Trello Calendar View no longer nice!

[Alex Figgett]

Hello Community,

Hope you're well?

We've come in this morning to find that the Calendar View in Trello has changed, and now all of our entries are squished into a single line of text and the labels cannot be viewed altogether as we could previously.

This isn't as much of a problem for me as the entries I look at are heavily filtered so I can get away with using the Week view, but my Logistics Manager is currently pulling her hair out as she isn't able to easily look at the entries for each day as she could before.

Does anyone know if there is a simple way for us to revert the calendar view back to it's nice easy-to-manouvre view or if we are stuck with this new view going forwards? 😊

Thanks in advance!

Alex

Hi @Alex Figgett 

This is from the Trello product team:

In the past couple of years, a lot of Trello was rewritten to make it more efficient to maintain and make improvements. A lot of effort goes into each part of the rewrite, so we decided only to rewrite the Calendar View and not the Power-Up, with the goal of eventually consolidating the code for efficiency, and that's what's happening now.We've been monitoring the feedback and have already addressed some of the top complaints — for example, quick edit has been reinstated, and it's possible again to drag checklist items on the calendar. Most of the top remaining complaints are related to information being truncated — this is due to how the Calendar View is structured, but we're considering options for improving this. It won't be possible to address every complaint, but the goal is to cover all of the major ones and to eventually bring these improvements to the Calendar View as well.

Thanks Mike, doesn't sound too hopeful for a rollback!

We'll keep our fingers crossed 😊
