I have several top level views. One of them is my default view called "Default", as specified in the Jenkins Configuration "Default View" popup.

It is not possible to add a sub view to that default view. When I click on "New view", it will insert the new view into the top level.

This is because the URL for the default view is "/", instead of "/view/<view name>" as it is for all other views. So when I click on New View, I get "/newView" instead of "/view/<view name>/newView", which will create a new top level view of course.

The only way to create a sub view in the default view is to enter that url manually.

Solution:

• The URL of the "New View" entry in the menu should be "/view/<view name>/newView". This will create the new view in the correct place.
• For creating a new top level view, we already have the + button to the right of the tab list
