Numbers in the Kanban module

I couldn’t find any information on why there are numbers in the Kanban module. I noticed Kan.ban doesn’t have any numbers (or at least they’re not visible).

I also noticed that it is sharing the same number pool as the Issues module. I guess in the grand scheme of things it doesn’t matter that the numbers are non-sequential, but I was quite confused until I figured out what was going on.

I’m looking for a clear explanation to this.

Thank you

Every instance type gets the numbers from the same sequence number id generator.

This link to a thread where we changed our self hosted taiga to add the id of each instance type to the description makes the numbering system easier to understand. Adding the id as a prefix of the title of a created elements - #6 by Charlie

Yes, as noted above, I had already figured that part out.

Is there a way to hide the numbers in the Kanban module? I don’t see a use case to have them visible.

Sorry I missed that.

If you self-host you could change the css or more on the front end to hide it.

There was a post that someone made about customising their own front end. I think this is it. Is it possible to 'extend' Coffeescript and Jade components of taiga-front
