Hi,

I’d like to suggest a small change that would make a big impact in my daily Trello workflow.

 

Duplicating cards is something I do constantly (weekly planning, unfinished tasks, recurring work).

Right now it takes several UI steps, and while each one is simple, the repetition creates noticeable friction. Shortcuts like CTRL+C CTRL+V create a copy at the end of the list (I don't want to scroll to see it, EVERY TIME, I want it upfront.

 

What would be extremely useful is a one-step action to duplicate a card directly below the current one — for example:

 

  • a quick menu action

  • or a keyboard shortcut

  • or a contextual button near other card actions

 

 

This wouldn’t change Trello’s logic, but it would make it much faster for iterative workflows where copying a card is intentional and frequent.

 

At the moment, duplicating a card feels slower than it should for such a common action.

Even a minimal shortcut here would significantly improve efficiency.

 

Curious if others feel the same...

Bye from Italy
Marco
