Link to a public board.

Question

I am setting up a board for others, the majority will not be Trello users, to view the board by a shared link. Is there a limit on how many views or persons that can view this board. It would be a board for highway closures or lane closures that truck drivers could view to see this information when planning a trip. Would this be a good use for a public board? Or any rules against using a Trello Gold account for this purpose?

Will have to try that. Thanks.

Hi @Tom Wade ,

You can use a map with Trello: https://trello.com/power-ups/5ad892c30b141641d32919bf/map

Just add the power-up to your board, and off you go.

A map based view would be easier to read and locate a closure or restriction but requires more time to keep up to date or add a location. With Trello using custom fields to show the start and end date of the closure of a road or restriction on the face of the card and using Butler to delete or archive a card once the due date (due date is the end of the restriction or closure) is past will help with keeping it up to date. I get updates for road closures and restrictions from the state site by email and it is easier to create a card and copy and paste a picture of the detour and/or location on the card then to put the location on a map with the information needed to show the time frame. During this time of year, there may be 1 to 10 new or updates for road construction. Thanks for your reply.
