Spaces & Boards. Your club wiki and Kanban in one

Q: What’s the difference between a Space and a Board?

A Space is the knowledge container (for example, board committee or projects), and a Board is the workspace inside it. You can create as many Boards per Space as you like. Each with its own view, its own members and its own access rights. Typical setup: one Board for current tasks and one for completed items within the same Space.

Q: Is Spaces really a Trello alternative?

Yes — and that’s the core idea. Kanban boards with drag & drop cards, columns per progress stage, tags, priority, assignments, comments and attachments work just like the Trello workflow. The difference: it doesn’t depend on yet another tool, it lives in the same system where your member list , invoices and communication are.

Q: How do we control who can do what?

Per Board, you define four roles: Reader (read only), Commenter (read and own comments), Editor (create, move, edit cards) and Owner (everything plus moderate other people’s comments, copy cards between Spaces). You can add members individually or via category expansion like “all board members”.

Kanban, list, timeline or accordion. One platform for board agendas, club wiki, project boards, release notes and public FAQs. Integrated Trello alternative, without a second tool.

Where do you put all that club knowledge?

Club knowledge usually sits where nobody is looking right now: in old WhatsApp groups, scattered Google Docs, personal notes of the club president. If the treasurer steps down, half the bookkeeping routine disappears with them. When a new person joins the board, they start from zero.

Spaces is the place where everything lives that a club knows about itself. Regulations and statutes, meeting minutes with decisions, an FAQ for new members, annual planning as a Kanban board, an editorial plan for the club magazine. Everything searchable and directly linked with the member list and permissions.

Four views, same data

Each space shows the same articles in four views. With one click you switch between Kanban, list, timeline and accordion, depending on whether you want to see progress, search, plan timelines or look things up by topic.

Kanban, drag&drop like in Trello

Move cards between columns via drag&drop: Backlog, In Progress, Done, or any custom stages you want. Each card shows title, priority, tags, date and assignments at a glance. Perfect for board agendas, project tracking, editorial planning or volunteer shift planning. The modal opens Trello-style with comments, attachments and inline editing. No page reloads.

List, table view for dense boards

Compact table view, grouped by progress stage. Per row: title, tags, priority, date and counters for assignments, attachments and comments. Everything at a glance, without opening cards. Columns can be collapsed so you can focus on what matters. Ideal when you have lots of items per board or for quick scanning.

Timeline, release notes & club history

Chronological vertical timeline, articles grouped by month and year, newest first. Pinned articles move to the top of the month, entries without a date end up at the bottom. Ideal for release notes, club history, year-in-review, or a sponsorship campaign history. If published publicly, it replaces a blog.

Accordion, FAQs & public handbooks

FAQ-style layout: the title is shown as the visible question, the content expands when you click. Articles are grouped by category so even large knowledge collections stay easy to navigate. Perfect for public FAQ pages, internal handbooks, or onboarding tutorials. When set to publicly readable, it replaces expensive support portals and sends SEO signals to Google.

Spaces live in action

DigitalMembers’ public documentation, FAQ, changelog and roadmap all run on Spaces. Each Board uses one of the four views. Check them out live.

Comments, assignments & attachments

Comments under every article, assignments to multiple club members, file attachments, descriptions with Word-like formatting — headings, lists, tables and images. Everything right inside the card. Deleted comments remain visible as a note (soft delete), traceable for audits. Badge counters on each card show at a glance where something’s happening.

Categories, tags, progress & article types

Categories group articles first, tags span across them, progress stages are the columns in your Kanban view, and article types (feature, improvement, bug) describe the kind of change. All structures can be customised freely per space. No IT ticket, no admin training. Once set up, it applies across all boards in the space.

Fine-grained permissions per board

Per board you decide: publicly readable? Who are the board members and with which role? Four roles (Reader, Commenter, Editor, Owner) control who can do what. You add members individually or via category expansion like "all board members". Public boards appear on the web without login.
