Add/Delete Container

Container Color and Icon

  • add rows below or above the chosen row

  • delete the chosen row.

The new row will have the same number of columns as the chosen row.

  • add columns in the current row to the left or right of the chosen column

  • delete the chosen column in the current row

Adding or deleting a column only occurs in the current row.

This can be used to create an asymmetrical board.

  • add a container to the current row or column

You can add more than one container to a row if the board is configured to allow this.

  • delete the current chosen container


  • add a color scheme from a drop-down menu to a chosen container

  • add an icon from a drop-down menu to a chosen container.

Icons can also be added to a container by adding the URL for the link to the icon image file.

  • Displays the text entry boxes to add footers and headers to each column and row


Be careful when adding and deleting rows or columns on a board. If you wish to create your own board from an existing board it is best to copy the board and design your new board in the duplicate.

You can also drag and drop to move containers to new rows or columns.

Save the changes to add the updates to the draft page.

Choose Update to view the board on the published page.
