check lists order

[Rebecca Matthews]

Hi, I have 1 card that I update with a check list daily. How can I get the new list to auto populate on top instead of defaulting to the bottom where I have to scroll all the way down and pull it up past many many many older check lists....

Thanks!

Hi @Rebecca Matthews 

This can be really easily done using a tool like Make (make.com) or Zapier

My preference is Make and I am a make "expert".  If you choose to use Make, I can share the automation blueprint for you to copy/paste into a new Make scenario:

This simple Make scenario will watch for new checklists and when a new checklist is added to a card, will move it to the top of the card.

1. Sign up to Make (click link above)
2. Go to Create Scenario
3. Copy the text below
4. In the Make scenario do ctrl+v to paste this in
5. Connect your Trello account
6. Save and enable the scenario

You can drag and drop checklist items to rearrange them in any order.

That’s literally the issue I’m complaining about. Once I get 30 days in that’s an awful lot of dragging to have to do…
