Folders

Folders in YouDesign Models provide a hierarchical structure within Teamspaces, enabling logical grouping and organization of boards. This structure allows you to better manage content by creating, moving, or deleting folders as needed.

Creating Folders

To create a folder:

1. Hover over a Teamspace or Folder and click the + button.

2. Select Folder from the menu.

3. To create a sub-folder, click the + button on the parent folder.

4. Rename the folder as required.

Tip: Use a hierarchical folder structure to organize boards by department, project phase, or topic for easy navigation.

Moving Folders

To move a folder to a different location:

1. Click the … (More Options) icon on the folder you want to move.

2. Select Move to from the menu.

3. Choose the new location for the folder.

4. Click Move to confirm the action.

Tip: Moving folders helps you reorganize content as your projects evolve or structure changes.

Deleting Folders

To delete a folder:

1. Hover over the folder to be deleted.

2. Click the … (More Options) icon.

3. Select Delete from the menu.

4. Confirm by clicking the Delete button in the confirmation dialog.

⚠️ Important: Deleting a folder will also delete all boards and sub-folders contained within it. Make sure you want to permanently remove this content before confirming deletion.

Folder Organization Best Practices

• Create a Logical Structure: Organize folders by project, team, or timeline to make content easy to find.

• Use Descriptive Names: Name folders clearly so team members understand their purpose at a glance.

• Maintain Consistency: Keep folder naming and structure consistent across your teamspaces.

• Limit Nesting Depth: While sub-folders are supported, try to keep folder nesting to 2-3 levels for easier navigation.

Tip: Regularly review your folder structure to ensure it remains aligned with your team's organizational needs.
