### Design tools

  
Be careful when adding and deleting rows or columns on a board. If you wish to create your own board from an existing board it is best to copy the board and design your new board in the duplicate.

> ℹ️ You can also drag and drop to [move containers](https://appfire.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/CBCSL/pages/642224909) to new rows or columns.

**Save** the changes to add the updates to the draft page.

Choose **Update** to view the board on the published page.

> ℹ️ If you need more than one copy of a board template in a space, you need to change the name of the added board.

In a space, boards with the same name are linked. Linked boards will show the same information and if cards change on one of the linked boards, all other boards are updated.

### **Edit the board filters**

The board content displayed can be filtered based on page labels and location.
