I'm trying to use Trello as a single user to organize home school website resources. My needs are very simple:
During the Premium trial, I was able to create what appeared to be link cards, where the link was directly clickable from the board. After the trial ended, those links became plain text, and I haven't been able to recreate them.
I'm trying to determine whether upgrading from the Free plan to a paid plan would restore this functionality, and if so, which plan level is required.
I don't need AI features, advanced automation, checklists, or team collaboration tools. The only features I care about are:
Can anyone clarify:
Thank you!
Hi @Jessica H , Welcome to the Community,
Just an addition to @Radwan Almsora response above, you can learn more about the Link cards features here:

Hi Liam, thank you. :)
From what I am understanding on that page, regular websites can't be linked? I'm not needing to connect to things like Dropbox and OneDrive or the other things listed in that table, but directly to curriculum and other supportive pages. (For example mysteryscience dot com. )
I was initially able to set this up during the trial period, with all links active and working flawlessly, which is what is making this so confusing.
(I found Trello as an option when searching for a way to simply organize my bookmarks for homeschooling, in an easy to use, visually-pleasing, logical, ADHD-friendly, preferably free way. It seemed to check all of the boxes, but maybe it doesn't. Open to suggestions for alternatives!)

Things like Dropbox and OneDrive are the supported services whose links also work in Trello link cards.
Other links like the one in your example should work fine too. I have tried to add your link to a card on my personal board, and it'll look like the one below:
No setup is required for this feature; just paste the URL to the card's title.
Hope it helps 🙌

To update for anyone searching with the same issue:
The responses here helped me realize where some of the confusion was coming in. Thank those of you who took the time to respond!
Since I lost the colored columns, I color coded the cards in each column.
This meant changing the type of card so it wasn't displaying a preview and it displays the text of the web address.
In the trial version, for some reason, I could remove the preview and still have a clickable link that is just the text of the web address. It still isn't clear why it will not allow these now.
It appears you can't have any color coding at all, if you want to make link cards in the free version.
