Admin roles, themes and labels visuals, view settings, and more
Admin roles
Paid customers now have access to admin roles. You now have to be an admin to access billing, invite new users to the organization, set up integrations, and more. You will always receive a warning in the UI if you are not an admin and try to perform an action that requires admin privileges.
Admins will not have access to or see private spaces unless they are invited.
To view and edit admins, go to "Organization settings" and click on the "Members" section.
Toggle metadata
You can now toggle the metadata you will see on boards and the roadmap. Press the new "View options" button next to the notification bell, and you can turn metadata on and off. These settings are per user, so changing them for yourself won't affect your teammates.
Themes and labels visuals
We have changed how labels and themes are rendered, now making themes more visually prominent compared to labels. This should provide a clear visual hierarchy of themes → labels → other metadata.
Let us know how that works for you!
Beta features
Public boards
Do you want to share your boards publicly or with users who don't have access to Kitemaker? We currently have a public board feature in beta. It opens up boards and anyone can view the board through a special link. You can also toggle to share metadata and decide if all work items (including the ones that are not publicly shared) should be visible on the board.
If you’re interested in trying this out, send us a mail at hi@kitemaker.co or ping us on our community Slack!
