Include cards with NO due date in search results?

[Matt Coysten]

Is there a way of including cards without a due date in search results?

I want to see all cards due today and no due date (as some cards simply don't need a specific due date).

Thanks

@Matt Coysten this isn't exactly a published strategy but the search parameter:

-due:incomplete

appears to do it. This says "items without an incomplete due date", which appears to apply to cards that don't have a due date at all. It will probably also catch cards that have a completed due date.

That appears to do the trick, thank you.

Now I just need to find a way to combine it with due today (which I think is beyond the capabilities of Trello search, unfortunately).

@Matt Coysten yep, looks like those two searches combine to zero. Here's a Trellinator script that will create a combined array of all open cards on a board either due within 24 hours or with no due date, and then add them to a Google Sheet with a link to the card:

That's peaked my interest... I've never heard of Trellinator before... I'll have to put aside some time to have a ready through the links. Thank you.

Hi Matt,

when you click on the filter icon next to the search bar, you get a menu what you can filter.

Scroll down, and there are options for due dates for cards. You can select "due in the next day" and "has no due date" at the same time. - Does that answer your question?

Thank you. That's not quite what I was looking for. I want to incorporate it into a search rather than a filter.
