What is a Board

In Suggix, a Board is the core unit for collecting and displaying user feedback. Each Board usually represents a specific feedback type, such as Feature Requests, Bug Reports, or Ideas. Every Board has its own: • Public URL • Display rules • Submission form • Voting and interaction settings
A single project can contain multiple Boards to organize different kinds of feedback.

General Settings

Board Name

The name of the Board shown in both the admin panel and the public feedback page. • Example: Feature Request • Use a clear and descriptive name that reflects the Board’s purpose

URL

The public access path for this Board. • Format: https://your-project.suggix.com/{board-slug} • You only need to edit the slug (for example, feature-request)
If the Board is already shared publicly, avoid changing the URL to prevent breaking existing links.

Description

A short description displayed at the top of the Board page to explain its purpose. • Example: Got an idea? We’d love to hear it!

Public View

These settings control how the Board is displayed and used by public users.

Read-only

When enabled: • Users can view existing posts only • New posts cannot be created This is useful for announcement Boards or archived feedback.

Allow anonymous users to post

When enabled: • Users can submit feedback without logging in • Posts will be marked as submitted by anonymous users
Allowing anonymous posts may increase spam. Consider enabling moderation if this option is turned on.

Show voters and comment likers

When enabled: • Displays the list of users who voted on a post • Shows users who liked comments

Show votes count on posts

When enabled: • Displays the total number of votes on each post • Helps the community quickly identify high-priority feedback
Once saved, these changes immediately affect the public Board view.

Custom Forms

Customize the text users see when creating a new post.

Title Placeholder

Placeholder text for the post title input field. • Example: Briefly describe your idea

Details Placeholder

Placeholder text for the post details input field. • Example: Add more context, screenshots, or use cases

Button Text

The text displayed on the submission button. • Example: Create Post, Submit Feedback A live preview showing exactly how the submission form will appear to users.
Clear and guiding placeholder text significantly improves the quality of submitted feedback.

Tags

Tags help categorize and filter posts within a Board. • Click Add Tag to create new tags • Common use cases include feature areas, priority levels, or product modules (for example, UI, API, High Priority)
Consistent tag usage makes feedback easier to manage and analyze over time.

Danger Zone

Deleting a Board is irreversible:
  • All posts, comments, and votes will be permanently removed

Make sure the Board is no longer needed before deleting it.
