Jenkins 2.7, Dashboard 2.9.10, Folder 5.11
After upgrading Jenkins from 1.658 to 2.7 and Dashboard View Plugin from 2.9.7 to 2.9.10, the folders do not appear in a job list created in the Dashboard View.
Steps to reproduce :
- Jenkins with Folder and Dashboard plugins
- Create a folder
- Create a dashboard view and use regular expression ".*" to include all jobs.
Playing with other filters, or manually selecting the folders to display doesn't work either.

After investigations I guess one of the following fixes is causing the folders to disappear:
Ensure that ${jobs} is really a Collection<Job>

[FIXED JENKINS-21578] Ensure that ${jobs} is really a Collection<Job>
https://github.com/jenkinsci/dashboard-view-plugin/commit/baa8c5043072c6cc7a3cf44f002d55befd86f1c5
Workaround
As a temporary workaround you could check the checkbox `Recurse in subfolders` on your view and you would be able to select jobs within your `Folder` project. It also works if you use Regex for your view.

I removed the Last Success Version plugin as its added column doesn't produce a working link any longer. But, uninstalling the plugin left the default All view with the broken column. I tried to replace the default view with a simple Job List but cannot get the nested folder structure provided by the default All view due to this issue.

why was this bug with priority "minor"?
this is an important problem - it is impossible to display folders on the dashboard in any convenient way.

this is an important problem - it is impossible to display folders on the dashboard in any convenient way. Same issue here with Jenkins 2.289.3 , Dashboard View 2.17 and Folders 6.16.
Folders in view are not visible after adding them in configuration.
Only if I use the "Recurse in subfolders", I can see the sub-jobs but this is not what I want.

Same problem here with Dashboard View 2.9.10. It doesn't seem to be related to how the jobs are chosen for the view (regular expression or explicitly chosen list via checkboxes) – neither works. I downgraded to 2.9.7, which I'd been running previously, and Folders reappeared.
