Trello not letting me make a personal board.

[zahmbie1]

Whenever I try and make a personal board, the creation UI does not let me create a new personal board, and there is no drop-down to set it to personal.

Hi @zahmbie1 ,

Welcome to the community!

If you are a free user then delete the team that you have created! after that you will able to create a personal board.

Or you can make the board private.

This isn’t going to work for long as a workaround. All boards will be in a team/workspace. 

You can still set the board to be private but the board will need to be in a team. 

Essentially teams will be renamed workspaces. 
All boards will be in workspaces. 
A board just for you will be a private board (in the workspace).

what's going to be the board limit for those workplaces?

Workspaces is just a new name for teams so it is the same as now - 10 active boards.

Hi, so I did not see an announcement, but I cannot set up Personal boards any more, that has been descoped?

I have a team and can now have a max 10 boards on the free version. 

Couldn't you have emailed e to say the terms and considions have changed for personal boards? I would suggest you do that if you are looking to move to a more aggressive freemium model. I imagine the security angle would be just cause for example. 

I am trying to get work to adopt as they use many other Atlassian products, just not Trello.

thanks
