosmetic filter)

[joshuataylor]

For ublock, try the below, as it can handle when the CSS renaming changes, and only for the issue page:

github.com##html:has(head > meta[name="route-pattern"][content="/:user_id/:repository/issues(.:format)"]) [class*="CollapsibleSidebar-module__sidebar"]

This goes along with my other "unfuck Github" rules, such as making the "View File" work as it should https://github.com/orgs/community/discussions/54962

[loukad]

@bytaesu at least you can collapse it 😅

The collapse doesn't persist across sessions. This should be a setting.

[marcindulak]

I would like to suggest a modification to the original comment that started this thread, by adding the word permanently and globally (for all repos I'm vewing).

It would be nice to have an option to hide this sidebar permanently and globally.

[romgerman]

There is no way to disable this feature preview in the "Feature Preview" setting dialog.

[msfredb7]

Minor feedback: I'd like to see my views directly in the sidebar to save 1 click. The goal of views is to save clicks, but having to click twice might result in me being to lazy to use them.

NB: The views I'm creating are nothing crazy big.

[ta-hoshino]

I agree with this opinion as well.

If I were to add one suggestion, it would be to allow users to choose which views appear in the sidebar. The reason is that always displaying views that are not used frequently but are needed occasionally can make the sidebar feel cluttered.

[nikitabobko]

Even better: make it possible to see the view as a tab alongside 'Issues', 'Pull requests' saving yet another click

[AThousandShips]

The sidebar keeps popping out to full size before collapsing each time the page reloads which makes it very disruptive, it also takes up excessive space on small screens, I think this should be something you can disable

[AThousandShips]

Also the folding of the side bar is not remembered across multiple tabs, which makes it very impractical when navigating the website, for example opening just closed issues or filtering by a specific tag

[CST1229]

Extremely minor nitpick: I don't like how the sidebar pushes away the rest of the issues page, making the page off-center, even when collapsed. It's just mildly annoying to me. Not sure how this should be fixed, or if it even should be 'fixed'. (One of: option to hide the sidebar entirely, center the page when collapsed, center the page always, or don't change anything)

Though I DO like how it finally gives a rather discoverable-ish way to get to the milestones page, instead of "edit the URL to add /milestones".

[glen-84]

Not minor in my opinion, and something that so many UIs get wrong.

Just have the sidebar float, so that it doesn't affect the positioning of the main content (reduce the main content width if necessary).

I find it very awkward like this.

[srnyx]

I think moving the sidebar to the right side and then keeping the main content (issues list/etc.) still centered would look a lot better. (and decreasing the width of the main content of course to accomodate the sidebar)

It would feel too squished if the sidebar was on the left and the main content was still centered. But with the sidebar on the right, the issue titles/metadata is no longer near the sidebar, creating a natural separation, rather than a forced one.

This of course impacts the expected "sidebar on the left" design. But, I do think it makes some sense to have it on the right, as individual issue pages have their sidebars (assignees, labels, projects, etc.) on the right too.

Thanks for understanding!

[opwise-Jeff]

Ability to set one view as the default view for issues for that repo would make this an awesome addition!

[michael-conrad]

HOW DO YOU DISABLE THIS EVIL THING COMPLETELY?

[connorshea]

it'd be nice if the sidebar were collapsible globally so I don't have to re-collapse it on every repo.

[sunnyi101]

Thank you for the feedback! We're going to be resolving this soon

[bomeejung]

Love the new views. Is it possible to have a dynamic filter criterion (like, milestone:latest for the most recently created or milestone:due)?
The link to Projects doesn't add anything IMHO.

[Hamham6]

EDIT: This is on Firefox 150, macOS 15.7.5
If the display is wide enough that the sidebar doesn't automatically collapse, but not wide enough that it gets placed properly next to the issues, then this illegible overlapping off the sidebar and the issues happens. In addition, the sidebar gets pushed way up if you scroll up, so there is just the sidebar and blank space with nothing there.

[sunnyi101]

Thank you we are actively investigating this!

[Hamham6]

The "report issues" link to here on the sidebar and the active responses from the author are very convenient and appreciated!

[sunnyi101]

Appreciate it!

[ArthurKun21]

Please make it remember if I collapsed it or not, so that whenever I go to another repo's issue it would remember it and I don't have to toggle it again

[michael-conrad]

Are they taking hints from netobjects fusion for websites from the late 90's?

A saved list shouldn't be two clicks away from the issues page. I want them to be able to be pinned to the sidebar, otherwise fast to get to.

[adamkdean]

Not a fan of this side bar. Everything is off centre. Please allow removing it.

[lcy111-rgb]

有人知道，在studio中手动调整图层位置等数据后，不被记录成新的动画帧么？

[RafalSkolasinski]

I don't like the sidebar, things gets cluttered, it was nice and clear before. Why we cannot just add these nice filters at the top.

[leofang]

I hate the sidebar. It's distracting as it makes everything right-shifted instead of centered, but only in the issue tab. Also I don't use any buttons there. Please at least provide a toggle to turn it off.

[jacopotediosi]

Worst UI ever seen, thx GitHub.

[mike-cooper-fsg]

I love this but not for issues, for PRs! Why is it not available on PRs tab? We don't use github issues but I am able to use the same filters I want in the Issues views to filter and see PRs and works great, just need to duplicate this functionality for PRs. Make it work just like VS Code GitHub with save query views under PRs - see screenshot. For all the griping about sidebar, just make it collapseable or hideable.

[mike-cooper-fsg]

To other's points, the UI is terrible. For such an important site not sure why it is seemingly purposely bad and cryptic UI. Maybe the thought is if you can actually operate Git then nothing else should be a challenge. 🙁

[joaovitoras]

I would like to create my personal views without sharing them with the entire repository participants

[wangmangguo555-del]

Do I need to configure it through a configuration file when using it on mobile devices, or is it already adapted to the mobile device by default?

[eps1lon]

There are no more checkboxes for bulk closing once your filter includes PRs. That alone is reason for me to switch back to the old view. You'll reach this view when you click on the label in a PR.

To be honest i prefer the old view, the sidebar take too much space.

My first reaction when loading the issues this morning was: "What the hell is wrong?"

Leave people the option to configure it, if someone likes it they can keep it, but don't force people to use it.

To anyone that don't like it: If you use ublock origin, or similar, you can create a rule to block it, and make it disappear.

[Reiddragon]

This just didn't have to be a sidebar. All of those buttons belong next to the search bar, either in a new line right bellow it, or in a drop down menu to the left of the New Issue button.

[mlwyatt]

I think the saved views will be useful, but I found a bug. The issues page filtered to the same search query show custom issue fields in the results while the saved views do not
