# Board Configuration Guide

> Learn how to configure Boards in Suggix, including general settings, public view options, custom forms, tags, and deletion.

# 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

<Info>
  A single workspace 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 Requests`
* Use a clear and descriptive name that reflects the Board's purpose

### URL

The public access path for this Board.

* Format: `https://your-workspace.suggix.com/{board-slug}`
* You only need to edit the slug, for example `feature-requests`

<Tip>
  If the Board is already shared publicly, avoid changing the URL to prevent breaking existing links.
</Tip>

### 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, public roadmaps, or archived feedback.

### Allow anonymous users to post

When enabled:

* Users can submit feedback without logging in
* Posts are marked as submitted by anonymous users

<Warning>
  Allowing anonymous posts may increase spam. Review public submissions regularly if this option is enabled.
</Warning>

### Show voters and comment likers

When enabled:

* Users can see who voted on a post
* Users can see who liked comments

Use this when public identity is important for community discussion. Disable it if you want voting and comment reactions to feel more private.

### Show votes count on posts

When enabled:

* Posts display their total vote count
* Users can quickly identify popular requests
* Your team can use votes as one input for prioritization

<Check>
  Once saved, these changes immediately affect the public Board view.
</Check>

## 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`
* Example: `Submit Feedback`

The live preview shows how the submission form will appear to users.

<Tip>
  Clear placeholder text significantly improves the quality of submitted feedback.
</Tip>

## Tags

Tags help categorize and filter posts within a Board.

* Click **Add Tag** to create new tags.
* Use tags for feature areas, priority levels, product modules, or customer segments.
* Examples: `UI`, `API`, `High Priority`, `Enterprise`

<Info>
  Consistent tag usage makes feedback easier to manage and analyze over time.
</Info>

## Danger Zone

### Delete Board

Permanently deletes the Board.

<Warning>
  Deleting a Board is irreversible:

  * All posts, comments, and votes will be permanently removed.
  * The public URL will stop working immediately.
</Warning>

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