How to move the first list in a board (no mather the name of the list) with butler

Skiltavdeling September 9, 2020

I need to move the first list from the left to the last list to the right called "arkivert" (norwegian) :) 

How can I do that with butler? I only find a specific list name , and my list change every day (its dates)

@Skiltavdeling you can use the list name like "Stable Bit {*}" where "Stable Bit" doesn't change and the date is at the end of the list name. So for example if your list was named:

"Work on 9/9/2020"

then you could create a board button like:

move list "Work on {*}" to the bottom position

Hi

this means that i have to change the name of the list every time every new day/date.  and that ruins the point of my question.

is there possible to move the list from left to right with an easy rule or power up without me have to change the name every day?

@Skiltavdeling you said:

"I only find a specific list name , and my list change every day (its dates)"

So my impression was that the list name was already changing every day and already had a date in it. But then you said:

"...without me have to change the name every day?"

Why would you be changing the name of the list every day if the list name is already changing every day?

Skiltavdeling September 10, 2020

@Skiltavdeling I can't see any picture here, maybe it didn't upload correctly?

Your original question said:

"I need to move the first list from the left to the last list to the right"

from your most recent comment it sounds like you're actually wanting to move a card from a list named like "8.september-mandag" to a list called "arkivert" is that correct?

A picture might help, but also if you restate the original requirement making it clear whether or not the item you want to move is a list or a card, and under what conditions it needs to move and how it's named I'll be better placed to offer a solution.

i have a list of "to do" every day.

 

i want to move every card in that list to "archived" 2 days after its done.

 

im so sorry that im hopelessly bad to explain myself :)

@Skiltavdeling okay maybe this command is what you're looking for:

every day, move all the cards in list "{date-2d~D.MMMM}-mandag" to list "arkivert", and archive list "{date-2d~D.MMMM}-mandag"

that will move all the cards from "8.september-mandag" to list "arkivert" on 10 september (it also archives the list " 8.september-mandag" which you may or may not want).

The formatting of the date comes from here:
