Ability to switch boards in widget

Lemon glacier Badger

It seems as though you can't switch between board when using the widget so we're not able to use multiple boards as a result :(

Hi everybody,

Same here: would be nice to have a "re-render" method on the Canny object and change the board token.

For the time being i'm deleting the Canny iframe programmatically and I call Canny('Render',...) again.

		const cannyIframe = document.getElementById('canny-iframe');
		if (cannyIframe) {
			cannyIframe.remove();
		}
		this._renderCanny(newBoardToken);

Hey Kris, if you're looking for a multi-board experience, you've got two options:
– Use your Canny subdomain (or set it up on a custom subdomain on your website)
– Build a multi-board flow yourself (eg. https://kitsu.io/feedback/feature-requests/)

Andrew Rasmussen: Thanks. I didn't notice they had the tabs set up to go to the different boards. That would certainly work.

Andrew Rasmussen: Hi Andrew, as for the mobile SDK this is a serious issue for us. We want to send users to the list of boards and give them nice UX just like for the web. Kitsu app had to put 3 different buttons in the app (one for each board) and we don't like this idea. 
As for using the subdomain—in the in-app web-view frame users won't have useable navigation buttons to go back say from a specific post back to the list of posts in the board. No "forward" button, too (that's what people have in the browser and what makes the experience totally useable. 
Can we expect that you guys will upgrade your mobile SDK with this anytime soon?
