How to Add a Column

To create a new Column on your EasyKAD™ Kanban Board, follow these steps:

Step 1: Open the EasyKAD™ Kanban Board and click the green Edit Board Layout button in the right side panel.

Step 2: Click a light blue + rectangle button in the column header.

Three options to add a new column:

1. Clicking a vertical + rectangle button on the left will add one column to the left;
2. Clicking a vertical + rectangle button on the right will add one column to the right;
3. Clicking a horizontal + rectangle button at the base of the column header will add the first sub-column below.

A new column will appear with a live preview, however this column is only a draft.  In this draft state no changes have been actioned nor recorded in the Board history.  If the internet connection is lost or internet browser tab/window is closed, changes in Draft are permanently lost and cannot be recovered.

Step 3B:  OR Undo/remove the drafted new column.

If you no longer want to apply the drafted column/s in preview, there are two options:

a) Archive the drafted column/s – this option removes only the added column/s from the draft you choose, but provides the option of going on to Save other changes that may also have been drafted within the same Edit Board Layout session.

To archive a drafted column, Click the Column Settings button, then the Archive Column button.

Option #2) Discard all draft changes – this option erases all drafted changes including the added column/s in preview.  This action cannot be undone.

To Discard all drafted changes, click the Discard button in the green right sidebar.

A notification to confirm this discarding of drafted changes will be displayed and the draft columns will be removed from the preview.

Step 4: Click the Close Board Layout button in the green right sidebar.
The options are to either:
Option #1) Continue drafting more edits to the kanban board layout; or
Option #2) Click Close Board Layout button to exit board edit mode return to the normal board view.
