The roadmap can group posts by when you expect to ship them rather than by their status. The Month and Quarter views arrange your feedback posts into time columns based on each post’s estimate, giving you and your users a timeline-style plan. Both views read the same field: the post’s estimate. A post only appears in a Month or Quarter column once you give it an estimated date. Posts without an estimate are simply left off these views (they still show up in the Status view).
The estimate is also shown to your users on the public post, so setting it does more than position the card. Set expectations you are comfortable sharing.

Set an estimate on a post

The estimate is a month and year, for example August 2026. There is no day-level precision, because the roadmap plans in months and quarters.

Adjust or clear it later

Reopen the estimate any time to choose a different month, or clear it to remove the post from the Month and Quarter views.
You can also set the estimate while creating a post, and filter your feedback list by it using the Estimated filter described in Filter, sort, and search feedback.

Month view

Open the Group by menu on the roadmap and choose Month to lay posts out across individual months. Each column is one month, and a post sits in the month of its estimate. The Roadmap board in Month view with an Overdue column followed by July, August, and September 2026, each holding a post The view shows a rolling window of upcoming months. Two extra columns bookend it:
  • Overdue collects posts whose estimate has already passed but are not yet complete, so nothing slips through unnoticed.
  • Future collects posts estimated beyond the last month shown in the window.
Month view is best for near-term planning, when you want to see exactly which requests land in which month.

Quarter view

Choose Quarter from the Group by menu to zoom out. Each column is a calendar quarter, and posts are grouped by the quarter their estimate falls in. The Roadmap board in Quarter view with Overdue, Quarter 3 2026 holding three posts, Quarter 4 2026, and Quarter 1 2027 Like Month view, it includes an Overdue column at the start and a Future column at the end. Quarter view suits longer-range planning and higher-level updates, where month-by-month detail is more than your users need.

Moving a post’s timeline

Cards are not draggable in Month or Quarter view. To move a post to a different month or quarter, open it and change its estimate. Dragging between columns only works in Status view, where it changes the post’s status.

Show a timeline roadmap to your users

By default the public roadmap is grouped by status. To make the Month or Quarter layout the one visitors see first, go to Settings → Roadmap and set Default roadmap type to Month-based or Quarter-based. This is covered in The roadmap.
