# Roadmap Portal

> Learn how users view roadmap items grouped by post status in the public portal.

The Roadmap portal gives users a public view of product progress. It is connected to Posts: roadmap cards are feedback posts grouped by their current status.

When your team changes a post status in the dashboard, that post moves to the matching roadmap column.

## Public roadmap view

The public roadmap is a board-style view grouped by status, such as `Backlog`, `Planned`, and `In Progress`.

Each card can show:

* Vote count
* Board name
* Priority
* Due date
* Post title

Users can scan the roadmap to understand what your team is considering, planning, and actively building.

<Info>
  Roadmap items are posts. To change where an item appears, update the post status from the dashboard.

## Filter the roadmap

Users can filter the public roadmap to find relevant items faster.

Available public filters include:

* **Keywords**: Search by text.
* **Board**: Limit results to a specific feedback board.
* **Priority**: Focus on items by priority.

Use clear titles, board names, priorities, and due dates so the roadmap is easy for users to understand at a glance.

## How users interact with roadmap items

Roadmap cards link back to the related post. From the post detail page, users can:

* Read the full request
* Vote on the item
* Comment or reply
* See status, priority, tags, and due date
* Follow discussion from your team

This keeps roadmap communication connected to the original feedback thread.

## Public roadmap best practices

* Keep statuses current so the public roadmap reflects real progress.
* Use due dates only when timing is reliable enough to share.
* Keep titles concise and user-facing.
* Add comments when an item changes direction or timing.
* Close or complete stale items instead of leaving them in planned states indefinitely.
