Visible Trello Cards Creation Date Automation

[Daniel Zubrickiy]

Hi! The thing is that in my whole Trello board I am guided by cards creation dates. When I create a new card I always type the creation date in the beginning of card name field like this: [05.15.19]. And I really wish to automate it because that is such a hindrance while I create 10+ cards every day and delete 10+ cards every day. 

Is there a way to automate a date marking on trello cards and make it noticable in the same time?

@Daniel Zubrickiy sure you could use Butler to create a command something like:

When a card is created set the title to "[{date}] {triggercardname}"

Great! Made a rule when the card is created to rename title to suggested "[{date}] {triggercardname}" and it did perfectly what I wanted. Many thanks @Iain Dooley !

I am completely new to Trello. I'm having trouble figuring out how to implement this terrific solution. Can someone provide step-by-step directions?

Or, if that is too cumbersome, point me in a direction that will help? I really need to get this creation date active on our boards. Thank you!

Can the date type be changed? Currently I get the English [February 21, 2025] and I would like it to be [21.01.2025] or [21.01.25].
