## Pages
- [Board fields](https://docs.virtosoftware.com/docs/kanban-board-on-premises/kanban-board-settings/cards-setup/board-fields/index.md) — Add the fields a board needs to a custom list right from the board settings, without leaving the app.
- [Comments](https://docs.virtosoftware.com/docs/kanban-board-on-premises/kanban-board-settings/cards-setup/comments/index.md) — Comments on tasks; a quick board gets the KanbanComments field in its source list by default.
- [Full view](https://docs.virtosoftware.com/docs/kanban-board-on-premises/kanban-board-settings/cards-setup/full-view/index.md) — The full view is the create and edit form: choose which list fields it shows and how it opens.
- [Short view](https://docs.virtosoftware.com/docs/kanban-board-on-premises/kanban-board-settings/cards-setup/short-view/index.md) — The short view is the tooltip that opens on a card; its fields and their order are set here.
- [Styles](https://docs.virtosoftware.com/docs/kanban-board-on-premises/kanban-board-settings/cards-setup/styles/index.md) — Set the body, border and font colours of task cards so the board matches your own visual scheme.
- [Task information](https://docs.virtosoftware.com/docs/kanban-board-on-premises/kanban-board-settings/cards-setup/task-information/index.md) — Choose the field that becomes the card title and the rest of the information a card displays.
